About Restoration Studies
The founding volume of Restoration Studies was published in 1980 to
honor the sesquicentennial of the Latter Day Saint movement, which was formally
organized as the Church of Christ on April 6, 1830. The journal is now published
as an annual by the John Whitmer Historical
Association and the Community
of Christ Seminary Press. The current edition is available on Amazon.com.
The first Restoration Studies Symposium was held in April of 2007.
Co-sponsored by JWHA, the Community of Christ Seminary, and the Sunstone Education Foundation as
Sunstone Midwest, the symposium reaches across the Latter Day Saint movement to
explore theology, cultural and religious studies.
