Through my personal love for the scriptures, namely the Book of Mormon,
I have chosen to illustrate the historical and sacred events surrounding
the journey undertaken by Lehi's and Ishmael's families as they traveled
from Jerusalem to the Promised Land. The Out of Jerusalem series
is a four-volume set—Volume One covers the departure of the
family from Jerusalem, Volume Two takes them to the land of
Bountiful, Volume Three follows the family to the promised
land, and Volume Four will encompass the family's colonization
in the promised land and their eventual separation. It is my hope that the readers will enjoy the easy narrative and fast-paced nature of this fictional series, and in the end, the next time they open the Book of Mormon, vivid colors, sights, and sounds will reach into their hearts, drawing them into the fascinating events.
Out of Jerusalem: Of Goodly Parents, Volume One Experience anew the timeless story of Lehi and his family as you explore the complexities of human emotion. Gain new appreciation as you journey with this deeply divided clan in their courageous flight from Jerusalem toward a promised land—a land that to some seems forever out of reach. Meticulously researched and told with vivid detail and passionate energy, this sacred story brings to life the people, places, and events of the Book of Mormon. *Also available in audio version
Out of Jerusalem: A Light in the Wilderness, Volume Two From the moment Lehi and his family left Jerusalem to the time they reached the land of Bountiful, they spent eight years sojourning in the desert. What happened to them during this time and why did it take the family so long to traverse a route that typically took four months? Relive Lehi's journey through the wilderness as the saga continues with the upcoming release of volume two, "A Light in the Wilderness". *Also available in audio version
Out of Jerusalem: Towards the Promised Land, Volume Three It is time for Lehi's family to leave the place Bountiful for the promised land. But Nephi's older brothers, Laman and Lemuel, believe they are already living in a promised land. Why should they leave their newfound abundance? Challenged with following instructions from the Lord while keeping peace within the family, Nephi forges ahead to build a ship that can cross oceans—but storms at sea are nothing compared to the turbulent relationship between Nephi and his older brothers. With characters you will both love and loathe, H.B. Moore streams one suspenseful scene after another as she weaves well-researched facts with a wealth of imaginative detail. More than any other work of fiction, Out of Jerusalem brings the journey of the prophet Lehi's family to life in a way that will forever move your soul. *Also available in audio version
Out of Jerusalem: Land of Inheritance, Volume Four Land of Inheritance, final volume of the captivating Out of Jerusalem epic chronicles the lives and loves of the family of Lehi as they struggle to establish themselves in the Promised Land. It is a saga filled with spiritual yearnings, escalating rebellions, tender family relationships—and sibling rivalries that reach frenzied heights of hatred and revenge. Gifted LDS author Heather Moore once again offers her readers a glimpse into the hearts, minds, and spirits of these Book of Mormon pioneers whose choices will forge a legacy destined to influence all of God’s children. *Also available in audio version Books are available for purchase at most major bookstores, all LDS bookstores, and their correlating websites. |
