Episode 24: Alma 8-16 - Why We Fail

Ever wonder why, when you feel like you are doing all the right things in all the right ways, that you fail?

In this episode, we study to see that sometimes our failures are really just the seed for God's greater success.

Listen in to what Alma teaches people who are ready to hear the best he has to teach.
