The Book of Mormon as seen through the eyes of an engineer (my professional training). This does not mean I focus on engineering aspects of book - although these occasionally surface - but rather, it means that things must make sense, people must behave rationally, and things will usually be what they appear to be.
Although the primary audience will be members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (formerly called Mormons), members of other Christian faiths may be interested in exploring as well.
An audience will meet characters such as Nephi, Lehi, Laman, Lemuel, Alma, Helaman, Mormon, Moroni, King Benjamin, Mosiah, and countless others.
