  • Abide: Isaiah 40-49

    19/09/2022 Duração: 28min

    Jesus promises in the Gospel of John that he will not leave us comfortless, but that He will come to us. He promises in Matthew that he will give us rest when we are weary and heavy-laden. In my experience, though, that isn’t at the first instance of pain, whether it’s physical, mental, spiritual, or […] The post Abide: Isaiah 40-49 appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Abide: Isaiah 1-12

    05/09/2022 Duração: 35min

    Isaiah. Latter-day Saints have a special relationship to this Old Testament prophet. Not only do we recognize prophets across all dispensations, but his words were carried by Lehi’s family to the Americas. How do we think about Isaiah? What should we know about the construction of the book of Isaiah? We discuss this, and much […] The post Abide: Isaiah 1-12 appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Abide: Proverbs and Ecclesiastes

    29/08/2022 Duração: 37min

    Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Song of Songs can fall by the wayside when we study them in Sunday School. They don’t always fit into the narratives that we understand about dispensations of authority or give us sustained treatises in the way that a theologian might consider during personal scripture study. However, in preparing for this […] The post Abide: Proverbs and Ecclesiastes appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Abide: Psalms Part Three

    22/08/2022 Duração: 25min

    A book has many lives. It’s thought, it’s edited, it’s printed, it’s reprinted, it’s commentated on, and this repeats, if the book merits it, ad infinitum. This is certainly true for the Bible as a whole, but, I suggest, for the Psalms in particular. How do we think about Psalms as an ancient text conveyed […] The post Abide: Psalms Part Three appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • (Reuploaded) Maxwell Institute Podcast #147: Slavery, Sacred Texts, and Historical Consciousness, with Jordan Watkins

    17/08/2022 Duração: 50min

    In the decades before the Civil War, Americans appealed to the nation’s sacred religious and legal texts – the Bible and the Constitution – to address the slavery crisis. The ensuing political debates over slavery deepened interpreters’ emphasis on historical readings of the sacred texts, and in turn, these readings began to highlight the unbridgeable […] The post (Reuploaded) Maxwell Institute Podcast #147: Slavery, Sacred Texts, and Historical Consciousness, with Jordan Watkins appeared first on Neal A.

  • Abide: Psalms Part Two

    15/08/2022 Duração: 19min

    One of the first things I tell my students, and that I repeat throughout a semester, is that texts do not interpret themselves. Every time a person reads scripture they see it with new eyes and with shifting perspectives. The words on the page may be the same, though, of course, with the Bible, those […] The post Abide: Psalms Part Two appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Abide: Psalms Part One

    08/08/2022 Duração: 24min

    Psalms! There’s over 150 of them marked in the book by the same name in the Old Testament. How can we read them? Are they more useful as a narrative thread, or as a spice to season our spiritual diet? We’ll discuss that and much more on today’s episode of “Abide: A Maxwell Institute Podcast.” The post Abide: Psalms Part One appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Abide: Job

    04/08/2022 Duração: 32min

    Job, as a literary and biblical figure, gives us a lot to think about. He goes from riches to rags to riches again. He loses his family but begins another. He’s at the center of a contest between god and a devilish character. He relies on his friends but those same friends accuse him of […] The post Abide: Job appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Maxwell Institute Podcast #146: God’s Original Grace, with Adam Miller

    01/08/2022 Duração: 31min

    In Original Grace, Adam S. Miller proposes an experiment in Restoration thinking: What if instead of implicitly affirming the traditional logic of original sin, we, as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, emphasized the deeper reality of God’s original grace? What if we broke entirely with the belief that suffering can sometimes be deserved and claimed that […] The post Maxwell Institute Podcast #146: God’s Original Grace, with Adam Miller appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Abide: Esther

    28/07/2022 Duração: 32min

    Can one be directed by God when one doesn’t know that one is being directed? The answer, of course, is yes. We learn about how God directed Esther in ways that may not have been recognizable to her, to ancient Israelites, and in ways that still surprise us today. We’ll discuss that, and more, in […] The post Abide: Esther appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Maxwell Institute Podcast #145: The Idea of the “Heathen” with Kathryn Gin Lum

    27/07/2022 Duração: 27min

    If an eighteenth-century cleric told you that the difference between “civilization and heathenism is sky-high and star-far,” the words would hardly come as a shock. But that statement was written by an American missionary in 1971. In a sweeping historical narrative, Kathryn Gin Lum shows how the idea of the heathen has been maintained from the […] The post Maxwell Institute Podcast #145: The Idea of the “Heathen” with Kathryn Gin Lum appeared first on Neal A.

  • Abide: 2 Kings 17-25

    14/07/2022 Duração: 28min

    How do we learn from failure? Especially the end of an organization as large as a kingdom? What if two kingdoms fall? Today, as we look at the end of both Kingdoms of Israel, I hope that we can explore what it means to understand a people’s historical failures and recognize that modern people are […] The post Abide: 2 Kings 17-25 appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Abide: 2 Kings 2-7

    07/07/2022 Duração: 20min

    Elijah and Elisha are well-known to Latter-day Saints. The prophecy that Elijah would return was foretold in each of the four books of the Latter-day Saint canon. Indeed, Elijah visited the Prophet Joseph Smith and his counselor, Sidney Rigdon, in the Kirtland Temple, restoring the keys of the sealing power to the earth. Elisha may […] The post Abide: 2 Kings 2-7 appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Abide: 1 Kings 17-19

    30/06/2022 Duração: 29min

    Solomon’s reign was glorious, but what he gained in wealth, wives and infrastructure he lost in spiritual standing. He had not been faithful to the God of Israel. Instead, he adopted a cosmopolitanism that accommodated the religious preferences of his wives. However, God kept faith with David and Solomon, and the kingdom was split in […] The post Abide: 1 Kings 17-19 appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Maxwell Podcast Episode #144: A Spiritual Life in Literature, with Matthew Wickman

    21/06/2022 Duração: 46min

    Spiritual experiences are famously transformative. They sometimes inspire dramatic effects of conversion and healing, of vision and new life direction. But even in their more quotidian forms they expand our cognitive and emotional capacities, help cultivate virtues, and intensify our feelings of closeness to God, others, and things we deem ultimate. For Matthew Wickman, spiritual experience […] The post Maxwell Podcast Episode #144: A Spiritual Life in Literature, with Matthew Wickman appeared first on Neal A. Maxwell Institute | BYU.

  • Abide: 1 Samuel 8-10; 13; 15-18

    17/06/2022 Duração: 37min

    In Mosiah 29, Mosiah says that “if it were possible that you could have bjust men to be your kings, who would establish the claws of God, and judge this people according to his commandments, yea, if ye could have men for your kings who would do even as my father dBenjamin did for this […] The post Abide: 1 Samuel 8-10; 13; 15-18 appeared first on Neal A.
