Good News

Very happy about some book reviews I received in Deseret News. "Return Unto Me" was described as "Powerful and Profound," http://www.deseretnews.com/article/865593417/Book-review-6Return-Unto-Me7-is-powerful-and-profound.html and, while I can't find it online, yesterday's "Mormon Times" had my "Essential Companion to Your Study of the Old Testament," on its front page. Happy day.

Lecture Series in Hawaii goes well

 Dr. Muhlestein was recently in Hawaii as the lecturer for the 2013 Joseph Smith Lecture Series. As part of that he did a lecture on God's Love as exhibited in the Old Testament, featuring ideas found in his Return Unto Me book. The lecture went very well, and the question and answer session afterwards was wonderful.

Dr. Muhlestein also delivered the devotional address at BYU Hawaii on the Book of Abraham and revelation. It was broadcast on BYU TV, and the text and video are available online (best viewed in Safari and Google Chrome we are told.

Lectures on Joseph Smith being tutored during his family's poverty and other faculty discussions also went well.
