Series Title: Dialogue Foundation Gospel Study: A Novel Approach to D&C 76 [IV of IV]

In this final episode of Val & Nathan's analysis of D&C 76 through they put all of the pieces together, each with their 'mystical filters' in place!  They take several specific pieces of D&C 76 and apply the principles that they have mentioned thus far in this series. 

Among other things, they explore how & why even the writings of great thinkers and influential spiritual leaders (from all traditions & throughout time!) are subject to cultural biases and personal worldviews that will color their writings.  

They also touch on on how and why even current Mormon theological views (originated by reference to this revelation) on heaven and hell may align—but often actually clash—with the perennial wisdom traditions--*all of which* advocate for eternal growth and progression of God's children. 

In the end, maybe this series will intrigue you enough to jump back to an old section or chapter from the LDS standard works to practice looking at old scripture through new awakening eyes!
