About this listen

The Book of Mormon is a sacred volume of scripture revered by Latter Day Saints, akin to the Bible. It chronicles Gods interactions with the ancient peoples of the Americas, written by prophets through divine inspiration. The narrative unfolds the stories of two prominent civilizations one that journeyed from Jerusalem in 600 B.C., splitting into the Nephites and the Lamanites, and another originating even earlier, known as the Jaredites, who emerged after the Tower of Babels confusion of languages. Over millennia, these civilizations faced destruction, leaving only the Lamanites, who are considered among the ancestors of Native Americans. A pivotal event in the Book of Mormon is the personal ministry of Jesus Christ among the Nephites shortly after His resurrection. The text presents the core doctrines of the gospel, lays out the plan of salvation, and provides guidance on attaining peace in this life and eternal life thereafter.
