Defenders of Faith: The Book of Mormon from a Soldier's Perspective
- Price
- $17.99
Douglas J. Bell, a warrant officer who served in Operation Iraqi Freedom, offers a soldier's commentary on the Book of Mormon's prophet-warriors. Drawing on his experiences in Kuwait and Baghdad, he examines Nephi, Alma the Younger, Ammon, the stripling warriors, Captain Moroni, the Gadianton robbers, Mormon, and Moroni—illuminating their military strategy, courage, and testimonies of Christ. The result blends scriptural exposition with firsthand war-zone insight, framing the 'war chapters' as inspired lessons on liberty, faith, and defending family and country.
- A decorated Iraq War intelligence officer reveals what the Book of Mormon's war chapters really mean
- See Captain Moroni as a battlefield general, not just a scripture hero
- Why did Mormon devote a quarter of the record to war? A soldier answers
- Firsthand parallels between Baghdad 2003 and ancient Nephite battlefields
Perfect for an adult Latter-day Saint who loves the Book of Mormon's war chapters and appreciates military history or has a family connection to military service.
