The Fourfold Pillars of the LDS Church:
Alden C. Wynn explains the fourfold mission of the Church of Latter-day Saints through an exploration of latter-day Presidents/Prophets fulfilling sacred responsibilities of their beliefs. To provide the groundwork, President Spencer W. Kimball listed three purposes: proclaiming the gospel, perfecting the saints, and redeeming the dead.

The Essence of True Religion:
In his most recent work, author Alden C. Wynn explores the triple decree that emerged in 1981 as the fourfold mission of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In his 2010 addendum, President Thomas S. Monson highlighted helping those in need. Wynn illuminates the profound relationship between these principles, showing how they are central to the Church's goal of fulfilling its mission to assist individulals in gaining blessings of immortality and everlasting life.
Perfecting the Saints:
Wynn views the second purpose, perfecting the saints, as a path to enlightenment and a deeper union with God. As the book explores the mission's transformational potential, it presents churchgoers as agents of their own spiritual development and contributors to the Church's collective spiritual maturity.
Redeeming the Dead:
As Wynn describes the sacred temple ordinaces performed to honor and assist ancestors who have passed on, the third mission—redeeming the dead—takes center stage. A crucial aspect of the Church's mission, these redemptive acts bestow everlasting graces and give readers a profound comprehension of the bond between the living and the dead.
Caring for the Poor and Needy:
Caring for the destitute and disadvantaged is the fourth purpose, and Wynn inquires further into its humanitarian element. The book uses historical examples, such as the Welfare Program established by President Heber J. Grant, to show how the Church has always been committed to helping people and how this goal is fundamental to genuine religion.
The Essence of Compassion:
Wynn captures the essence of compassion through moving stories and insightful commentary. He stresses that caring for the poor and needy is more than a mission; it mirrors Christ's teachings. This book is a rallying cry for readers to practice the uppermost form of religion by helping those in need in their local communities.
