    Ep. 11: Why faith?

    This week we examine questions like: What is the point of God making us relying on faith?  Why can’t we just see things?  Would it be so bad to follow Him and believe in Him after seeing Him and His power?  Would it be so awful if Christ just physically manifested Himself to all of us individually or collectively so that we could all know truth together?  What’s the point of withholding proof of truth to us?  Is it that God couldn’t prove to everyone that He is real or is it that such is undesirable? https://workandwonder756456887.wordpress.com/

    Ep. 10: Is being nice a commandment?

    Have you ever heard someone describe members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as being "nice"? Is being nice a commandment or is it ever a bad thing? This week I discuss this topic. Give comments and suggestions or feedback via my website: https://workandwonder756456887.wordpress.com/

    Ep. 6: Mistakes in The Book of Mormon

    Welcome to episode six of the podcast! The title is catchy but don't worry, I'm not attacking The Book of Mormon here. This week I look at why The Book of Mormon is sometimes wordy or inefficient in its writing style. I talk about some reasons why this could be and how The Book of Mormon still stands pure and true as an authentic witness of Jesus Christ and His restored church.  Check out my website here: https://workandwonder756456887.wordpress.com/ Some other resources referenced in this episode: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observer_effect_(physics) https://www.jefflindsay.com/LDSFAQ/wordy.shtml https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/which-languages-were-spoken-in-ancient-egypt.html

    Ep. 5: Messianic Types

    This week we talk about Christ in ancient scripture. Christ is testified of all over the place in the Old Testament, sometimes through symbols and other times explicitly. The Book of Mormon explicitly testifies of Christ and is a pure and deliberate witness of His divine role as Savior and Redeemer of mankind.  Here's the link to the Work and Wonder Podcast website: https://workandwonder756456887.wordpress.com/ Other references: http://www.abideinchrist.com/messages/mesproty.html

    Ep. 2: Faith, Hope, and Charity

    Welcome to the Work and Wonder Podcast. Today we examine faith, hope, and charity in depth. We address three  questions throughout the episode:   Does hope turn into faith or does faith turn into hope?  Why does Moroni 7:45 sound like 1 Corinthians 13?  Can you have Charity if your faith and hope fail?  Here are the articles/resources referenced: https://www.blueletterbible.org https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/video/special-witnesses-of-christ?lang=eng https://www.fairlatterdaysaints.org/answers/Book_of_Mormon/Plagiarism_accusations/King_James_Bible#Question:_Does_the_Book_of_Mormon_plagiarize_the_King_James_Bible.3F

    Ep. 1: Do you really know Abinadi?

    Show Notes Welcome to the Work and Wonder Podcast. This episode is the first in the series. Ep. 1: Do you really know Abinadi? I summarize some events during Abinadi’s life and introduce some insights that may give some new perspective on where the wicked priests of king Noah were coming from and what Abinadi was ultimately saying in his message to the priests and king Noah. Here are the articles referenced: https://knowhy.bookofmormoncentral.org/knowhy/why-would-noahs-priests-quiz-abinadi-on-isaiah https://rsc.byu.edu/living-book-mormon-abiding-its-precepts/abinadi-father-son-interpretation-application https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/ensign/2002/04/the-father-and-the-son?lang=eng
