Gospel Topics Essay Series "Introduction to the Gospel Topics Essays" with the Backyard Professor

On a special collaborative series, Mormonish cohosts Rebecca and Landon team up the one and only Backyard Professor, Kerry Shirts for a deep dive into the LDS church’s Gospel Topics Essays! Using the book, “The LDS Gospel Topics Series: A Scholarly Engagement,” by Matthew L Harris and Newell G Bringhurst, we plan to explore each Gospel Topics Essay thoroughly and completely! So look for more episodes in this special Mormonish/BYP mega collaboration!! This episode covers the Introduction to the essays and delves into why they were written in the first place, how they were released, and what the reaction has been.
