Humans of OBU

“So I heard you could go on the Mormon.com website and ask for Mormons to be sent to your house and explain the Book of Mormons, etc. They end up giving you a copy of the book. I was talking to David and we thought it would be a great idea to send one to one of our professors. So naturally we entered in all of Dr. Duvall’s information on the website. Two months later, I had totally forgotten, Dr. Duvall brought it up in class and said, ‘So some Mormons came to my house today and gave me a Book of Mormon and tried to explain everything to me. And I asked them, ‘Why did you come here?’ They said, ‘We got information that you wanted to hear about us.’ Then Dr. Duvall found out it was me, but it all turned out okay.”
