Section 88 - Peace

How can I foster peace in my home/ward/community/class/etc.? This question, universally appealing, is at the heart of our study this week. In the midst conflict within the leadership of the early Restored Church, the prophet Joseph Smith received what he deemed an "olive leaf" crammed with principles of peace applicable to all. Study with us this week as we discover peace, invest our personal situations into that study, and connect to God's truth with a practical approach to acquiring light and truth.

Sections 85-87 - Divided

Division and divisiveness seem to be quite in vogue in recent years, a problem which the Lord certainly foresaw. In Doctrine & Covenants 85-87 early Church members were dealing with multiple kinds of division: religious, spiritual, and political. Join us in this episode as we study those different divisions and seek for what we can do about it.

Sections 81-83 - Bound

The word "covenant" is one of the more oft-used words in the Church. However, in our traditional attempts to scribe it we may diminish the power of the principle and, thus, diminish our own ability to be more powerfully connected to God. In this episode we discover an expanded definition of covenants and ponder how we can better covenant with God and others.
