Listen to an interview with Steven C. Harper from Everyday Lives Everyday Values, aired January 25 2009

Have you struggled with understanding the Doctrine and Covenants? As a collection of separate and diverse texts, it can be rather daunting to study. After all, it is the only one of the standard works that does not tell its own story.

Making Sense of the Doctrine & Covenants addresses this challenge in a creative new way. Rather than giving a verse-by-verse commentary, author Steven C. Harper takes readers on a guided tour through the revelations. Drawing on the earliest manuscripts of those revelations, he provides historically grounded insights into why each revelation was given, what it means, and why it matters.

Chapters on every section of the Doctrine and Covenants begin by delving into the historical record to recreate the question or problem each revelation was given to resolve and end by showing readers the outcomes for individuals and the Church.

Families and scholars alike will relish the depth and accessibility of Making Sense of the Doctrine & Covenants. It is an invaluable addition to any gospel library and a fascinating resource for anyone who wishes to become more closely acquainted with this marvelous book of scripture.

Best D&C reference I've ever read

Admin, UTAH - June 08, 2009


There is more here about the context of the revelations than in all of the other D&C commentaries published in the past 25 years. I am not exaggerating. Teachers should do their students and themselves a favor and use this book as a part of their lesson prep. It will make the class a lot more meaningful. Trust me.
