Description

From back cover:

"Mormonism Explained lays out clearly what Mormons believe. Chapters on Mormon history are especially enlightening. Jackson shows how Mormonism diverges from orthodox Christianity in key matters of theology, but his tone is that of a careful teacher who seeks to explain rather than merely to debunk."

Dr. Mark D. Roberts
Senior Director and Scholar-in-Residence Laity Lodge
Author of Can We Trust the Gospels?

"The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is a rapidly growing, international religious movement whose leadership allows for more diversity of thought than many outsiders realize. Jackson is aware of these obstacles, has worked hard to overcome them, and has succeeded admirably."

Dr. Craig Blomberg
Distinguished Professor of New Testament
Denver Seminary

"One of the most comprehensive handbooks on the Latter-day Saints in print today. Highly recommended."

Dr. Michael S. Moore
Fuller Theological Seminary,
Arizona State University

"Well-researched, winsome, yet pointed."

David Wayne
Pastor, Glen Burnie Evangelical Presbyterian Church,
Glen Burnie, Maryland
