And the journals of Wilford Woodruff are huge aren't they to historians? They are probably the single best source that we have. And in fact, so the church actually has all of the digitized copies of his journals on the Church History Library. So you can go read them in the great detail.

So yes, I mean to say it's not much of a stretch to say that Wilford Woodruff's record keeping is also tied to this this command. Yeah, he heard that.

But there actually there's a press benchmark books that has just published all of Wilford Woodruff's journals with annotations and it's my. It's seven eight volumes.

David McCullough comes to BYU... He said, nobody ever lived in the past... And of course, McCullough wrote those amazing books, 1776.

Great book, The Power of Ritual, back in 2020.

The longer you perform a ritual, the more power it garners from the act, from the faith, from the feeling.
