Peter faced an impossible task: He knew the early Christian church was about to come under intense persecution and he knew he wouldn't be there to lead them through it. What wisdom could he impart? The answer is 1 and 2 Peter! This week I talk (a little) about the history of 1 & 2 Peter, how the gospel is preached to the dead (from 1 Peter 3:18–20; 4:6 and Doctrine and Covenants 138), and I interview Hayley to learn more about trials and joy! A big THANK YOU to Hayley for her interview!



In the interview with Hayley I mention two conference talks. One is about The Immediate Goodness of God By Elder Kyle S. McKay from the April 2019 General Conference, and the other I was a bit more fuzzy on. I said there was a quote in it with something about "what are you willing to give up in this life for the next life". The actual quote is: "Do we have the faith “not [to] be healed” from our earthly afflictions so we might be healed eternally?" from Has The Days of Miracles Ceased by Elder Donald L. Hallstrom.


I quote a lot from the New Testament Seminary Teacher manual in this week's assignment.  Find it here: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/new-testament-seminary-teacher-manual/introduction-to-the-first-epistle-general-of-peter?lang=eng

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.

Listen to Episode 5, Part B here. I loved Episode 5 SO MUCH, but I just couldn't go on without talking about John the Baptist, Jesus' Baptism, the Pharisees, and Vipers.  So here it is- a rushed rundown of Christ's baptism and an outtake from the original Episode 5 wherein I describe the various sects of Ancient Israel and fun with snakes. (Photo "Joy" from Reflections of Christ https://reflectionsofchrist.myshopify.com/ ) John the Baptist, Bible Dictionary: Son of Zacharias and Elisabeth, being of priestly descent through both parents. This lineage was essential, since John was the embodiment of the law of Moses, designed to prepare the way for the Messiah and make ready a people to receive Him. He was the outstanding bearer of the Aaronic Priesthood in all history and was entrusted with its most noble mission.
