April 2011 No. 8 Dean’s Message Chapter Officers A little over a year ago, I was struck with the impression that I would soon be serving as the Dean Florence Hawkinson dean of our AGO chapter. To help this thought settle within me, I started asking myself [email protected] what I would want to have happen within our chapter. W hat was important to me? W hat was important to our chapter members? W hat was important to the organization? A few Sub-Dean things came to my mind immediately. Some other ideas have come “in process of time.” Ruth Eldredge [email protected] One thing that was clear to me from the beginning was that I definitely wanted to continue Registrar two of my favorite annual chapter traditions: the Member Bach Recital and the Super David Chamberlin Saturday Organ Training W orkshop. I am very pleased with the way our chapter has [email protected] responded to these events this year. Secretary th Miranda Wilcox Our Member Bach Recital, held March 25 , was a tremendous success.

  • A Conversation with Larry C. Porter 113
    112 Mormon Historical Studies Larry C. Porter, 1998. Photograph courtesy of Mark Philbrick, Brigham Young University. Walker: A Conversation with Larry C. Porter 113 The Gentleman Historian: A Conversation with Larry C. Porter Interview by Kyle R. Walker In the spring of 1999, in the midst of my doctoral studies at Brigham Young University, I was teaching in the Department of Church History and Doctrine and beginning to research in the field of Mormon history. It was at this time when I first sought out and met a seasoned historian who was nearing the end of his tenure at BYU. Though it was above and beyond his job description, Professor Larry C. Porter readily agreed to be a part of my dissertation committee, as well as mentor me through a graduate minor in Church History and Doctrine. While I had never taken a class from him, and he certainly was not familiar with me, Larry made every accommodation to ensure that I was provided with accurate research and solid documentation for my dissertation project. As I would occasionally stop by his office, Larry would literally drop everything in order to attend to my research interests. Often times we would go down to the copy machine to photocopy some source that would strengthen my research. Despite his demanding schedule, he often brought to our com- mittee meetings a source or two that he knew I would be interested in, without my having asked for such material. The more I spent time with Larry, the more I became impressed with his modesty and his willingness to sacrifice his valuable time for others.

  • Near-Death Experiences and Early Mormon Thought
    Thought Communication, Speed of Movement, and the Spirit's Ability to Absorb Knowledge: Near-Death Experiences and Early Mormon Thought Brent L. Top, Ph.D. Brigham Young University ABSTRACT- Three of Charles Flynn's (1986) "core elements" of near-death experiences (NDEs) have special interest to members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) because of their striking similarity to the doctrinal teachings of 19th-century Mormon leaders and theologians. This article illustrates these three NDE characteristics-thought communi cation, speed of movement, and the ability to "absorb" knowledge-by com paring contemporary NDE accounts with both the religious teachings of 19th-century Mormon church leaders and the accepted doctrines of modern Mormonism. Virtually all of the recent studies of near-death experiences (NDEs) have included accounts of those who have "died" discovering en hanced abilities, far beyond earthly abilities, in the areas of commu nication, travel and movement, and the acquisition of knowledge. These three different aspects of the near-death experience, included in Charles Flynn's (1986) list of "core elements" of the NDE, have special interest to Mormons. There are striking similarities between the modern descriptions by NDErs concerning thought communica tion, the speed of their movements, and their ability to absorb knowl edge, and the theological teachings of early Mormon leaders in the Brent L.

  • The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints/Mormon Children’S Music: Its History, Transmission, and Place in Children’S Cognitive Development
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS/MORMON CHILDREN’S MUSIC: ITS HISTORY, TRANSMISSION, AND PLACE IN CHILDREN’S COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT Colleen Jillian Karnas-Haines, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005. Dissertation Directed by: Professor Robert C. Provine Division of Musicology and Ethnomusicology School of Music The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has a children’s auxiliary program for ages three to eleven that meets weekly before or after their Sunday worship service. This auxiliary, called Primary, devotes much of its time to singing. Music is not a childish diversion, but an essential activity in the children’s religious education. This study examines the history of the songbooks published for Primary use, revealing the many religious and cultural factors that influence the compilations. The study then looks at the modern methods of transmission as the author observes the music education aspects of Primary. Lastly, the study investigates the children’s use of and beliefs about Primary music through the lens of cognitive development. The study reveals that Primary music is an ever-evolving reflection of the theology, cultural trends, and practical needs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Unaware of such implications, the children use Primary music to express their religious musicality at cognitive developmentally appropriate levels. THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS/MORMON CHILDREN’S MUSIC: ITS HISTORY, TRANSMISSION, AND PLACE IN CHILDREN’S COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT By Colleen Jillian Karnas-Haines Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2005 Advisory Committee: Professor Robert C.
