Bartholomew DOI: 10.7252/Paper. 0000 44 | The LDS Church and Public Engagement: Te history of the public engagement of Te Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (also known as the “Mormons”) is a study of their political, social, and theological shift from polemics, with the associated religious persecution and marginalization, to adjustments and accommodations that have rendered periods of dramatically favorable results. In two generations Mormonism went from being the “ultimate outcast”—its members being literally driven from the borders of the U.S. and persecuted abroad—to becoming the “embodiment of the mainstream” with members fguring prominently in government and business circles nationally and internationally; what one noted journalist has deemed “a breathtaking transformation.”1 I will argue that necessary accommodations made in Church orthodoxy and orthopraxy were not only behind the political, social, and theological “mainstream,” but also consistently outlasted their “acceptability,” as the rapidly changing world’s values outpaced these changes in Mormonism. 1830-1889: MARGINALIZATION Te frst known public engagement regarding Mormonism was when the young Joseph Smith related details regarding what has become known as his 1820 “First Vision” of the Father and the Son. He would later report that “my telling the story had excited a great deal of prejudice against me among professors of religion, and was the cause of great persecution.”2 It may seem strange that Joseph Smith should be so criticized when, in the intense revivalistic atmosphere of the time, many people claimed to have received personal spiritual manifestations, including visions.

  • The Salt Lake Tabernacle: a Witness to the Growth of God’S Kingdom
    Chapter 5 The Salt Lake Tabernacle: A Witness to the Growth of God’s Kingdom Scott C. Esplin “ n great deeds something abides,” reminisced Joshua Lawrence IChamberlain, a famed Civil War colonel. “On great fields some- thing stays. Forms change and pass; bodies disappear, but spirits linger, to consecrate ground for the vision-place of souls. And reverent men and women from afar, and generations that know us not and that we know not of, heart-drawn to see where and by whom great things were suffered and done for them, shall come to this deathless field to ponder and dream; And lo! the shadow of a mighty presence shall wrap them in its bosom, and the power of the vision pass into their souls.”1 For Latter-day Saints, the historic Salt Lake Tabernacle has become one of those sacred sites—a consecrated hall where “something abides” and “spirits linger” and where modern visitors are wrapped in “the shadow of a mighty presence” while visions of the Restoration “pass into their souls.” President Gordon B. Hinckley summarized the influence the Scott C. Esplin is an assistant professor of Church history and doctrine at Brigham Young University. 69 Salt Lake City: The Place Which God Prepared Tabernacle has had on the Church: “The Spirit of the Lord has been in this structure. It is sacred unto us.”2 With the construction of larger and more modern conference halls, the Salt Lake Tabernacle stands today as a silent witness to its pioneer past. Having undergone significant transformations throughout its life, the building serves not only as a monument to pioneer greatness but also as an example of changes in the Church’s history.

  • Reed Smoot's Prayers and the 'Mormon Moment'
    Reed Smoot’s Prayers and the ‘Mormon Moment’ of US-American Politics asjournal.org/65-2018/reed-smoots-prayers-and-the-mormon-moment-of-us-american-politics MaryAnn Snyder-Körber On April 6th, 1917, one Reed Owen Smoot prayed for aid in troubled times. That is hardly original in itself. The scene would thus be unworthy of note if it were not for further specifics. April 6th, 1917, was the day on which the United States declared war on Germany and entered the conflict now known as World War I. The prayer was offered in the US Senate in response to that decision. But just as significant as the setting is the praying subject. Smoot was a Senator from Utah, a Republican, and an Apostle of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (LDS), that is a Mormon. To which the average reader likely responds, “of course.” If Smoot was from Utah, he was of course Mormon, of course Republican, and of course willing to perform religiosity in public. This essay does not aim to cut through that chain of assumptions. Rather, my discussion offers an account of how these links have been forged: a development that would have surprised the majority of nineteenth-century Mormons as much as their non-Mormon contemporaries. What could be conservative about open scriptural canon, communitarian utopianism, and non-monogamous marriage? Ultimately, however, Mormon conservatism is grounded in particulars of that theology. It has further been shaped, gradually but thereby durably, through shifting principles of LDS political engagement. Consideration of this process offers a case study in how an initially radical formation can fashion itself into conservatism.

  • The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square Application Guide
    June 2021 The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square Application Guide SERVICE AS A MUSICAL MISSIONARY Members of The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square are set apart as musical missionaries for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This special privilege of singing in the Choir requires the enthusiasm of a volunteer and the discipline and responsibility of a professional. Although it is an all-volunteer ensemble, the Choir performs on a regular basis in the professional arenas of broadcasting, recording, and concertizing. It is also heard by a worldwide audience that has come to expect a consistently excellent performance. To perform at such a high level with a limited amount of rehearsal time requires intense effort. Consequently, each member of the Choir is asked to commit a significant amount of time to Choir membership. This will be your principal Church calling and will often take you away from your family and home ward. The decision to apply for membership in the Choir should be a thoughtful and prayerful one. It is essential that you have the cooperation and support of family members regarding this decision. Be sure to consider this critical aspect of Choir service before you begin the audition process. MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS 1. To satisfactorily meet the requirements determined by the Choir, a candidate must: 2. Be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in good standing and able to qualify for a temple recommend. 3. Be between 25 and 55 years of age on April 30, 2022, when Choir service would begin.
