I feel the same about John Dehlin. While I love hearing the stories, I feel like he has some weird agenda instead of letting these people tell their stories.

I was able to download a PDF version of "Added Upon" by Nephi Anderson. Will have to read it. Thank you, Google and Bro. Peterson.

I am glad John Dehlin was NOT conducting this interview. I always feel like that guy is part of some ponzi scheme.

Dan Peterson has a great sense of humor. When dealing with Steve Benson, one has to have a great sense of humor.
