Defending the restored church of Christ - I created this blog back in 2013 to provide an alternative to what I saw at the time as a lot of bad "Mormon blogs" that were floating around the web. I originally named it "Mormon Village" but after Pres. Nelson asked members to not use the name Mormon as much I changed it to LatterDayTemplar. Also, it was my goal to collect and share a plethora of positive and useful information about what I steadfastly believe to be Christ's restored church. It has been incredibly enjoyable and I hope you find the information worthwhile.

Read Primary Sources on the Origin of the Book of Mormon in One Volume


(by Stephen Smoot bookormormoncentral.org 2-20-19)

Oxford University Press has recently published A Documentary History of the Book of Mormon, the first “single-volume collection of documents to focus exclusively on the origin of the Book of Mormon.” Compiled and edited by Larry E. Morris, a writer and historian living in Salt Lake City, Utah and formerly an editor with the Joseph Smith Papers Project, this new volume features a “compilation of both first- and secondhand accounts relevant to the inception of the Book of Mormon,” including accounts about the visitation of Moroni, Martin Harris’s visit to scholars in New York, the translation and publication of the Book of Mormon, and the Three and Eight Witnesses.
