Crandall Museum

The Crandall Museum was a very cool experience for me. I went a few years ago, but I didn't remember much from that visit. It was amazing to see a replica of the Gutenberg press, and understand everything that Gutenberg went through in order to make a printing press that truly worked, and served as the guide for all printing presses for hundreds of years. Truly, he must have been inspired by God to be able to come up with all of the designs of the press, what metals to be used to make the perfect alloy for the type, what inks to use, etc. It was interesting to me to see how he started his presses in secret because he was scared of what would be done with him for creating something new. Yet, before he knew it he was making copies of the Bible for the Catholic Church.
The other aspect of the Museum that I found fascinating was of the printing of the Book of Mormon. I thought it was really cool how much of a miracle it was that there were even resources in Palmyra to allow for the printing of the Book of Mormon. The mentioned there too, how quickly they would have had to print the pages to the Book of Mormon to make the 5,000 copies in time, and just how much strength that would have taken. Just the printing and binding aspects of the Book of Mormon are miracles. It truly was set up and made possible by God. It is an evidence to me that if we put our faith in the Lord, anything can happen. We just need to do our best and leave the rest to Him.
