About Keith A. Erekson

BYU-Idaho is excited to welcome Keith Erekson, Director of Historical Research and Outreach for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as the Spring 2026 University Forum speaker.

Brother Erekson spoke on how our present Information Age brings exciting advances in communication and efficiency, as well as unprecedented opportunities for manipulation and false teachings. He discussed how we can protect ourselves against deception, and how the teachings of Jesus Christ, as amplified by His modern messengers and illustrated by recent history, provide patterns of thinking to help us keep our covenants and endure in faith.
