Hallowed Ground, Sacred Journeys: Salt Lake City, Ensign to the Nations transports readers back to nineteenth-century Salt Lake City by painting a picture of the city during the pioneer era, contrasting those bygone scenes with scenes of today. What should visitors see? Where should they go? This book identifies many key sites that remain relatively unknown to those who live in, work in, or visit Salt Lake City. Visitors are struck by the beauty of the downtown area with its wide streets, yet nothing quite captures the magnificent sacrifice of those early pioneers as does the majestic Salt Lake Temple, which took forty years to make. It sits on Temple Square, ten acres of beautifully manicured grounds, and is the best recognized symbol of Salt Lake City. This is also the heart of the worldwide Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS). Millions of visitors from every continent pass through these gates each year, ranking Temple Square in the upper echelon of international tourist attractions. Hallowed Ground, Sacred Journeys also highlights many significant and fascinating pioneer sites beyond Temple Square nestled in downtown Salt Lake City, combining recent images with historical photographs from pioneer times.

His Final Hours traces the final thirty-six hours of the Savior's mortal ministry detailing the events and lessons of the central point in human history.\nWe have the sense of following the Savior through the streets of Jerusalem during the last hours of his life. Beginning with the Savior's triumphal entry into Jerusalem and the Last Supper and culminating with his resurrection and reunion with the Father, Brother Marsh identifies such lessons as handling trials without self-pity, enduring irony, dealing with unreciprocated love and understanding the importance of submitting to the Father's will.\nWe see dramatically that the events of his final hours bear eloquent testimony of the Savior's love and mercy for us, and we more fully understand how his grace can bear us up today. Christ's magnificent example encourages us to take his yoke upon ourselves and strive to develop his pure love.

It has been two thousand years since the Savior "spake..unto the multitude in parables"(Matthew 13:34), but for those with ears to hear, his parables reveal events of the latter-days and expectations he holds for this dispensations and beyond. In Scriptural Parables for the Latter Days, authors Andrew C. Skinner and W. Jeffrey Marsh show that ancient parables contain much more than wise sayings and sound principles. Many parables bear witness of the Restoration, the coming forth of the Book of Mormon, the growth of the latter-day kingdom of God, and events related to the fulness of times.

How do we recognize the voice of the Spirit? How can we detect false or counterfeit "revelation"? How does personal revelation bless our lives?
