Ep 112 — Law of Consecration; Gate to Women’s Country by Sheri S. Tepper

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">What even is the Law of Consecration?! Well it’s a covenant that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints make during the temple endowment ceremony, but what actually is it? We go through a deep dive of the Law of Consecration, discuss a bit of its history, and pontificate about it’s impact and possible future use in Mormon culture today. After that we review Gate to Women’s Country by Sheri S. Tepper, a wonderful dystopian fantasy novel with some hard-hitting social commentary we interpret through a Mormon lens. We round out the episode by congratulating LeVar Burton receiving long-deserved recognition. Patrons: we debrief/deconstruct the recent debate between Bryce and a certain litigious individual.</span></p> <p><br /> <br /></p> <p><strong>Show Notes:</strong> <span style= "font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">All Things are the Lord’s: The Law of Consecration in the Doctrine and Covenants by Steven Harper</span></p> <p><a href= "https://rsc.byu.edu/doctrine-covenants-revelations-context/all-things-are-lords-law-consecration-doctrine-covenants"> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://rsc.byu.edu/doctrine-covenants-revelations-context/all-things-are-lords-law-consecration-doctrine-covenants</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">List of codenames in D&C</span></p> <p><a href= "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_code_names_in_the_Doctrine_and_Covenants"> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_code_names_in_the_Doctrine_and_Covenants</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Thou Art the Man Newel K.
