Good stuff from Book of Mormon Central

One of the principal missions of Book of Mormon Central is to make some of the material generated about the Book of Mormon over the past sixty or seventy years or so much more accessible, in nicely-packaged form.

Sidney Sperry, Hugh Nibley, John Sorenson, the old Foundation for Ancient Research and Mormon Studies (FARMS) — these people (and many others) produced a great deal of very good stuff for a very long time.  But a lot of it is out of print now, or difficult to find.

Even many believing Latter-day Saints are unaware of it.  And that permits critics to write and speak and propagandize as if it didn’t exist, and makes it easier for testimonies to be damaged in people who simply don’t know of the wealth of supportive arguments and evidence that are out there.

The Interpreter Foundation was established in late July 2012 to continue the project of generating faithful research and writing on the Book of Mormon and related subjects.

Book of Mormon Central exists now to open up the treasure house of the scholarship that has already been produced.  In a very real way, it could not have happened — just as the Interpreter Foundation could not — before the rise of the Internet.  Now, though, we’re not nearly so limited by time and space in getting the word out.

It’s a new day.  You may have seen the old question “Why should the devil have all the good tunes?” In a similar vein, there’s no reason whatever that we should concede the Internet to the Adversary.

Anyway, have a look at some of these materials, produced by Book of Mormon Central during the month of February alone:
