Joseph

Have you ever wondered how people can say that they love the prophet Joseph when they've never even met him? He did live over 200 years ago at a time when the world looked quite different from what we see out our windows. Joseph, a new Deseret Bookshelf Plus Original hosted by beloved historian and writer Heidi Swinton, invites us on a personal journey across time and continents to discover what it looks like to "know brother Joseph" today. With a charming mix of storytelling, music, historical context, and personal experience from Heidi and her friends (some you'll recognize and some who will be new to you) this 7-episode podcast series offers listeners the chance to explore their relationship with Joseph and how that relationship can ultimately lead us closer to Christ.

Unnamed Women of the Old Testament: The Weavers

Building the tabernacle described in the Old Testament was no easy feat. We read about all those cubits and how there were specifications about everything. Even the people who helped had to be “wise-hearted” and willing to give only the best of the best. In this episode of Unnamed Women of the Old Testament, we will tell the stories of the weavers—women who lent their hands and wise hearts to create the veils and priestly garments for the first tabernacle. We’ll also learn how their vital, sacred contributions were echoed by the women who helped build the Nauvoo and Kirtland temples in the latter days.
