Sections 67-70 - Abundance

"Abundance" is certainly a buzz word in common parlance today, but the idea of abundance, divine abundance, originates from God. This week we study dive into a study of that divine abundance, how it works, and what we can do to qualify ourselves and others for it.

Sections 64-66 - Kingdom

When the Prophet dictated the prophetic plea that the "kingdom of God go forth, that the kingdom of heaven may come" it was revealed, not just a future event, but a present one as well. We can and should belong to and benefit from the kingdom of God on earth, now. In this episode we discover how, invest in our relationships with others, and are challenged to extend forgiveness.

Section 63 - Faithful

"For better or worse, in sickness and health..." do those words describe your commitment to the Lord? This week we study, not just faith, but faithfulness and as we discover a fresh perspective, invest our mind and heart, and connect to God.

Sections 60-62 - Matters

Do you like spinning plates? No, neither do we. In this episode we study the things that don't matter to the Lord and, by implication, the things that do matter to Him. As we learn together you might ask yourself the question, "What matters to the Lord in my life right now?"

Sections 58-59 - Foundation

"Welcome to Zion" said no sign nor person when the early Saints entered Missouri. Instead, they found only a few homes and stores, a somewhat irreligious society, and a situation that prompted at least some degree of disappointment. Finding Zion turned out to be the easy part: building Zion that hard. So too it is with us: knowing what we want our lives to look like--what kind of "Zion" we want--is simple; building that Zion takes work and effort. In this episode we study some of the not-so-easy/not-so-pretty side of growth and change to help us conscientiously roll up our figurative sleeves and go to work.

Sections 51-57 - Inheritance

Where is Zion? This is the question that drove early members of the Church to seek for revelation in 1831, that motivated them to continue their sojourn across the country, and catalyzed their conversion to and application of restored truths. It is also a question that can similarly motivate us. In this episode we look at lessons learned about Zion before we get to Zion. What do we need to know, feel, do, or become before we can fully inherit the promised land?

Sections 49-50 - Discern

Joseph Smith once wrote that all of us "must have the discerning of spirits" if we are to avoid deception and progress in the Kingdom of God. As we seek to follow President Nelson's challenge to "grow into the spirit of revelation", being able to discern the voice of the Spirit is important and difficult. In this episode we study key revelations given to early Church members on they way to both improving our ability to discern as well as solidifying our own certainty of what really is "of God" and what is not.

Sections 46-48 - Gifts

Perhaps the most-asked question in the whole Church is, "How do I recognize when the Spirit is speaking to me?" Early members of the Church had the same question and, as we study sections 46-48 this week, wee study the Lord's revelation of true spiritual manifestations or "gifts" He gives to indicate when the Spirit is present. Ask yourself: what "gifts" have I seen or received that evidence God's presence?
