Daniel O. McClellan- Barack Obama and Reinhold Niebuhr February 6, 2010This CNN article discusses President Obama’s comments about Niebuhr as his favorite philosopher. I think it’s an interesting article and it’s nice to bring a little more attention to 20th century theologians (and I also like Niebuhr). I think many of Obama’s speeches manifest the meditation and self-awareness of an experienced leader, and I like [...] […]Daniel O. McClellan

Daniel Peterson: “The Temple as a Place of Ascent to God”
I just read on MormonConferences.org that Professor Daniel Peterson will be giving a presentation entitled “The Temple as a Place of Ascent to God” on Sunday, July 12. The location will be 4517 W. Mille Lacs Drive, South Jordan, Utah 84095 (the Daybreak Stake Center near the new Oquirrh Mountain Temple) . For those of you in Utah, you won’t want to miss this!
Unfortunately, I will not be able to be in attendance, but I would love to hear about what Dr. Peterson has to say. If anyone is going to be there and taking notes, please let me know!
Update: I just read that Bryce Haymond, of www.TempleStudy.com, will be there taking notes. I highly recommend checking out Bryce’s site soon after the event is supposed to take place, as I’m sure he’ll have some great notes!
