I'm excited! I got signed up for another online course from BYU! This is the course I really wanted to study in the first place, but I had trouble getting into the course.

My favorite scripture mastery scripture in seminary Old Testament year was Moses 7:18 because I enjoy the idea of having Zion in a family situation. In my Book of Mormon class last semester the focus of discussions about Zion were exciting and new, but also fell into line with the way I like to think about Zion. Dr. Holzapfel's lectures were a completely different thing. I have never thought of Zion as a geographical place before. This, for me, is probably because I don't... Read More
