Ever heard of the Shakers? No, not the salt kind—the dancing, celibate, super-devoted religious group from the 1800s. This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe dives into Doctrine & Covenants 49–50 to explore their beliefs, the questions early Saints had about them, and what we can learn from it all today.In this episode, you'll learn: ❓ Why asking gospel questions—and taking them to the Lord—is the fail-proof way to find truth.

May 19-25When you read Doctrine and Covenants Sections 49 and 50, it helps to have the rest of the story. Why should you care about Leman Copley or the Shakers and what's this talk about false spirits? We will have some fun and give you the context in this episode.

Our Mothers Knew It with Maria EckersleyA Creative Study of Come, Follow MeD&C [D&C 49-50]““That Which Is of God Is Light”May 19 – May 25, 2025WEEK 21 SUMMARY=================Doctrine and Covenants sections 49 and 50 provide guidance and counsel to Church members regarding some specific challenges of the early church. In Section 49, the Lord addresses misconceptions and false teachings propagated by the Shakers, clarifying doctrines about marriage, meat consumption, and the Second Coming of Christ. Section 50 deals with false spirits and deception within the church, teaching that manifestations and spiritual gifts must edify and be consistent with the truth. These sections emphasize staying true to the established doctrines and being discerning about spiritual experiences.SPARK 1: WILT THOU BE MADE WHOLE================OBJECT LESSON: “Marriage is Ordained of God”: Paper Clip TrickSPARK 2: THE EVIDENCE OF JOY===================================OBJECT LESSON: “Both Are Edified and Rejoice Together”: Water Color TestSPARK 3: A MORE PERFECT UNDERSTANDING=============================OBJECT LESSON: “That Light Groweth Brighter and Brighter”: Solar Panel AnalogyCHAPTERS=========00:00:14 INTRO00:04:07 QUICK GLANCE00:08:14 SPARK 1 INSIGHTS00:17:34 SPARK 1 OBJECT LESSON00:21:38 SPARK 1 QUESTIONS00:23:39 SPARK 2 INSIGHTS00:31:37 SPARK 2 OBJECT LESSON00:34:10 SPARK 2 QUESTIONS00:36:11 SPARK 3 INSIGHTS00:46:13 SPARK 3 OBJECT LESSON00:50:04 SPARK 3 QUESTIONS00:51:29 WRAP UPLINKS=====WEB: https://www.gather.meckmom.comETSY: https://www.etsy.com/shop/meckmomINSTAGRAM: Instagram @meckmomlifePODCAST: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST DISCLAIMER=================================This podcast represents my own thoughts and opinions.

Revelation Dates: May 1831 Revelation Places: Kirtland, Ohio Section 49 - Historical Background: A man named Leman Copley was a recent convert from a religious group called the Shakers, or the Shaking Quakers. He was so excited about the gospel that he wanted to present it to his former church members located near Cleveland, Ohio. The founder of the Shakers was a woman named Ann Lee, who had once been involved in a miserable marriage. Much of her religion was built around her opposition to marriage and the relations that went with it. “Mother Lee” was regarded as the returned Christ, meat was forbidden to eat, baptism was unnecessary and a celibate life was required. Before sending missionaries to this group, Joseph asked the Lord how to approach the concepts of these people.    Recap: The Lord calls Sidney Rigdon and Parley P. Pratt to teach the Shakers, including Leman Copley, so Leman can convince his former congregation the truths of the Gospel. If they accept it, they shall be saved. Otherwise they shall be damned. The Lord specifies true gospel concepts to be taught: The Lord has not yet come the second time; Believe on Jesus Christ; Repent; Be Baptized and receive the Holy Ghost; Marriage is ordained of God; Meat is ordained for the use of man if not wasted; and Christ will return in the heavens – not as a woman or a man walking the earth. [Note: This missionary effort was completely rejected by the Shakers, and even Leman Copley abandoned the church, breaking promises and covenants he made previously.]  Section 50 - Historical Background: Numerous converts were flooding into the church, making it difficult to manage the many new branches spreading abroad. Especially troublesome were the perverted beliefs many converts brought into the church from their former religion. A false and lying spirit was beginning to infiltrate the church, including false visions, prophesies and manifestations of spiritual possession. Some church leaders became concerned and approached Joseph to inquire of the Lord. Together, they all knelt in prayer and Joseph received this revelation.  Recap: There are many false spirits in the world, intending to deceive the world and especially the saints. Within the church there are some hypocrites (pretenders) who have deceived some, but they will be detected and cut off. The Elders are to preach according to the Spirit of God – if by any other means it is not of God. If the Spirit they receive does not edify, it is a false spirit. That which is of God is light, to chase away the darkness. If one cannot discern whether the spirit be good or evil, ask God. If it is evil, humbly but firmly denounce that spirit.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with novelist Marilyn Higgins and explore how fiction can make history more accessible and relevant, shedding light on how 19th-century issues echo in today's world. We also discuss the growing trend of novel tourism, where travelers experience destinations through the lens of stories and literature. This trend sparks new ways to experience and celebrate unique places through the magic of narrative and place-based journeys. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Marilyn's personal connection to Upstate New York and the Erie Canal inspired her to write a historical fiction novel centered on the region What historical events, cultural diversity, and social issues are woven into the plot of Dreams Of Freedom: An Irish Woman's Story Of Love, Justice, And A Young Nation Coming Apart, and how they resonate with current issues in the United States How novel tourism uses stories and book-based experiences to attract visitors and deepen their connection to destinations Why Marilyn views historical fiction as a powerful way to make local history accessible and engaging for a wide audience, including those outside the region What Marilyn is doing to encourage book clubs and travelers to explore Upstate New York through her comprehensive guide that pairs the novel with local site visits Community, Collaboration, and Storytelling Our discussion centers around Marilyn's historical novel, Dreams of Freedom: An Irish Woman's Story of Love, Justice, and a Young Nation Coming Apart, and the power of novel tourism to revitalize destinations by connecting literary narratives to real-world locales. Marilyn, who has deep roots in Upstate New York, has dedicated her career to economic and community development, immersing herself in the Erie Canal's vibrant history. Her novel traces the journey of Aileen O'Malley, a young Irish immigrant, as she traverses Upstate New York in search of her family, who were swept up in the tumultuous social currents of the 19th century. What makes Dreams of Freedom so compelling isn't just its emotionally resonant narrative but its grounding in real history. The book explores connections to the Underground Railroad, the emergence of religious movements like the Shakers and Mormons, and the abolition and women's rights movements. Walking Through History Novel tourism invites readers to journey through the landscapes that inspired their favorite books. Higgins envisions her books prompting book clubs and travelers to explore the Erie Canal region, walking in the footsteps of her characters. This is why she's created a comprehensive, free guide for book clubs, available on her website, which maps out immersive experiences in towns like Canastota, Seneca Falls, and Oswego. Visitors can attend historical reenactments, visit storied landmarks, and engage with the same vibrant communities that shaped her novel's plot. This approach deepens readers' engagement and drives meaningful economic and cultural impact for local destinations. Novel Tourism in Practice Novel tourism is already being put into practice. For example, Visit Buffalo Niagara, the region's destination marketing organization, has selected Dreams of Freedom for its annual book club, tying in with the 200th anniversary of the Erie Canal and the upcoming World Canals Conference. This initiative brings together local travel providers, tour operators, and literary enthusiasts, fostering connection and collaboration while promoting Upstate New York's unique heritage. There is such a powerful synergy between literature and place. By weaving together history, fiction, and tourism, Marilyn has created a blueprint for how destinations, especially those underrepresented in the national story, can use their authentic narratives to draw new audiences to their destination.

