About this item

Rise from the dust and become the hero you were born to be--with a little help from Batman. The Hero Doctrine is a rousing cry to the latter-day saints, an echo of Lehi's ancient call to awaken from our spiritual slumber and enter the spiritual battlefield of today's world. Using in-depth parables from pop culture--including the subject of eternal progression in Star Wars and an allegory of the Atonement in The Dark Knight--Silvester reminds us in entertaining ways of our potentials, duties, and privileges as children of a god.
