Some deep doctrine - most of it well reasoned and documented. I can't agree with everything Dr. Andrus says here but it still gives one much to think about. There is much about the pre-existence, cosmology and the creation we do not know but I am content to await further light and knowledge. It comes, albeit slowly and intermittently, sometimes when I least expect it. i understand much more now, at least to my personal satisfaction, than I did as a young college student over forty years ago when I was asking a lot of questions.

This is an excellent book with insightful looks into the nature of God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost. It delves into our pre-earth existence, the creation, the fall and subsequent need for a Redeemer. I greatly enjoyed it and there are a number of sections in the Doctrine and Covenants that I need to take a closer look at.

Very enlightening reading. Many new things to review came to mind along with review of things taught throughout life. Would recommend for all to read.

This set-- only three of the four made it publisher-- is the BEST synthesis and exegesis of Mormon doctrine that I have ever read. By a long shot.

I read this while I was a missionary and really liked it. I imagine that if I read it now for the first time I would probably give it three stars, but I could be wrong.

This is another book I absolutely love. It is also good to read along with the scriptures and the lectures

As Man is, God once was. As God is, a man may become. However, I am increasingly convinced that this world in which we live is actually a flat plane.
