In a tribute to Latter-day Saint Scholar, Richard Lloyd Anderson who passed away 12 August 2018, Nick Galieti and Jared Riddick discuss his life, his work, more specifically his article, "Attempts to Redefine the Experience of the Eight Witnesses" as published in the Journal of Book of Mormon Studies. Following the discussion, Nick Galieti does a reading of that article. Used by Permission from the Neal A. Maxwell Institute and Brigham Young University.
Richard Lloyd Anderson shares how, in many ways, the apostle Paul and Joseph Smith are similar. Both of these prophetic figures received revelation, demonstrated devoted service, and were persecuted and ultimately martyred for their testimonies. Support the show.
On this episode, we dive into our historical timeline by examining the power of the press in early Mormonism. From the BoM to the Times and Seasons, the Mormons were publication fiends in absolute control of the information going out of Nauvoo through public literature. Ebenezer Robinson, Robert B. Thompson, and Don Carlos Smith work as editors for the Times and Seasons which goes off without a hitch until August 1841. Polygamy starts to be taught to various members of trusted Mormon elite without Common Consent of the average chapel-attending Mormon. After that, we have on Lydia Finch to discuss cults, how to identify them, and what mechanisms they use to exert control over their members. Stick around after the interview to hear about the upcoming Protect LDS Children march at the end of this month. Links: D&C 101 1835 ed.
