Worthily partake of the Sacrament? That seems backwards. The people who need the Atonement in their life, and the blessings of the Sacrament are the unworthy. The ones that need to partake.

Worthy people don't need to partake - last week's Sacrament partaking is still good for them... and if they stay worthy the coming week - they are good to go again. If worthy people take each week - it becomes rote - and just a thoughtless gesture without meditation.

Someone overshot the runway.

I see it as who is worthy of the Atonement when approaching the Sacrament table. I dont think you can do so casually, thus the need to prepare. I would also think that no one approaches the Sacrament in any given week without the need of the Atonement based upon what has transpired in their lives since the last time. But maybe I'm just projecting.

The edits to the temple recommend interview questions are interesting. I think one is: "The Lord has said that all things are to be done in cleanliness before Him. Do you strive for moral cleanliness in your thoughts and behavior?" I don't think that was there before (or perhaps I ignored it if it was). More grist for this week's PASG meeting.

And there's a new, or at least expanded, question on whether one keeps the Sabbath Day holy. My sis-in-law's stake in Arizona has decreed that watching TV on Sunday is a Sabbath violation, so temple attendance in Mesa may drop precipitously.

It's a good thing that the stake's interpretation doesn't apply to anything, then.

Just trying to give John Delhin and Moliere some fresh podcast material.

Next April will be the bi-millennial + 1 score celebration of the Atonement Savior's birth, so I’m sure it will still get a mention or two.

Good to see you're getting your criticism cranked up so far in advance. Why wait until you have any idea whatsoever about the actual content? Because, you know, how can it be about Christ when it is celebrating a vision of Christ?

Huh?

A Praise-to-the-Man-athon? Ugh. So much for our renewed efforts to make the Savior the focus of the Church.

Elder Peter M. Johnson has a pretty interesting background. Grew up in Queens. Was a rapper that did weddings and other small community gigs, became a Muslim at age 12. At age 14, he moved to Hawaii to live with his mother. Played basketball for BYU-H. He transferred to play for Dixie State where he joined the church.

Mack Wilberg stops just short of taking a literal $*** on Charles H. Gabriel’s grave with that rendition of “I Stand All Amazed.”
