Descriptions:
Trevan Hatch is the Bible, Religious Studies, and Middle East specialist in the Lee Library at Brigham Young University, and is also adjunct professor in the Department of Ancient Scripture. Trevan co-wrote “Greater Love Hath No Man”: A Latter-day Saint Guide to Celebrating the Easter Season with Eric Huntsman.
I wanted to speak to Trevan after the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ focus on improving our Easter celebrations and traditions as a faith.
Some highlights from this episode include how Trevan inspired his whole Stake to adopt his family’s Easter celebration, a rundown of each day in Holy Week, and Trevan’s reaction to President Dallin H Oaks’ Easter message on the Church’s social media pages.
