Moronihah Inks

Description

This is my concept of Captain Moronihah, the great Captain Moroni's son. He took the reins as chief captain of the Nephite armies after his father retired. His story can be found in the Book of Mormon, beginning in Alma 62 ([link]) and going into the first part of the book of Helaman.

Moronihah lived a fascinating life. He experienced wars, tragedy, and undeniable miracles during his time as chief captain. Though victorious in some of his earlier battles, he ended up losing half of his country to invaders, including the capital city. This must have been emotionally very tough on him, considering his father, who was a legend in his own time, had saved the country many times from similar threats. But Moronihah didn't lose courage. He encouraged his men to live the commandments of God, and in His strength they were able to maintain a part of the land. After that, they could only pray for a miracle.

A miracle is exactly what they got. That story can be found in my favorite chapter of the whole Book of Mormon, Helaman 5 ([link]).
