Mormon Studies

Mormon Studies is an academic field that explores the history, beliefs, practices, and cultural impact of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). It examines the religion’s origins, sacred texts like the Book of Mormon, and its influence on individuals and society. Scholars use disciplines like history, theology, anthropology, and sociology to understand Mormonism’s development, diversity within its community, and its role in broader religious and cultural contexts. The goal is to offer informed, respectful insights into the faith and its followers without bias or oversimplification.
