Episode #85: The Deseret Alphabet W/Joshua Erickson

It’s not enough just to show up on Sunday throw a couple of bucks in the collection plate, listen to a sermon, and shake some hands. Mormonism is a community, almost a counterculture with its own language, culture, and practices. Sometimes I think we forget that it was designed that way by the Lord. We see this most often in our early history. That was never more evident than when the early pioneers of the Church tried to do something truly radical in creating a new alphabet. This week I have Joshua Erickson back on the podcast to cover the Deseret Alphabet. We cover its history, its purpose, and ultimately its demise which I think carries with it a warning for us  today as Mormons. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dave-kirkenbower/support