Big Questions is our series where we'll be diving into real, honest conversations about the questions we all have but don't always talk about. Whether you're curious, skeptical, or just want to grow in understanding, this series is for YOU! - To launch the series Pastor Mark Foster brought a message titled - Who am I? It's a brilliant message and you can catch up here, and if you want to watch it, go to our YouTube channel!

In this, the last episode in our current series, the Movers & Shakers have gathered at the Notting Hill pub with (most of) their spouses, to talk about how to navigate a relationship after the diagnosis. With the able assistance of a relationship expert, Gillian and Mike, Mark and Jo, Paul and Julie, Nick and Liz, and Rory – riding solo – talk through the ups and downs of coupledom in the wake of the Parkinson's reveal. Honest, revealing and often very funny, this is a guide on how to (or, perhaps, how not to) stick it out.

The rumor mill is starting to heat up ahead of tonight's draft. Ashton Jeanty is one of the best players in this class and could be one of the biggest shakers in the first round. We then listened back to our conversation with DJ Shockley.

In the winter of 1817, a caravan of half-starved Swabians crossed through miles of frozen forests to find their promised land: Ohio. In accordance with their egalitarian ethos and inspired by apocalyptic prophecy, these men and women rejected private ownership and held all things in common. This radical commune, which they called Zoar, would be the most successful intentional community in American history and one of the most enduring socialist experiments, lasting several years longer than even the Soviet Union.Gladio Free Europe's Ohio correspondent Jern (@realJernfer) returns for another stirring story of the Buckeye state. Founded by Pietist refugees from the German state of Wurttemberg, Zoar put into practice the same kinds of radical ideas discussed previously among the Anabaptists, Quakers, and Shakers. Unlike most other communes, including Robert Owen's enlightenment dream of New Harmony, Zoar was stable and prosperous. Succeeding where so many others failed, the commune held together across multiple generations and even developed an early industrial economy. It attracted the envy and admiration of many other communities, including the controversial free-love society of Oneida.Zoar saw itself as a refugee from the sinful and venal world outside, taking its name from the town that sheltered the Biblical Lot after the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. Yet the community's influence over Ohio trade and finance meant the outside world could not be kept away. Ultimately, Zoar would be a victim of its own success, as its wealthy residents decided to dissolve the commune and divvy up their belongings into private hands. Despite ultimately failing in its mission to secede from the world of material things, Zoar is an inspiring story of what it looks like to build the New Moral World. And although its founders were sectarian socialists from the Holy Roman Empire, who spoke little English and had even less interest in the broader national project, the undaunted ambition of Zoar makes this small commune a quintessential chapter of American history.

April 23, 2025 - With the ever-growing need to understand ourselves and humanity as a whole, it is necessary to examine the concepts of morality, ethics and universal values as guiding principles of the human condition.

A finalist for a Kirkus Prize, the book was long-listed for the Carnegie Medal, nominated for the Goodreads Choice Awards, and supported by a Whiting Creative Nonfiction Writing Grant.
