In Memoriam: Richard H. Cracroft

September 27, 2012

Dialogue author and former Associate Editor Richard H. Cracroft passed away last week and in honor of his life, we bring back his classic review of President Spencer W. Kimball’s The Miracle of Forgiveness wherein he says “Throughout, however, Elder Kimball’s message is clear: he, like the Lord, will not tolerate the sin, but he will love the sinner. This gentle but authoritative tone becomes a pattern in his correspondence (from which he quotes frequently), a pattern of practical advice coupled with spirituality. President Kimball clearly feels comfortable in blending the short and the long range to achieve happiness in human relationships.” Click in his full observations.

Winter 2012 Issue

January 4, 2013

By Brian ChristensenFor those with premium access, the Winter 2012 issue is up and begins with two path-breaking articles—Stephen Taysom frames a discussion of the gold plates in terms of Robert Orsi’s theory of “abundant events,” and Walter Van Beek uses the history of the Dutch temple to ask important questions about how temples work within communities to create sacred space. There are also two wonderful personal essays—one lighthearted, one wrenching, both deeply thoughtful. The Fiction section offers stories from two of the best Mormon storytellers of their generations—Levi Peterson and Jack Harrell. Excellent new poetry, curated by new poetry editor Tyler Chadwick, and several informative and thought-provoking book reviews round out the issue. The issue concludes with a talk by Russell Hancock, on learning to pray on one’s feet as well as one’s knees—finding a way forward to spiritual growth and confidence even in the absence of unmistakable spiritual manifestations.
If you don’t have premium access, you can purchase individual articles for $1.99 each, pick up the entire issue for $15.00, or become a subscriber and enjoy Dialogue content for an entire year!

Review: James E. Faulconer's The Doctrine and Covenants Made Harder

June 10, 2013

The Doctrine and Covenants Made Harder: Scripture Study Questions
James E. Faulconer, Richard L. Evans Chair for Religious Understanding and professor of Philosophy at BYU, has recently published what is essentially a study aid for this years’ Sunday School course in the Doctrine and Covenants. The book can be considered a supplement and companion to his earlier, Scripture Study: Tools and Suggestions (the full text is available at the link). Like Scripture Study, Doctrine and Covenants Made Harder is more properly a tool or a guide than a book (a similar volume on the Book of Mormon is forthcoming). Consisting almost entirely of questions about key passages in the scriptural text (though with occasional commentary in order to clarify a particular question), the book is designed to stimulate discussion about the scriptures.
