Abstract:

Polynesia has a particular place in the history of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). The region that heralded the Church’s first overseas missions includes seven of the world’s top ten nations in terms of the proportion of Mormons in the population, and it is home to six Mormon temples. The Polynesian Latter-day Saint population is increasing in both percentage and absolute numbers, and peoples in the Pacific “islands of the sea” continue to play a central role in the Mormon missionary imaginary. This article explores Polynesians in the LDS Church and critically eva

Abstract:

This paper examines Joseph Smith's construction of a racialized theology, which drew upon conceptions of Abrahamic lineage and the possibility of “racial redemption” for peoples of African descent through conversion to Mormonism. This ran against the grain of his Protestant and Catholic contemporaries’ religious understandings of race. He expanded upon earlier iterations of his ideas with the introduction of new rituals and liturgy related to LDS temples. Smith's wife may have invited a person of African descent to participate in this new liturgy before his murder in June 1844. The views he ex

Abstract:

AbstractWith regard to sacred books, Joseph Smith, the founder of Mormonism (1805 – 1844), is best known for his publication of the Book of Mormon, as a history comparable to the Bible, and for other texts he put forth as divine revelations. These volumes established the unique beliefs of Mormonism and set it apart from other religions. What is less well known and often overlooked by historians is the fact that virtually every aspect of Joseph Smith's career involved the Bible, which was central to his theology and to the religious system that he established – but always in ways unique to him.

Abstract:

The purpose of this article is to discuss two perspectives on Latter-day Saints’ (Mormons') temple open houses. First, that of the Latter-day Saints themselves, who are placed in a delicate situation as they present the temple to the public while simultaneously desiring to preserve its esoteric nature. What do they want to accomplish and how do they go about doing it? Second, the perspective of the public, whose reactions exemplify layman views of what it can be like to peek into a sacred and esoteric world foreign to oneself. What kinds of forms can their thoughts take at Mormon temple open h

Abstract:

Steven T. Katz and James Spickard have argued that even though mystical and ecstatic experiences are often self-defined as unmediated experiences of the divine, fundamentally these experiences are always mediated to some degree through the mystic's own cultural milieu and religious language. The filtration of Mormon naturalist Terry Tempest Williams' mystical encounters with nature through a Mormon cultural lens, which is tied to a historic and mythic topophilia, lends Williams' writing a creative organicism that deftly combines diverse and contradictory elements. On one hand, Williams points

This thesis provides such a history from the conception of the temple until its dedication. The history of this particular temple is important for several reasons. At its dedication, the temple in Laie became the fifth operating temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It was the

A trend of reliance on public works programs during economic depressions, not only put people to work, but also provided an influx of outside aid to develop an infrastructure for future economic stability and growth. Each of these public works was carefully planned by leaders who not only saw the immediate impact these projects would have, but also future benefits they would confer. These communities also became dependent on acquiring outside

Abstract:

This chapter looks at Mormons' experiences in the Latter-day Saints (LDS) temple. Whereas regular Sunday services are open to the public at thousands of LDS chapel meetinghouses around the world, temples are rare—there are just over 150 around the globe—and closed to everyone but the most committed Latter-day Saints. The Next Mormons Survey (NMS) data shows that most Mormons who have been to the temple do have a good first experience. Six in ten current Mormon respondents reported that they had been to the temple for the initiatory followed by the endowment ceremony, which are the two essential rites of initiation for the LDS temple. However, it is possible there is a disconnect between what millennials say about loving their first time in the temple and what some of them actually felt in real time. Overall, the temple emerges as a complex site of contention for many former Mormons.

Abstract:

After her death, Jane James faded into obscurity until the late twentieth century, when she gained new fame. Mormons used her story to reimagine their church as racially diverse and Joseph Smith as racially egalitarian. For historians of American religion and others, James’s story gives the history of Mormonism from below and shows the limits of Mormonism’s democratizing impulse. It illustrates the variety of Mormon religious experience and shows the limits of focusing on temple rituals and priesthood. James’s Mormonism differed from that of other Latter-day Saints and thus illustrates how race and gender shaped ways of being Mormon. James also shaped Mormon history in subtle but crucial ways. Her presence in present-day LDS discourses suggests that she has finally achieved what she worked so hard for during her life: Mormons of all races now hold her in “honourable remembrance,” as her second patriarchal blessing promised her.

Abstract:

From the 1950s to the 1970s, Mormons preached against interracial marriages and in favor of patriarchal marriages. This chapter explores the interrelationships between race, gender, and sexuality in Mormon thought in this period. As part of a broader conservative investment in values of home and family, Latter-day Saints embraced these teachings as core doctrines to stabilize racial and gender differences in the face of erosion of difference. These teachings underwent changes after a 1978 revelation ended priesthood and temple restrictions for Black LDS members.

The end of the twentieth century saw an emphasis on more spiritual or metaphorical interpretations of Mormon historic sites, yet that spiritual turn included an affective, experiential element as well. Thus, the late twentieth-century activities made of the Mormon Trail a museum, a playground, and a temple: a “lineal temple,” a sacred space, where members could come to experience their history and theology under the umbrella of authenticity.

Abstract:

This chapter examines Smith’s creation of the Mormon law (D&C 20 and 42) and formation of a hierarchical priesthood structure to govern the kingdom of God, which he based on a charismatic reception of the law through revelation, a restoration of his church through angelic visits and theophany, and his expectation that church members have their own revelations and see God for themselves (D&C 88:1). The chapter examines the emergence of several new rituals in the Kirtland period before turning attention to Smith’s 1836 priesthood restoration narrative about Elijah, the Old Testament prophet, who reportedly visited Smith on April 3, 1836. The idea of Elijah returning to usher in the Second Coming was commonly preached by antebellum Protestants who accentuated the millennialism in the fourth chapter of Malachi. The chapter traces Smith’s interest in the Old Testament, which led to his study of Hebrew and his discovery of the Passover tradition of leaving a cup of wine for Elijah in anticipation of his return. The chapter views Elijah’s restoration of priesthood as the pinnacle of the development of the Mormon priesthood that would endow the Mormons with power from on high. The chapter traces Smith’s attempts to reconcile the tension between following the law (even his own revelatory commandments), empowering a hierarchy of priests, and being assured salvation through physical rites. It charts the beginning of new Mormon ritual efforts to recreate its members as prophets/prophetesses, priests/priestesses, and kings/queens, all while maintaining Smith’s central role. The rituals endowed the Mormon membership with authority and connected them to the ancient order of Melchizedek and prepared for Christ’s Second Coming. Participation in solemn assemblies, anointings, and the School of the Prophets assured Mormons of their salvation and role in the kingdom within a hierarchical ecclesiology that upheld Smith’s authority. His new liturgies, particularly those featured in the new “House of the Lord” (later termed “temple”) in Kirtland, offered members kingly and prophetic authority without threatening the hierarchical structure of the priesthood.

Abstract:

Jane and Isaac James divorced in 1870. Their reasons for doing so are unknown, but may have been related to Jane’s devotion to the LDS Church and Isaac’s inability to live up to LDS standards of masculinity. Jane reported that Isaac left her for a white fortune teller. After the divorce, Jane moved closer to the center of Salt Lake City; Isaac left Utah. Jane James lost several children and grandchildren to death. The Relief Society, the LDS women’s organization, supported Jane financially and spiritually in this difficult time. She got remarried to Frank Perkins, a black Mormon widower. In 1875, along with several other black Mormons, Jane and Frank Perkins went to the Endowment House—a temporary ritual space used until the LDS temple was completed—to perform baptisms for the dead. The Perkins’s marriage dissolved within two years.
