S2 E44 (Nov. 16-22) “That Evil May Be Done Away”

-


Do you hear that? It's the sound of waves crashing, wind blowing....and mixtapes playing! That's right, it's a mixtape episode! Since we're traveling with the Jaredites to the promised land, I thought it was appropriate that we listen to some inspirational tunes about water. 

Songs featured in this mixtape:

Into The Sea (It's Gonna Be Ok) by Tasha Layton
Oceans (Where Feet May Fail) Lyric Video by Hillsong UNITED
Wade in the Water by The Petersens
Master the Tempest Is Raging by Ruben Alves
Walking on Water by NEEDTOBREATHE

    So, I listen to all of the Come Follow Me podcasts that I can find on Apple Podcasts. In order to get through them all I listen to everything on 2X speed. When I realized this week was a mixtape I had to reduce the speed so I pushed it down in my list and on Thursday it had made its way to the top of the list. Well, Thursday was not a great day for me and I was feeling really down and your podcast came on and God spoke to me through the song on your podcast "It's gonna be okay." Thank you so much for following the spirit and putting together this podcast with exactly what I needed to hear in that moment.

      Oh, I'm so glad it helped you! That song helped me out through several difficult times this year and I'm so grateful our Heavenly Father has given us the gift of music to help us through those hard times. I hope you are doing better now!

Portrait of Rebekah

  I love Rebekah. I love her diligence and her closeness to the Lord. I love that when she had a problem, she knew exactly where to go- to the Lord. Her story is fairly simple. There's not a lot of extra historical text to add in, so I didn't feel like I had quite enough information for an episode. I did want to create a portrait of her though, so here it is! I'll be back next month with an episode about Rachel and Leah (and maybe I'll squeeze a little Rebekah in too). If you want some fun reading while you're waiting, check out the book Rebekah by Orson Scott Card! Click here to download to download a PDF of the artwork.

This week we talk about the law of opposition, Adam and Eve in the Garden, Nephi's a poet, and the curse of the Lamanites. The Come Follow Me print manual is different from the online version of the manual for the section 2 Nephi 5:20-21 "What was the curse that came upon the Lamanites". I recommend that you read the online version as the most up to date commentary on this section.

S2 E30 (Aug 3-9) “Stand Fast in the Faith of Christ”

This week we dive into the "War Chapters" of the Book of Mormon. I wanted to do a scholarly reading and go into the different characters, the battles, the tactics, the strategies...but life had other plans.  This has been a difficult week anxiety-wise as I start to look at going back to school in the middle of a pandemic hotspot. It has made focusing and really "studying" my scriptures difficult. However I found that "feasting on the words of Christ" sometimes means not studying the culture, the word usage, and all the other scholarly information on the text we're reading, but instead it means taking the scriptures that mean something to you and etching them on your heart. Clinging to them in the middle of the war you're fighting. Using them as your umbrella in the storm. So that's what I did this week. I learned several lessons from Captain Moroni, but I distilled the concepts I'm focusing on into 3 P's. I will be: Prayerful, Peaceful
