Ep 101 — BYU Jerusalem | Corporate Mormonism; Mill Mess Part 4

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Yes, it’s time for our next installment of the Millennial Messiah by Bruce R. McConkie.

We discuss how it came to be, the hurdles overcome, and the strange and mysterious ways in which Mormon God works. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints punched far above its weight class in the sphere of international politics to shoehorn this place onto the Mount of Olives! Then we round out the episode with some happy news about scrap wood being used more sustainably.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Show Links: </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Interview of David Galbraith</span></p> <p><a href= "https://rsc.byu.edu/vol-9-no-1-2008/jerusalem-center-near-eastern-studies-reflections-modern-pioneer"> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://rsc.byu.edu/vol-9-no-1-2008/jerusalem-center-near-eastern-studies-reflections-modern-pioneer</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Orson Hyde: A Life of Lessons Learned by Roy Huff</span></p> <p><a href= "https://rsc.byu.edu/vol-3-no-2-2002/orson-hyde-life-lessons-learned"> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://rsc.byu.edu/vol-3-no-2-2002/orson-hyde-life-lessons-learned</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Eliza R.
