Seven Gospels: The Many Lives of Christ in the Book of Mormon

The Book of Mormon bears witness of Christ’s divinity and atonement. On nearly every page, the core of the gospel―the “good news”―is announced: Jesus Christ was sent by the Father to save the human family through his suffering, death, and resurrection. This powerful testament results, in part, from the wide chorus of diverse voices in the Book of Mormon that witness of the Savior.

In Seven Gospels, disciple-scholars Adam S. Miller and Rosalynde F. Welch draw on both their academic study and their personal experience to explore the accounts of seven witnesses in the Book of Mormon who, from unique circumstances and perspectives, testify of the good news of Jesus Christ through a narrative of his mortal life. Showcasing that unique insights come from discussion and collaboration, the authors develop and present their ideas through letters to one another. Through their conversations, the authors demonstrate that, considered collectively, these seven gospels bear remarkable witness that, regardless of his disciples’ personal differences, Christ is willing and able to show himself to all of us.
