"First Light" is our reoccurring feature that highlights speculative writing by early Latter-day Saints. Nephi Anderson uses the same kind of casual accidental time travel that you may have read in "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" to encourage gratitude.

In an age where so much content is divided between being either YA or pornographic, Star Wars: Andor was a breath of fresh air. Alan Hurst writes about how Andor manages to be mature without being nihilistic. #latterdaysaints #starwars #andor

We love the vibes of this week's poem from JS Absher. He really captures how trapped we can be in our experiences and our reactions to them. #poetry #latterdaysaints
