Book description:

A concise, informative introduction to the origins, teaching, and practices of Mormonism today contrasted with historic Christianity.

Sociologist Rodney Stark estimates that by 2080, Mormonism will have 267 million adherents. As a leading rival to biblical Christianity in both America and Latin America, it is a religion to be reckoned with. However, Mormons are not so much a group to be feared by Christians, says author Andrew Jackson, as a mission field to be cultivated.

As a professor and a pastor in a city that boasts a large LDS community, Jackson has had not only many discussions with Mormon neighbors but with current and ex-members from every level of the church hierarchy. These conversations have led him to study this religion and write this book.

His systematic, concise, and well-documented work offers an easy-reading explanation of Mormon teaching and practice today. This book is the first place readers will want to turn for a primer on Mormonism’s origins and specific doctrines, and what Mormons believe and why.

Book Bargains Review

 

This is a very informative book about what the Latter Day Saints teach and practice.  Jackson has certainly done his homework, which is evident as he spells out clearly what Mormon's believe and why they believe the way they do.  While it is full of information, the author has a very easy-to-read style. 

Mormonism Explained is one of the most thorough books on Mormonism I ever read.  It covers their history, beliefs, theology, and their diversity in beliefs. This book clears up some confusion I had about what Mormons really believe.

I want to note that Jackson does not put down Mormonism as he explains their beliefs, not as a critic but as a teacher.  It is a good book for those who want more insight into this religion.
