Glass Box Podcast

The Book of Mormon is a fascinating work of literature, teeming with stories of prophets, kings, and warriors on the pre-Columbian American continent. Is it a holy writ of ancient history and Christian theology, or did it come from a more recent source. On this podcast, we aim to find out if there are books out there similar to the Book of Mormon that were produced prior to 1830 when the Book of Mormon was released.

  Episode #209

  Ep 209 — IP #2 - Scripture and Canonization | Learning the Great Fundamentals by Dallin Oaks

  Aug 18, 20261h 43m

  Today is Imposition Paper #2 - Scripture and Canonization. What is scripture and what is its role in Mormonism? This Imposition Paper seeks to reform the cultural perspective on revelation and canonization in hopes of creating a more healthy relationship with scripture and allowing necessary revisions as society progresses. Then we jump into the second book of Dallin Oaks, his most recent Learning the Great Fundamentals: Jesus Christ, Priesthood, and the Plan of Salvation . This is a compilation of his talks edited by two church employees. This will help us compare his rookie card, Pure in Heart , to his book published as he ascended to the mantle of prophet. Then we have happy green energy news coming out of Utah!

  Episode #208

  Ep 208 — "Bachelor Delight"; Sunstone Wrap | Vera Drake

  Aug 4, 20262h 1m

  It's our annual Sunstone week and we recorded in the same space again! From The Dragon Lair 2.0, we give you Bryce's session from Sunstone titled " Bachelor Delight: Entheogens, Soporifics, Abortifacients, and STI Treatment in Nauvoo Polygamy". Content warning: some of these topics are kinda rough, but we feel the information should be out there in Mormon academia nonetheless. Following that, we talk about the 2004 movie Vera Drake. We close it out with some amazing news coming from 4 states, two of which are red states, who chose to give more access to contraception rather than allowing the Trump administration to take it away.
