Critical Race Theory Reaches Deseret Book

New online courses by Deseret Book had planned an "Antiracist" CRT course to go live recently. However, due to the author of the course criticizing Elder Holland and his BYU speech, the course was not launched. Deseret Book emails show that they wanted the course, even "championed" the voice of the author who supports tenets of Critical Race Theory and who is currently studying Liberation Theology in grad school.

Come Follow Me LDS - The Garden of Eden and The Fall

- Eve was beguiled but should be held up higher on a pedestal for a righteous choice. - The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil represents the Law of God among other things. - "Death" in the Garden of Eden is more about judgment than mortal death. - Cain's sacrifice is given greater meaning when compared to Adam's sacrifice. It is about the Doctrine of Christ.   Website - https://www.cwicmedia.com

Come Follow Me LDS - Moses 1 and Abraham 3 Part 2

Prelude to Creation Part 2 - Moses 1 Moses 1 is a companion chapter to Abraham 3. Both give a prelude to the visions of the Creation and the Garden of Eden. Very evident in Moses 1 is the theme of "the word" (DBR). The hierarchal structure of the heavens shows that we must be participants in the Fluid Hierarchy. This is how God accomplishes His purpose of bringing "to pass the immortality and eternal life of man."   Website - https://www.cwicmedia.com

Come Follow Me LDS - Abraham 3 & Moses 1, Part 1

Prelude to Creation Abraham 3 and Moses 1 are preludes to the Creation and Garden of Eden stories. They set the stage for these dramas and for the doctrines. Importantly, we discover that these chapters are descriptions of visions that both Abraham and Moses receive. Therefore, we can compare them to other scriptural visions for context and understanding. Kolob then really isn't that strange seen as a metaphor for Christ.   Website - https://www.cwicmedia.com

Come Follow Me LDS - The Politically Incorrect Family Proclamation

A Very Politically Incorrect Document The Family Proclamation is not what it once was. Originally, it inspired yawns from Church members and seemed like a "nothing burger" in 1995. Today, with the attacks on and the deconstruction of traditional families, it appears both prophetic and politically incorrect. Marriage between a man and a woman, gender roles, and the spiritual rights of children all seem like an old Disney movie.   Website - https://www.cwicmedia.com
