This week's spotlight is Professor Joshua Matson! Professor Matson loves helping students see the scriptures in new and exciting ways. There is nothing better than seeing their reactions when they have a “I never saw this scripture in this way before” moment and connect that to a principle of the gospel that makes the scriptures more relevant. One of the greatest thrills in his research, whether with the Dead Sea Scrolls or Wilford Woodruff’s journals, is working with original manuscripts and documents. Seeing how scripture and revelation have been preserved in their original manner over time is what makes the scriptures a living legacy of faith. He tries to replicate this experience with his students each semester with original documents (like an 1830 Book of Mormon or old Bibles) in Special Collections. A fun fact about Professor Matson is that his bucket list centers on visits to cemeteries where apostles, prophets, and presidents are buried: Presidential Libraries and Museums and UNESCO World Heritage Sites!
