From log cabins in Kirtland to academies across the American West and schools spanning Mexico, the Pacific, and South America, Educating for Eternity tells the sweeping story of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and its nearly two-century commitment to K–12 education. Rooted in a theology that declares “the glory of God is intelligence,” this volume explores how faith, persecution, migration, financial constraint, and global expansion shaped a distinctive system of education. Drawing on extensive archival research, the authors illuminate the vision, sacrifice, debate, and adaptation that defined Latter-day Saint schools from 1830 to 2020—revealing how a people’s eternal vision of the soul shaped the daily work of educating the rising generation.
At its heart, discipleship is an invitation to become like Jesus Christ. In the New Testament, the Savior’s call is clear: “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me” (Matthew 16:24). To follow him is to emulate his life—to act with love, humility, and compassion and to replace self-interest with devoted service. Discipleship is more than belief. It is a way of life.
New Testament Insights invites readers to explore what it truly means to follow Christ. Through thoughtful, perceptive essays, this volume models how careful study of the New Testament can yield powerful personal application. Familiar passages take on new depth as contributors illuminate the doctrines, patterns, and lived realities of Christian discipleship.
These essays are designed to strengthen faith, deepen love for the Savior, and inspire a more committed walk along the covenant path, helping readers experience the joy that comes from becoming more like Jesus Christ.
