This piece was inspired in Sariah, mother of Nephi whose name is the only woman's to appear in Nephi's writings.

Nephi’s Courage” – Bill N. Hansen Jr. & Lisa T. Hansen

The Lord gave Nephi’s family a difficult assignment:  return to Jerusalem and acquire the plates of brass, the history of his people, which was kept by a wealthy relative.  Nephi’s brother complained, but Nephi expressed his faith:  “I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandment unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them.”

Father, I Will Go

Clark Kelley Price


I am depicting the incident from 1 Nephi, chapter 3, where Nephi returns from speaking with God to the tent of his Father and learns that he is to go to Jerusalem to get the brass plates.  His father tells Nephi that he has already spoken to Laman and Lemuel and that they have said the assignment is too hard.  Nephi brings joy to Lehi when he tells him that he will do it because he believes the Lord will help them do it.  The message of my painting is that Nephi set a great example and heritage of faith for the whole Church forever by what he said and did.

Treasures in Exchange for the Plates of Brass

Minerva Teichert


Lehi’s sons’s second attempt to get the Plates of Brass, as commanded by the Lord:  “And it came to pass that we went in unto Laban, and desired him that he would give unto us the records which were engraven upon the plates of brass, for which we would give unto him our gold, and our silver, and all our precious things.”
