Episode 49: Moroni 7 - Lay Hold of Every Good Thing

Life is filled with choices. Period. We must constantly choose between, not just good an evil, but often between good and good! Moroni, knowing this about our day, inserts in chapter 7 a sermon from his father all about judging between choices and learning how to "lay hold of every good thing." Study with us this week and learn for yourself!

Episode 48: Moroni 1-9 part 1 - I Will Not Deny the Christ

In a world that's as bleak and depressing as has ever been recorded in scripture Moroni must, and does, stand strong and hold to his faith. When we're called upon to do something difficult, maybe in the face of opposition and hopelessness, can we stand with Moroni and proclaim, "I will not deny the Christ"? In this episode we study how to do just that!

Episode 47: Ether 6-15 - Anchor to the Soul

The story of the Jaredites is one of mostly misery and destruction; however, against that black, satin cloth is set one of the most amazing diamonds in the Book of Mormon: Moroni's discourse on faith and hope in chapter 12. This week with special guest Garret Shields we study the diamond and learn how to anchor our souls when on life's turbulent seas.

Episode 46: Ether 1-5 - Cry Unto the Lord

Remember the Bible story about the Tower of Babel and the confusing of the languages? In this episode we study the story of the brother of Jared to better understand what confounds and, more importantly, what unconfounds our communication with God. If you want to know how to talk to and hear from God better, listen in and study along!

Episode 45: Mormon 8-9 - God of Miracles

"I even remain alone to write the sad tale of the destruction of my people," says Moroni, the last Nephite prophet. With such a depressing task, and with pressures in our own lives that may feel daunting and depressing, what miracles does Moroni see that lift his soul and sustain his faith? Come, meet the God of miracles!

Episode 44: Mormon 1-7 - The Man Behind the Book

Everything we've read in the Book of Mormon this year has come through his hand, yet we haven't really met him yet. This episode, we meet Mormon, the man behind the book, and learn how to be a disciple of Christ even in the worst of times.

Episode 43: 4 Nephi 1 - The Four Minute Mile

It didn't look like Roger Banister was on track to break the four-minute mile barrier, but he did. It looked like the Nephites were on track for continual righteousness, and they fell. What can we learn from the rise and fall of the Nephites about finishing out our own races and building a happy people/family/class/group?

Episode 42: 3 Ne 26-30 - What Do You Want?

If you were to be granted one wish, what would you choose? What if it were Jesus himself granting your desire? And what if that greatest desire you had was to be able to minister to your "people" (family, friends, neighbors, etc.) In this episode we study how to minister better!
