Looking at the Doctrine and Covenants Again for the Very First Time

"Search these commandments," the Lord himself said of the Doctrine and Covenants, "for they are true and faithful, and the prophecies and promises which are in them shall all be fulfilled." (D&C 1:37.) In Looking at the Doctrine and Covenants Again for the Very First Time, James W. McConkie II provides unique commentary on the most contemporary volume of scripture in the LDS canon. This study companion provides an insightful and faithful approach for all who desire to learn the restored gospel in the context of places and events in the history of the Church. Carefully researched and thoughtfully written, this comprehensive volume organizes resources, important concepts, and fundamental doctrines around sections and places where they were revealed, thus providing essential context to each of the sections in the Doctrine and Covenants. The book provides vital historical information and analysis, making it easier for students and teachers alike to understand the text as it was interpreted at the time it was received. It is a valuable resource for Gospel Doctrine teachers and students, a useful tool for anyone who visits Church history sites, and an indispensable help for parents who genuinely want to teach their children.

<p>The story of Jesus is frequently limited to the telling of the babe of Bethlehem who would die on the cross and three days later triumphantly exit his tomb in resurrected glory. Frequently skimmed over or left aside is the story of the Jesus of Nazareth who confronted systemic injustice, angered those in power, risked his life for the oppressed and suffering, and worked to preach and establish the Kingdom of God—all of which would lead to his execution on Calvary. In this insightful and moving volume, authors James and Judith McConkie turn to the latest scholarship on the historical and cultural background of Jesus to discover lessons on what we can learn from his exemplary life. Whether it be his intimate interactions with the sick, the poor, women, and the outcast, or his public confrontations with oppressive religious, political, and economic institutions, Jesus of Nazareth—the son of a carpenter, Messiah, and Son of God—exemplified the way, the truth, and the life that we must follow to bring about the Kingdom of Heaven.</p>
