QUOTE OF THE DAY Russell M. Nelson |
|
“There has never been a time in the history of the world when knowledge of our Savior is more personally vital and relevant to every human soul. Imagine how quickly the devastating conflicts throughout the world—and those in our individual lives—would be resolved if we all chose to follow Jesus Christ and heed His teachings” (“Pure Truth, Pure Doctrine, and Pure Revelation,” 2021 October General Conference).

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY October 9, 2021 |
|
1846 - The last group of Saints (known as the “poor camp”) who had been thrown out of Nauvoo, Illinois, during the “Battle of Nauvoo” and who are camped on the West side of the Mississippi River in terrible conditions, avoid starvation through the “miracle of the quail.” Hundreds of quail land in the camp and are easily caught, providing meat for the starving Saints.

The Pilgrim Hypothesis
America is a country with deep-seated roots of faith planted by pilgrims seeking religious independence. It was these men and women who paved the way for a free nation under God in this promised land but what if those early voyagers were brought here for a much greater purpose? What if their arrival in this new land heralded the fulfillment of ancient prophecy: laying the foundation of a country that would allow for the restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ and the beginning of the gathering of scattered Israel? In The Pilgrim Hypothesis readers are presented with a gripping new investigation by best-selling author and historian Timothy Ballard as he uncovers what the early colonists a people who believed themselves to be the "New Israel" may have known about their role in the restoration of the gospel. Delve into a complex history bridging the centuries and spanning the globe, as each clue leads to one compelling conclusion: history and scripture may be far more intertwined than you've ever realized.
