What Does 'Redeeming The Dead' Actually Mean & Where Did It Come From? - Amy Harris | 124

Latter-day Saints are familiar with the mission of redeeming the dead, but are we looking at the whole picture?

Amy Harris is an associate professor of history and family/history genealogy and the author of 'Redeeming The Dead,' which is part of the Doctrine & Covenants Themes series.

I wanted to speak to Amy to get a greater understanding of her expansive and empowering view of redeeming the dead, and practical tips on how to engage in the work of it.

Some highlights from this episode include the history of redeeming the dead, why it isn't just Temple work, and how anyone can start getting involved today.
