Episode 19 (May 13-19) "What Lack I Yet?"

Listen to Episode 19 (May 13-19) "What Lack I Yet?" here.

Y'all. I know this is the LONGEST EPISODE EVER. I'm sorry! But I think it's got some REALLY good stuff in it. So maybe it's worth it? Maybe? Anyways, you've got the story of the rich young man, the parable of the vineyard, and you get to hangout with me and my friend Kansas on our GNO as we talk about marriage.

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.

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 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
