From the Book of Mormon to the Circle Seven Koran: Scriptures of American new religions

This article examines the growing scholarship on scripture in American new religious movements, specifically on exemplary studies on African-American Islam, Mormonism, and Satanism. After reviewing the state of the scholarship, I seek to encourage additional work in this inchoate subfield at the intersection of new religious movements, American religious history, and scriptural studies by offering potential trajectories and publication venues.
