Plural marriage in the Nauvoo era of LDS Church history has long been a fascinating subject. To understand it fully requires one to look at it from the perspective of the man who introduced it, but just as crucial is a dive into the lives of the women he married, all who have their stories to tell. In his 1997 award-winning study, In Sacred Loneliness: The Plural Wives of Joseph Smith, Todd Compton focused on the thirty-three women who he could demonstrate that Smith married, providing life stories of many who were well-known and others who have been largely forgotten. In his new work, In Sacred Loneliness: The Documents, Compton returns to his subject and provides the raw materials that helped him create his original study, writings composed by the women themselves. This volume includes many autobiographical writings, diaries, and letters, with Compton providing annotations and introductory material that illuminates these crucial primary sources. This allows readers to take their understanding of this unique group of women to a new level and to drive home that fact that their lives go far beyond the Nauvoo experiment that forever links them to Mormonism’s founding prophet.

Renowned ELCA ethicist James Childs contextualizes the origins of this foundational social statement and helps contemporary Lutherans think creatively about how we all are called to be the church, in and for the world around us. Grounded in scripture and Lutheran theology, Childs explores the history of Lutheran public witness in the United States and then deftly connects it with our present. Lutherans are called to seek justice for people living in poverty, for creation, and as peacemakers. What does this look like in practice? How do we engage in the dialogue that is love seeking justice? Who is doing this work? How might we be called, as individuals and institutions, to speak powerfully the truth of Christ for others? Where might the Holy Spirit be leading this this church - and its members - to grow? With thoughtful discussions at the end of each chapter and a list of suggestions for further reading, ReEngaging ELCA Social Teaching on The Church in Society is an accessible resource for engaging congregations, study groups, and classrooms.
