Sorry guys, this episode is a little heavier than normal. I'm just struggling right now, but this week's reading assignment really helped me and I hope it helps you too. Especially Jeffrey R. Holland's talk "An High Priest of Good Things To Come", which is my favorite conference talk EVER. Ever. For real. We talk about that, about drawing near to the Lord in faith, the Melchizedek Priesthood, The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), and you get to hear the song "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Hillsong United.

The Moses story can be found here:

Exodus 17: 9-13

9 And Moses said unto aJoshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the brod of God in mine hand.

10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

11 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.

12 But Moses’ hands awere heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur bstayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.

13 And Joshua adiscomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
