Guest lt Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 Hey guys, I was wondering if there are any new church books out there that are good? Here are a few I came up with....... Also what do you think of a book club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 I recently finished reading the History of the Church by Joseph Smith Jr. and am now reading the Comprehensive Histrory of the Church written by B.H. Roberts, and I recommend both of them. I think they're much more interesting than the tidbits of history we get from following the Sunday School curriculum.

Snow Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I borrowed from the Bishop, Sacred Sites - Searching for Book of Mormon Lands, Joseph Allen Ph.D. published by Covenant Recordings, 2003.The book is a beautifully illustrated illustrated book and survey of BoM mesoamerican evidences. If you are fast, you can get through it in a couple of Sacrament Meetings. It's a not terrifically substantive but it did get me interested in the field.Here's a link to an article by the author: http://www.ldsmag.com/articles/030916bofm.html Here's a review: http://farms.byu.edu/display.php?table=review&id=545 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aurora Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 there are a few I'd recommend. The great and the terrible series by Chris Stewart. Seventh seal can't remember the author. O f course those are good if your into end of day and second coming like me. More happy ones are a promise of forever by Anita Stansfield also of goodly parents.

Tammy Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 There are quite a few books that I have enjoyed recently both church and non-church related. I tend to read light mysteries and soul provoking books. Things mostly to inspire me or make me think about life. "In the Potter's Hands" by Camille Fonk " The Peacegiver" by James L. Ferrell I also like books by M.C. Beaton- Agatha Raisin Mysteries, Janet Evanovich, and Ann George. Our ward has a book club and picks a certain book for everyone to read and discuss. Would anyone be interested in that? Side note: I am an assistant Librarian in the public library in a small town, so books are my thing!!!
