Description

He is not here: for He is risen . . . At the heart of Christianity is the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, a miraculous event that shapes and influences every aspect of our existence. In commemorating the Savior’s matchless sacrifice during the Easter season, there may be a sense of familiarity in our understanding of His life and death―but do we fully comprehend His Atonement and Resurrection and their function within the Father’s plan? In The Essence of Easter, readers are encouraged to embark on a personal journey to truly understand and personalize the infinite sacrifice of Jesus Christ in an effort to capture the true spirit of Easter.





Craig Allen Cardon was sustained as a General Authority Seventy of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 2006. He served as a member of the Africa West Area presidency, an assistant executive director in the Priesthood and Family Department, the editor of Church magazines, and as a member of the Pacific Area presidency. He became an Emeritus General Authority in 2018. He chaired committees in the Priesthood and Family Department that, under the direction of the Twelve Apostles, developed the new "Come, Follow Me" church curriculum and the new children and youth initiatives. These experiences informed much of what he shares in Growing Up unto the Lord.

Prior to his call in 2006 he was an entrepreneur with multiple business interests. Craig Allen Cardon was born in 1948. He married Deborah L. Dana in 1970. They are the parents of eight children.
