The 13 January 2019 broadcast of the Interpreter Radio Show featured\u00a0Martin Tanner<\/a>, John Gee<\/a>, Kevin Christensen<\/a>, and guest Grant Hardy<\/a>. \u00a0The discussion for the first hour centered on Professor Hardy\u2019s new study edition of the Book of Mormon<\/a>. \u00a0The second hour was devoted to a Come Follow Me<\/em> roundtable on the lesson for Matthew 3, Mark 1, and Luke 3 (Come, Follow Me<\/em>\u00a0Lesson 5).<\/p>\n

That audio roundtable \u2014\u00a0for\u00a0Come, Follow Me<\/em>\u00a0New Testament Lesson 5,\u00a0\u201cPrepare Ye the Way of the Lord,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>covering Matthew 3, Mark 1 and Luke 3 \u2014 is also available as a stand-alone item that we hope will be useful to individuals, families and teachers in connection with this year\u2019s Gospel Doctrine curriculum:<\/p>\n

Panelists for the roundtable are Martin Tanner, John Gee, and Kevin Christensen.<\/p>\n

I really liked Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf\u2019s use of the famous story of violinist\u00a0Joshua Bell<\/a>\u00a0playing near the Washington DC Metro station<\/a> in the remarks that Elder Uchtdorf delivered today at BYU\u2019s devotional assembly:<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Incidentally, I\u2019m amazed at the travel schedule that members of the Twelve (and other General Authorities) keep. \u00a0I participated in a small meeting on Thursday afternoon where Elder Ronald Rasband was also present \u2014 and, on Monday, he was leading tours through the Rome Italy Temple.<\/p>\n

Those of you who care about BYU sports, or football more generally, or, for that matter, the Gospel of Jesus Christ might find this relatively short video (from the New Orleans Saints organization) of interest:<\/p>\n

Something that I didn\u2019t know:<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe FBI has been tracking crimes against Latter-day Saints for 3 years. Here\u2019s why\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

I have problems, actually, with the concept of \u201chate crimes.\u201d \u00a0I think that the concept of \u201ccrimes\u201d ought generally to be sufficient. \u00a0But if some groups are going to be singled out for special protection, I suppose I can\u2019t really object if mine is among them.<\/p>\n
