  • This volume follows the same user-friendly format of the earlier God So Loved the World, organizing the chapters according to the traditional days of Holy Week with expanded discussion and additional materials. After discussing the scriptural accounts for each day of Holy Week, the chapters then summarize how these scriptural events have been celebrated through the centuries in different Christian traditions before sharing suggestions on how Latter-day Saints can both study the texts and commemorate the events in their own families.

  • Becoming the Beloved Disciple: Coming unto Christ through the Gospel of John (Springville: Cedar Fort, 2018). A study of the fourth gospel that also uses the different characters in John as types of the different kinds of people in the Church today. Each walk of faith is different and each way is legitimate, but the crucial elements of discipleship that we should all share include a personal, loving relationship with Jesus Christ, a testimony of his atoning sacrifice, and joyful hope through his resurrection.
