In 1820, a young farm boy seeking truth has a vision of God the Father and Jesus Christ. Guided by an angel three years later, he uncovers and translates an ancient record, restoring the Savior’s church in the latter days.
Despite opposition and violence, early members of the church embrace restored truths, striving to build Zion and share the gospel with the world.
The Standard of Truth, the first volume in the Saints series, offers a fast-paced, meticulously researched history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, answering the Lord’s call to preserve this history for future generations (Doctrine and Covenants 69:8).
