Thanks for putting this up, Ben. Looks like a pretty decent line-up.
Comment by Christopher — February 17, 2010 @ 9:43 am
Looks great. Thanks for posting.
Comment by Hunter — February 17, 2010 @ 10:27 am
Much of this looks good. But am I the only one who notices a few of these topics that are a bit hoary? I find those surprising.
Comment by SC Taysom — February 17, 2010 @ 11:30 am
No, SC, you’re not the only one, just the first to say it out loud [grin].
Comment by Jared T — February 17, 2010 @ 11:39 am
I was reluctant to say anything lest I be accused of being a grumpy old man. I mean, I am one of those, but I’m glad this isn’t an indication of that fact.
Comment by SC Taysom — February 17, 2010 @ 11:53 am
Ha, I’m glad you hedged, I was gonna say, “Indeed, that is the case, but…” 🙂
But that having been said, there indeed are some solid presenters and some interesting topics.
Comment by Jared T — February 17, 2010 @ 12:18 pm
Wow, that’s a lot of concurrent sessions to be running against each other. Too bad they couldn’t have spread it out over two days and given attendees some easier choices.
If anyone happens to attend the Mike Hicks session on hymnals, I hope they’ll post their notes; that one looks particularly interesting to me.
Comment by Kevin Barney — February 17, 2010 @ 1:02 pm
Kevin, Mike is (as I am sure you know) very friendly. If you email him he would probably tell you everything you wanted to know.
One of the major points of the lecture is about how before our current version of the hymnal there was one made that got rejected by the brethren, after years of effort in making it.

Blogs Away!
Bushman’s was great. Haven’t put it together for a post yet, though. Welch’s was easy enough to put together and post already. Staker’s is revising earlier views of the development of the priesthood by examining emergence of first presidency, etc. I am not live blogging this one, but if my recording turns out ok I might put together an outline with his key sources and arguments.

I’ll have notes from bushman and I’m in the Joseph Merrill and Tanner sessions.
