Reviews
The debates over the historical origins of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have diverted attention away from the important question Campbell takes up in this important book: What is it about Latter-day Saint teaching and practice that create a unique Christian community with an outsized influence in 21st century America? Campbell’s answers are intriguing and, from the perspective of this Latter-day Saint, spot on. -- Judge Thomas B. Griffith * (ret.) U. S. Court of Appeals for the D. C. Circuit * This book addresses a topic that is both foundational to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and has been neglected in modern scholarship. Campbell has produced a valuable resource for students and scholars hoping to explore the contours of moral life as understood and practiced in the LDS tradition. -- Daniel Becerra * Assistant Professor in the Department of Ancient Scripture, Brigham Young University *
