Volume 51, No. 4
Winter 2018
Fiona Givens beautifully begins the issue with musings "On Solace," which is companionly followed by Terryl Givens' article "Heretics in Truth: Love, Faith and Hope as the Foundation for Theology, Community, and Destiny." Blair Ostler's Personal Voices takes a personal, philosophical view on "Heavenly Mother: The Mother of All Women." And Mette Harrison takes seriously a LDS view of the "Resurrection" in a fiction piece about a young person who wants to be perfected in the body that is truly theirs. And so much, much more.
