In the introduction of the Book of Mormon, we read the following statement from Joseph Smith: "I told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on the earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book." Since then, many leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have declared that the truthfulness of the Gospel and the restored church rise or fall on the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon and its origins. Understanding this, many critics of the church are intent on disproving its authenticity.

In this episode, Tad Callister - retired attorney, prolific author, and former General Sunday School President of the church - makes a case for the Book of Mormon by sharing historical, doctrinal, and spiritual evidences of this inspired book and how a careful study and application of its teachings will provide a sure foundation for our testimonies of Christ in these last days.
