  • Isaiah, Christ, and the Day of Atonement/Yom Kippur (week of Oct. 3, third to listen to)

    In this shortcast Kerry discusses how our Isaiah reading coincides with the celebration of Yom Kippur. He shows briefly how Isaiah 58, a traditional reading for the Day of Atonement), fits into the Day of Atonement. He spends more time on Isaiah 61 and the verses Christ read in the synagogue at Nazareth, and how Isaiah and Christ were drawing on the imagery of the Jubilee Year and the Day of Atonement, and what that has to do with us.

  • The Covenant Lens Reveals Much More in Isaiah 50-57 (week of Septeber 26, fourth to listen to)

    Kerry shares on the podcast an in-service lesson he presented to seminary teachers about the chapters covered in Come Follow Me this week.

About The Scriptures Are Real

From the publisher's feed

The Scriptures Are Real (TSAR) with Kerry Muhlestein is a podcast where we look at elements of the scriptures that have become real to us. We interview both experts (people with language, archaeological, historical backgrounds, etc.), and lay folks, and explore times when the scriptures became real to them. This is done from the viewpoint of members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We believe that there is real power in the scriptures and that as they become more real we can better apply them to our lives and draw more power from them.
