Listen in to this week's episode, part 2 of our study of the missionary chapters in Alma.

Ever wonder why, when you feel like you are doing all the right things in all the right ways, that you fail? You pray, you fast, you obey, and you feel like you're responding to promptings, but God doesn't grant you the success you'd hoped? In this episode, we study to see that sometimes our failures are really just the seed for God's greater success.

You can gauge the health of your physical heart by checking your pulse, but what about your spiritual heart? Is there a way to assess the strength of your testimony, your conversion, or your relationship with God? In this episode Alma plays the role of spiritual physician and asks some hard, heart-hitting questions the form, for us, a sort of spiritual cardiogram. How are you doing?
