The 10 June 2018 episode\u00a0of the Interpreter Radio Show<\/a> is now available for your listening convenience on the Interpreter Foundation\u2019s principal website. \u00a0This program\u2019s discussants included Allen Wyatt, John Gee, Hales Swift, and Jared Ludlow, and the conversation centered on the release of Dr. Ludlow\u2019s new introductory book,\u00a0Exploring the Apocrypha from a Latter-day Saint Perspective<\/em>. Participants in the program explored concepts and ideas related to the Apocrypha and how the Apocrypha relate both to the Church and to personal scripture study. In addition, the discussion also examined the challenges provided in the June 3 youth \u201cfireside\u201d by President Russell M. Nelson.<\/p>\n

Moreover, two new Old Testament \u201cKnoWhys\u201d are up on the Interpreter Foundation website, designed to help teachers and students in the Gospel Doctrine classes of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints:<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHow Does the Story of David\u2019s Loyalty to Saul Apply in Our Day?<\/a>\u201c: \u00a0An Old Testament KnoWhy[1] relating to the reading assignment for Gospel Doctrine Lesson 23: \u201cThe Lord Be Between Thee and Me Forever\u201d (1 Samuel 18-20; 23-24) (JBOTL23A)<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Do you find such things valuable? \u00a0Have you enjoyed them? \u00a0Profited from them?<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you have, would you consider contributing something to support our efforts? \u00a0Obviously, large contributions are welcome. \u00a0But even modest donations are very helpful.<\/p>\n

\u201cFun Fact: Zelph on the Shelf Doesn\u2019t Know What They Are Talking About\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

This is a part of Mormon history<\/a> that all Latter-day Saints should know:<\/p>\n
