Marvelous Wonder
In Revelation 12 we read that in the war in Heaven, the Savior’s followers overcame Satan by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony. I don’t know exactly what that was like, but I can just imagine the most faithful and valiant spirits persuading many of us with their testimony of truth and light. I imagine this final battle between good and evil that’s happening right now will involve some of that. I think more and more of us will need to step up and confidently share the light we’ve been given.
Marvelous Wonder Podcast shares the message that the heavens are open, and revelation didn’t stop with Peter and Paul. Marvelous truths, like the Plan of Salvation and the Book of Mormon have been brought forth by the Lord to prepare us for His Second Coming.
On Marvelous Wonder, we will be taking a weekly dive into everything about the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, from the missionary lessons to the temple, to understand what we really believe, where it came from, and how our doctrine comes together in a theology that answers questions humans have had for ages, and brings each one of us into a personal relationship with God the Father and the Savior Jesus Christ. Episodes will rely on scriptural and prophetic authority to teach restored truths in a way that illuminates the covenant path back to our Heavenly Home, for members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who want to take more advantage of what we’ve been given, and for nonmembers who are curious about what we believe and just what is so Marvelous and Wonderful about it.

The Shroud of Turin and The Book of Mormon
In this video, Preston Purnell examines two controversial artifacts that potentially validate Christian beliefs: the Shroud of Turin and the Book of Mormon. Preston compares how these items are received by the broader Christian community despite both offering evidence for core Christian claims.
The discussion covers:
- Recent scientific verification suggesting the Shroud dates to the time of Christ
- Physical evidence supporting the Shroud's authenticity as Jesus's burial cloth
- How the Book of Mormon, like the Shroud, offers evidence for Christ's resurrection
- Historical findings that corroborate Book of Mormon claims
- Why Christians readily accept the Shroud while rejecting the Book of Mormon
- The more profound implications of accepting the Book of Mormon's authenticity
Preston explains that while the Shroud might confirm historical Christianity, the Book of Mormon suggests something more challenging—that God still calls prophets today and that our understanding of heaven, hell, and salvation might need significant revision. As Preston observes, "It might all be true," inviting viewers to consider what accepting either artifact would mean for their faith.
