Scope and Contents

From the Series: This section contains numerous articles and speeches written by Eyring on a variety of religious topics. Many of the articles were published in the L.D.S. church-owned magazines, The Instructor and The Improvement Era. Materials in box 21 pertain to The Instructor's "I Believe . . ." series with which Eyring was involved for several years. Additional significant items in this section include materials pertaining to Eyring's book, The Faith of A Scientist, and correspondence regarding Man, His Origin and Destiny by Joseph Fielding Smith. Although Eyring spent twenty years as a member of the Deseret Sunday School General Board, there is little material in this collection that documents his work in that organization. What is available can be located in box 22, folders 1 and 2.
