Right. The first one (2008) was the brainchild of Keepa’ninny Allen M.; I’ve done them every conference since, with one exception. (MADB isn’t exactly my playground, anyway.)

Nevermind…I used search and I guess you’ve been doing this for a while.

Out of curiosity, was this post inspired by this?

14 — David M. McConkie, “Gospel Learning and Teaching” — Thanks, Marjorie, now we can all sleep. (Or was I the only one worried that this would flop because some of the puzzles were just too hard?)

In any case, y’all did it! The final list follows — and let’s meet here next April for another set.

1. Henry B. Eyring, “Serve with the Spirit”
2. Gerrit W. Gong, “Temple Mirrors of Eternity”
3. Dallin H. Oaks, “Two Lines of Communication”
4. Jeffrey R. Holland, “Because of Your Faith”
5. Mary N. Cook, “Be an Example of the Believers”
6. Richard C. Edgely, “Faith – the Choice is Yours”
7. Claudio R.M. Costa, “Obedience to the Prophets” (Spanish)
8. Julie B. Beck, “Daughters in My Kingdom”
9. Juan Uceda, “He Teaches Us to Put Off the Natural Man”
10. D. Todd Chrisofferson, “Reflections on a Consecrated Life”
11. “More Holiness Give Me”
12. Henry B. Eyring, “Trust in God, Then Go and Do”
13. Thomas S. Monson, “Charity Never Faileth”
14. David M. McConkie, “Gospel Learning and Teaching” (Spanish)

I don’t know his full name and I’m too lazy to go look it up but is is McConkie of the SS pres. I immediately recognized it because it was my “least favorite talk”. I don’t think I have ever had one of those at conference before. Maybe I can get half a point even though I didn’t follow all the rules.

We've got dueling candidates for #17, with hymns that have similar vocabulary. But the text that I actually ran through Wordle.net to generate the graphic here was ... "Let Zion in Her Beauty Rise" Hat tip to DTR who also came up with that title in a private note. Last one: The Spanish language puzzle in 14. Here's the same talk, but in English this time:

#17, “Jehovah, Lord of Heaven and Earth” p 269

I can’t resist hymn puzzles…I think #17 is Hymn 41, “Let Zion in Her Beauty Rise” (it was Enoch that did it!) One of my favourite hymn tunes, too, with some wonderful lyrics.
