Alex Baugh on Hawn's Mill Massacre
October 30th, 2019 marks 181 years since 17 Mormon men and boys were killed by a mob in Hawn's Mill, Missouri. For the rest of this month we will look at the events that led to this Halloween massacre with BYU professor Alex Baugh. Dr. Baugh is one of the best experts on the Mormon War of 1838 in Missouri and we will discuss not only the events that led to the Hawn's Mill Massacre, but other hostilities that occurred as early as 1832. Check out our conversation....
The Missouri Mormon Experience
The Mormon presence in nineteenth-century Missouri was uneasy at best and at times flared into violence fed by misunderstanding and suspicion. By the end of 1838, blood was shed, and Governor Lilburn Boggs ordered that Mormons were to be “exterminated or driven from the state.” The Missouri persecutions greatly shaped Mormon faith and culture; this book reexamines Mormon-Missourian history within the sociocultural context of its time. The contributors to this volume unearth the challenges and assumptions on both sides of the conflict, as well as the cultural baggage that dictated how their actions and responses played on each other. Shortly after Joseph Smith proclaimed Jackson County th...
The Voice of the Lord
The essays in this volume explore the historical context and doctrinal teachings from a selection of the canonized revelations and official declarations. Contributors explore the testimony of the witnesses to the Book of Mormon, the revelations given to Emma Smith, Hiram Page, and Thomas B.

The Bible, Mormon Scripture, and the Rhetoric of Allusivity
One of the most pertinent questions facing students of Mormon Studies is gaining further understanding of the function the Bible played in the composition of Joseph Smith’s primary compositions, the Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants. With a few notable exceptions, such as Philip Barlow’s Mormons and the Bible and Grant Hardy’s Understanding the Book of Mormon, full-length monographs devoted to this topic have been lacking. This manuscript attempts to remedy this through a close analysis of how Mormon scripture, specifically the Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants, integrates the writings of New Testament into its own text. This manuscript takes up the argument tha...
A Peculiar People
Though the U.S. Constitution guarantees the free exercise of religion, it does not specify what counts as a religion. From its founding in the 1830s, Mormonism, a homegrown American faith, drew thousands of converts but far more critics. In A Peculiar
