The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints corner


Recommended Posts

I love the Chosen. People complain about how it's not accurate and stuff, but it was kind of good to do that for a series instead of religious text. And they acknowledge not all of it may be accurate. I also love how they portray characters in a relatable way. Especially Jesus. They make him seem more than human, yet human.

I've only seen some of the first season but its pretty good.

I am of the opinion that the books are better.
But that's me.

 

ALSO!!

MY BISHOP IS CURRENTLY READING WoK!

As his first Sanderson book!

 

Him: Have you read any books lately?

Me: Yeah, [talks about books I've read]

Him: I'm reading my first Brandon...[I freak out, is it Sanderson or Mull?] Sanderson book.

Me: ...What is it?

Him: Way of Kings.

Me[inwardly screaming in joy]: That's my favorite.

Him: Well, by reading I mean listening. (A true Alethi man!) It's long. I'm 28 hours in, out of 45.

Me: Kaladin is my favorite character. Like, ever.

Him: The guy seems like he just keeps getting beaten down.

Me: Yeah... that continues.

Him: *laughs*

Careful.  This is what put my sister off Stormlight, seeing Kaladin get beaten down too much.  To convince her to keep reading I told her the exact opposite: that his situation does improve over time, that his story is ultimately a hopeful one rather than a bleak, ugly one, and that the point of all the darkness he has to slog through is for contrast, to give his light something to shine in.
