A very cool invention and research tool: #BYUStudies #BookOfMormon Art Catalog, along with some really cool comparison of #Rubens and #Rembrandt. https://byustudies.byu.edu/article/the-book-of-mormon-art-catalog/

Reflecting lately on the religious-affective difference between miracles and blessings. The former startle, awe, compel belief. The latter drop gently, fit the shape of budding life, leave space for breath. Miracles suggest divine necessity, blessings God's pleasure.

Jesus raising Lazarus: miracle. The depth of his relationship with that family (the shared experience of joy, sorrow, hope): blessing.

Late afternoon summer sunlight: miracle. The breeze...

It is amazing how much better (worlds apart, really) is the writing and emotional connection between CW's #SupermanAndLois and season 8 of #Flash. S3E1 of SaL showed several scenes of spousal connection, and people (teenage, divorce, grandparent/grandchild) dealing seeking connection. Plus someone being brought back to life and made unwillingly super by an evil arms dealer and fighting Superman. Oh, and parenting boundaries, re: when to allow your teenager to deal with international disasters.

A classic missionary scripture. In what sense are the proclaimers (Missionaries? Prophets? Teachers?) responsible for the blood of others? #Scripture #PersonalStudies #responsibility #BookOfMormon

People tell me my kids are "well-behaved"

It's always bothered me. I finally understand why

People think my kids "obey" me

But they don't

We live in harmony through mutual respect & kindness

The way my kids "behave" isn't possible through orders. It's possible through love❤️

80% solved the problem of glasses fogging in my mask this winter! Stylish cloth over-mask prevents *almost all the glasses fog, and what's left is partial and not vision-obscuring @ericajaneo
