Hello and welcome to the scriptures a real podcast.

This is the podcast where we talk about elements of the scriptures that help them be more real to us so we can draw more power out of them because we need all the help we can get.

I'm your host, Kerry Mielstein, and I'm so glad to have with me a returning guest and wonderful friend and scholar and teacher.

This is Dr. Robert Millett.

Thank you for being with us.

Excited to be with you, Carrie.

I'm very glad that you would make the time.

Just so our audience knows, Brother Millett, is very busy on his mission. He is serving a mission teaching institute at Southern Virginia University and has been there, I think, a year and a half now. Is that right? Yeah, we only have about six more months.

Wow. But it has blessed lots of students' lives. I've heard from some of these students and their parents and has been blessing a lot of people. We've introduced Brother Millett before,

so we won't spend a lot of time introducing him here. We just encourage you to go back

and listen to those other episodes, but I'll just kind of touch on some highlights.

He taught seminary and institute for a long time, then came to, well, I guess I don't actually know how long, but for a while, and then came to BYU, and taught in the ancient scripture department, eventually becoming the department chair, and then the dean of religious education and

did lots of religious outreach and wrote I think 7,212 books and it's 13.

All right, that's I was close.

Okay, that's still a ridiculous number.

That's it is.

It's true, truly like that, no, I don't know anyone that even aspires to that.

So not that they don't want to.

They just know, wow, that's a lot.

And I have been blessed by those books and by articles and have been uplifted and edified,

as have many of in our audience, I'm sure.

So anything else?
