Moroni 10: That Which is Good...is True

December 17, 2024 11:41 AM
Moroni, who brought the Book of Mormon to a close before “sealing up” the large record abridged by his father, was a veteran of calamity. And it can be dangerous to tame calamity too readily. In our zeal for happy endings, we risk trivializing traged...
