Wonderful video. Something I have always wondered about: Hebrews 11:40 is always quoted (over and over) as it appears, that is--they w/o us should not be made perfect. Ive never heard the JST footnote quoted: w/o sufferings they coud not be made perfect. It has never made sense that someone in my family could prevent me from being made perfect.
With sincerest respect for this video’s intent, I have no desire to be a gospel scholar or to mimic academic gimmick. I have immense respect for our great faithful scholars (especially this one, Bob Millet), and I have a university degree in Religious Studies. But I read the scriptures to save my life. I have little interest in being able to raise my hand in a stimulating gospel discussion. I don’t need to be stimulated, I need to be fed-to learn one thought with spiritual experience. _Single idea,_ not single theme. A Second Hour teacher is not called to teach information, they are there to give spiritual experience in connection to a thought. Just my thin opinion.

Is there a place where Pres Joseph F Smith's talk "In the presence of the divine" can be found please?
