His one sermon in the series, and what it covers.

One sermon by L. W. Hardy appears in the Journal of Discourses, in volume 19 (1878).

In his own words

The table below says what his one sermon covers. This is what it sounded like.

We have commenced to build up the Kingdom of God, and like the grain of mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds, it will grow and extend until the whole earth shall be full of the knowledge of God, and the kingdoms of this world become the kingdoms of our God and his Christ and he will reign forever.

L. W. Hardy, Remarks, Journal of Discourses, Volume 19

What the sermon covers

Indexed subjects, in order of how often they appear: Temple Ordinances, Baptism for the Dead, Doctrine and Covenants, Priesthood, Offerings for the Poor, Temples, Poor Relief, Erastus Snow, Far West Missouri, Salvation for the Dead, Tithing Law, Land of Zion.

Where it sits

Volume 19 (1878) holds 53 sermons by 12 speakers, of which 1 is his. John Taylor carries that volume with 11.

The Journal is overwhelmingly the work of a dozen men. The speakers who appear once or twice are the reason the series is worth indexing in full: they are printed at the same length and with the same care as the presidencies, and almost nowhere else.

Every sermon, in order

The complete list as the Journal prints it. Titles are the printed titles, which routinely name four or five unrelated subjects in one line — each one links to the discourse itself at journalofdiscourses.com.
