Contact

1 day ago by J G-W

Last night as a family we watched the movie Contact, starring Jodie Foster and Matthew McConnaughy. I remembered not being particularly impressed by this film back in 1997 when we first saw it in theaters. When Glen suggested we watch it, I was sort of lukewarm about popping the videotape into the V ...

2 days ago by J G-W

(2 Chron. 34: 2)There is an attitude common among believers that it is not possible to be "too" zealous for God. After all, God expects us to ...

Provider/Nurturer

11 days ago by J G-W

In August 2006, I had a spiritual experience while attending Church with my parents in Springville, UT. The Spirit very clearly told me that I needed to open myself to the possibility of having children. This seemed like an odd prompting to me at the time. When I came out back in the late 1980s, I s ...

Surrogates

27 days ago by J G-W

Recently, Göran and I went to see the movie Surrogates, starring Bruce Willis. The film (for those of you who somehow managed to have missed the TV and theatrical previews) is set in the near future, in a time when people no longer interact with the real world. Instead, 98% of the world's population ...

The Lord's Anointed

32 days ago by J G-W

King Saul is ultimately rejected by God because of his disobedience to the word of God as conveyed to him by the prophet Samuel. On the surfa ...

Printing the Sermons of Joseph Smith

44 days ago by boaporg

A comprehensive discussion of any text will often address imprints in various levels of detail. No exception here. Surprisingly, the technical details of the enterprise of printing Joseph Smith’s sermons seem to be better known for 19th century efforts than those of the 20th century. No 19th century ...

Back on January 29th of this year, I spotted on GoogleBooks the full text of Volume 2 of Eduard Seler’s commentary on Codex Vaticanus 3773, otherwise known as Vaticanus B. I said I’d be watching for Google to finish scanning Volume 1 and post it… and guess what, it’s finally up in its entirety. It c ...
