It being Friday, a new article — this time, a review by Trevor Holyoak — has appeared in Interpreter: A Journal of Latter-day Saint Faith and Scripture:
“Feast upon the Words of Christ”
Review of Book of Mormon Central, “ScripturePlus” (https://www.scriptureplus.org/); The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, “Gospel Library” (https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/pages/mobileapps/gospellibrary); and Living Tree Software, “ScriptureNotes” (https://scripturenotes.com/).
Abstract: ScriptureNotes is a valuable tool for serious, in-depth scripture study, and it definitely has the best search functionality. ScripturePlus, in its current state, is good for daily reading of the Book of Mormon, thanks to its helpful linked resources. But if you often mark or underline as you read, you’ll need to use Gospel Library, which is also the only app that includes the Church’s vast resources beyond the scriptures.

Interpreter Radio Show — April 12, 2020
You can listen to or download the April 12 broadcast of the Interpreter Radio Show via the link above. The participants were Terry Hutchinson, John Gee, and Kevin Christensen. In this episode, they discuss General Conference, the Proclamation on the Restoration, and missionary work. Also featured was a roundtable on the upcoming Come, Follow Me Book of Mormon lesson #19 on Mosiah 18-24.

Yet more on the website of the Interpreter Foundation:
“Crying with One Voice in King Benjamin’s Address (Mosiah 4-5)”
A Video Supplement for Come, Follow Me Book of Mormon Lesson 16: “A Mighty Change” (Mosiah 4-6)

New, from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a helpful five-minute animated video:
“The Book of Abraham | Now You Know”

I hope that people out there aren’t growing tired of cultivating their Christopher Hitchens Memorial “How Religion Poisons Everything” Files, because the material keeps coming in great volume. Now is not the time to give up! Now is the time to redouble efforts to rid the world of religious faith:
“Criticism of the church’s COVID-19 aid was premature”
“Massive LDS food donation arrives in Idaho Falls”
I think we badly, badly need another round of angry denunciations of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for having built up a rainy day fund in order to be able not only to weather crises but to help others through them.
