The Fading Flower and Swallow the Sun

By: Mahonri Stewart

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Two plays by award-winning playwright Mahonri Stewart. "The Fading Flower": Emma Smith had brought up her children to honor the memory of their father, Joseph Smith, the martyred Mormon Prophet. Yet when her son, David Hyrum Smith, starts investigating the mysteries behind his father's involvement in polygamy and goes west to mingle with the "Brighamite" faction of Mormonism, Emma must confront a chapter in her life that she would have preferred to have left closed. "Swallow the Sun": Before he became one of the world's greatest defenders of Christianity and the beloved author of "The Chronicles of Narnia," C.S. "Jack" Lewis was a staunch atheist. This is the stirring and powerful story of his early life as he journeyed from entrenched skeptic to one of modern Christianity's most eloquent and courageous advocates.
