Revelations of the Restoration

Joseph Fielding McConkie and Craig J. Ostler, Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Company, 2000, 6.25x9.25" hardbound, 1218 pages.

Just as Moses heard God’s voice thunder throughout the smoky reaches of Sinai, so today God’s prophets receive revelation and proclaim the mind and will of the Lord. From the Prophet Joseph Smith’s first vision in 1820 to his numerous revelations recorded in the Doctrine and Covenants to the revelations of subsequent prophets, God speaks to his children in these latter days.

In Revelations of the Restoration, authors Joseph Fielding McConkie and Craig J. Ostler place modern revelation in its historical and doctrinal context. Their insightful commentary and detailed explanations help us better understand the meaning of the revelations and the circumstances in which they were given. The inspired insights of prophets and the keen thinking of scholars make this work vital to our study of the restored Church and the guidance it has received from the Lord.

“If Moses stands approved by us for his word and works, certainly one whose fruits are the same should merit the same approbation,” the authors write. “The testimony of this book is that the God who called and spoke to the prophets of the Old and New Testaments is the same God who called and spoke to Joseph Smith.”

By evidencing a never-changing God who remains a God of miracles and who continues to offer important guidance, Revelations of the Restoration reminds us that God loves his children today as much as he loved them anciently.
