In contrast to the modern world, which seems sadly lacking in heroes, the Book of Mormon contains stellar examples of all that the word hero implies. In this book, twenty General Authorities describe Book of Mormon heroes worthy of emulation. These figures come alive as their heroic qualities and deeds are discussed. We read of fearless Abinadi, who died a martyr for his faith; of Captain Moroni, who taught powerfully of values worth fighting and even dying for. Characteristics of successful missionaries are identified in essays about Alma the Younger and Ammon. President Hinckley pays eloquent tribute to Moroni, whose role was essential to the restoration of the gospel. Heroes from the Book of Mormon presents powerful lessons that will encourage readers to nurture the heroic within themselves.
