As the Book of Mormon nears its conclusion we have included a few more war chapters. It's fair to ask why Moroni, who saw so much war and destruction himself, would choose to bring in these chapters describing bloodshed and evil. This week while reading Ether 12–15 we will try to understand the context Moroni was coming from, the many chapters of war in the Book of Mormon, and the lessons we can learn from modern day conflict.
