And What of Corianton?
A name scarcely remembered—even among faithful members of the restored Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Yet, over 2,000 years ago on the American continent, Corianton’s story unfolded in the pages of the Book of Mormon: a story of transgression, divine chastisement, sincere repentance, and ultimate redemption.

This book explores the life and transformation of Corianton, the wayward son of Alma the Younger, whose personal failings while serving as a missionary provide one of the most powerful illustrations of the Atonement of Jesus Christ found in scripture. Far from a cautionary footnote, Corianton emerges as a profound testament to the redeeming grace of God and the enduring promise that no soul is beyond His reach.

Drawing from years of experience as a bishop to young single adults at the University of Utah, the author shares real-world insights into the struggles faced by today’s rising generation—particularly in a time when sexual immorality and pornography are among the most common spiritual wounds. With compassion and clarity, And What of Corianton? offers a message of healing and hope to those burdened by guilt and shame, illuminating the path from despair to peace.

This is more than a study of one man’s redemption. It is an invitation to rediscover the power of the Book of Mormon, and the transformative gift of Christ’s Atonement—for Corianton, for today’s youth, and for all of us.
