Another Good Interview

I just finished an interview with Martin Tanner of KSL Radio. We spoke about my books the Essential Old Testament Companion and Return Unto Me, my Book of Abraham lectures, and the Book of Abraham in general. He was great to work with. He took my wife and I on a tour of KSL studios beforehand, which we enjoyed. The interview will be broadcast on KSL radio (1160 am 102.7 fm in Utah) this Sunday at 6:30 am, 10 am, and 9:30 pm. When it is archived I will post the link here. Hope you all enjoy!

Pleased with interview

I just finished an interview with Carole Makita about my book Return Unto Me. (see http://returnuntome.blogspot.com/)  I feel like it went well (Carole is so good at this she made it easy). It will air on KSL radio (1160 AM, 102.7 FM in Utah, or online at http://www.ksl.com/?nid=16) on Sunday morning (Sept. 22), at 8 am and again at 5 pm (MDT). Pass the word along to anyone you know who might be interested.

Classes and interviews

It has been wonderful to have the Fall semester start. After two weeks of classes it has been so much fun. Nice to be back in the saddle again. What amazing students we have at BYU.

I am so pleased. I will be interviewed by Carole Makita for KSL radio next Tuesday about my Old Testament books, and by Martin Tanner of KSL radio the week after about my Book of Abraham lectures. I am so happy to be able to get some help in spreading my message!

Hitting the Bookstores

I just had two books and a lecture series on cd come out. The books are on the Old Testament and the lectures are on the Book of Abraham. 

One of the books, "Return Unto Me" has a lot of my heart and soul in it, and I feel so strongly that its message will make such a huge difference for each person who reads it. 

The Essential Old Testament Companion will help every one understand the Old Testament and see how it applies to their life.

The Book of Abraham lectures will help answer questions so many people have about the Book of Abraham.

These items are available at Seagull Books and Amazon, and should be in Deseret Book next week.

I would love it if you would like their facebook pages. You can also check them out on their blogspot pages. We are hoping to create a flurry of activity online so that more people can learn about the messages I am trying to convey in these publications. I think they have important messages. Hope you will check it out, like it, and share it.  Thanks!

Conference Possibility

I have been contacted about participating on a conference about children in the Graeco-Roman world. I think our excavation can contribute a lot of valuable information about children in Roman Egypt, so I am excited. The fact that the conference will be in Sydney, Australia doesn't hurt either.

We will have to keep an eye on this one and see if it turns out to be a good thing. I'll keep you posted.

Exhibit

The exhibit about our excavation in BYU's Joseph Smith Building is looking good. I think we might need to do a few repairs, but we should soon be able to hold an open house and officially open the thing. It looks great!
