Great history beautifully told

We take for granted this restored church, but their waa much pain, suffering, and sacrifice to allow it to prosper.

Truth of our History

Hearing church history from the journals of early Saints was fascinating to me. Even though I’ve been a member of the church my whole life, I have never understood polygamy. It was eye opening (in a good way) to hear the experiences of the women who entered into those relationships. Kirby Heybourne was an excellent narrator.

Great primer for a new convert

I ❤️❤️❤️ this story. I'm a recent convert to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (6/29/19). Listening to No Unhallowed Hand (after Vol. 1The Standard of Truth) was so helpful for connecting all the stories of the early church together in one well written, beautifully narrated book. Join the fold of God's church here on the earth and then listen to both these volumes.

Fascinating and sad

The themes are missionary work and polygamy. The missionary success seems remarkable considering all the problems faced by members. Polygamy would have served a purpose and certainly has biblical precedent but became a huge problem as the US government heaped increasing sanctions against its participants. Ironically, a man can now marry another man. The book well portrays the array of personal pains resulting from the abrupt end to polygamy.

Narrator ruins the rest

The history is very well written and very interesting. The quotes selected are great—-except for the horrible fakey “accents” the narrator used to read them. The narration made me grit my teeth through the entire book. Just finished it, and heaved a great sigh of relief. I hope to goodness that a different narrator is used for the next volume.
