Joseph Spencer looks at four historical models of discourses that are present in Mormonism. Next is an article about the importance of music in Christian worship, written by a Catholic scholar in England. Next, an astronomer explains the life cycle of stars and notes that Joseph Smith’s revelation on stars (found in the Book of Moses) was decades ahead of the science that would confirm that stars come into existence and pass away.
