Summary | "The Vitality of 'Mormonism': An Address by James E. Talmage" is a theological address published in the early 20th century, specifically in 1917. The author, James E. Talmage, was a prominent leader in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and this work explores the enduring nature and growth of "Mormonism." The address was originally delivered to the Denver Philosophical Society, discussing the resilience and expansion of the Church since its inception in 1830, providing insights into its religious principles and institutional framework. In this address, Talmage argues that the vitality of "Mormonism" stems from its clear doctrines, organized structure, and divine authority. He emphasizes the growth of the Church, illustrating the increase in membership and the establishment of a robust missionary system that propagates its teachings across the globe. The address further addresses the Church's capacity to adapt while maintaining a strong foundation in revealed truths, emphasizing the positive social ramifications of its doctrines, such as healthy lifestyles and community building. Talmage's treatment of the subject is both analytical and devotional, ultimately presenting "Mormonism" as a significant and progressive influence in modern spirituality.
