The Mormons: Who They Are, What They Believe DVD

Mormons DVD

The Mormons DVD talks about who they are, and what they believe. This movie includes six sessions for around 100 minutes total.

From its clean-cut bicycling missionaries and imposing Salt Lake Temple to its cryptic rituals and closed-door secrecy, the Mormon Church is both intriguing and mystifying. Despite whatever popular appeal this religious movement has, it is no stranger to controversy. Individual revelations from God, the murder of its founder, regional expulsion, polygamy, and peculiar doctrine have put Mormons on the edge.

This Bible study examines the group's origins: Joseph Smith, the Book of Mormon, Brigham Young, and others, the discrepancy between Mormon beliefs and orthodox Christian teaching, the meaning of its rituals: baptism of the dead, endowments for the living and dead, temple garments, celestial marriage, and the prominence of the temple. Former Mormons share how their decision to exit the group was an incomprehensible and disappointing experience. Once out, many found themselves cut off and ostracized by their families, ready to abandon religious faith altogether. Insider narratives and expert commentary add depth and authenticity to this revealing study.
