  • Archaeological Evidence that Third Nephi Chapter Eight is Genuine History
    2025/05/09
    In this Religion Today episode, host Martin Tanner outlines the archaeological evidence that 3 Nephi 8 is genuine history which happened in present day Guatemala. The volcanic activity described in 3 Nephi 8 has never happened in the United States anywhere east of western Texas, making a North-American setting for Book of Mormon event in North America impossible. However, volcanic activity in the first century AD, as described in 3 Nephi 8, did happen in and around present day Guatemala, including a number of cities that were destroyed in earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and hurricanes, including recent archeology that demonstrates a first century city, as described in 3 Nephi 8, sunk into the "sea" a very short time, perhaps in just an hour or two.

  • Easter, Celebration of the Gift of the Atonement and Resurrection of Jesus
    2025/04/18
    In this episode of Religion Today, host Martin Tanner describes the meaning of the atonement, as reconciliation between God and Man, and how it works, as the point in time when Jesus acquired a complete, perfect understanding of the entire life of each person, and then took upon himself our sins, because of his love for each of us. Martin also describes the meaning of the resurrection, as a complete restoration of our physical body, exactly as it was when we died, from which point we grow to physical perfection, perhaps over years, during which period of time, parents will have the opportunity to raise their children who died before becoming an adult. Martin explains how we each have unique DNA, which is a complete blueprint of our physical body. Thus, no matter how obliterated one's physical body has become, DNA makes resurrection for all assured.
