In the Non-Fiction Corner with Lauren

In the Non-Fiction Corner with Lauren



This short-and-sweet book called “Like Unto Moroni” is perfect for the collection of any student of The Book of Mormon. 

A verse that is very well-known reads, “if all men had been, and were, and ever would be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of hell would have been shaken forever;” and this book tells us exactly why that is true. 

Each chapter focuses on one of the qualities of Moroni that are listed in The Book of Mormon, and tells us what we can learn from Moroni’s example. It also expounds on Moroni’s story and explains what we know about him in a simple way. I enjoyed the chapter on the Title of Liberty, and how Moroni stood up for his people’s freedoms and had to act with boldness. We can do the same today as we stand up for what we believe in and, like Moroni, become defenders of the faith.

Here's the back copy:

Amid the devastation of political and religious strife, there arose a leader so mighty that even thousands of years after his life, he is still lauded as a stalwart example of faith and fortitude. Captain Moroni's acts of heroism and faith in the face of adversity are well documented in the Book of Mormon, and his words and actions stand as an example of spiritual heroism. But who are the Moronis of our day? Who are the bold leaders who have the strength and faith to guide us through these tumultuous last days? The answer to this question is beautifully addressed inLike Unto Moroni. It is you, the faithful Latter-day Saints of this dispensation, who are the great heroes of our day. Individuals who, like Moroni, strive each day to progress in testimony and faith. In learning about the life and legacy of this great Nephite leader, you will learn to tap into your own well of spiritual strength as you fortify your home and family.
