11.11.15

Backman. 01/1985 1st vision
The four surviving recitals of this theophany were prepared or rendered through different scribes, at different times, from a different perspective, for different purposes and to different audiences.
Of utmost importance was not the specific language in which the truths were unfolded but the truths themselves.

My favorite thing I learned :
The First Vision did not occur after a brief quest but took place following a 2-3 year inquiry initiated by Joseph's concern for the welfare of his soul.

(I love technology. I read the talks on my Kindle cuz it's bigger, I highlight awesome things, then I sync my scriptures app. I open the app on my phone and the copy and paste the awesome quotes into a text that I send to my family. I have not missed a single day this year. <3 )
