For several months, site development and blog posts have been suspended, as behind-the-scenes technical developments have taken place. These developments are occurring outside the scope of the current deployment of the site, and involve complex database restructuring from ground up. When complete, the new version will be a comprehensive scripture and gospel study tool with unparalleled versatility, ease of use, depth of detail, and breadth of content.

We welcome all visitors, new and old, and invite you to leave comments and participate in the discussions, hoping that this blog will serve as an effective resource, forum, and sounding board for those studying the Book of Mormon.
