  1. "In like manner, what will your seeking open for you? What wisdom do you lack? What do you feel an urgent need to know or understand? Follow the example of the Prophet Joseph. 1. Find a quiet place where you can regularly go. 2. Humble yourself before God. 3. Pour out your heart to your Heavenly Father. 4. Turn to Him for answers and for comfort. 5. Pray in the name of Jesus Christ about your concerns, your fears, your weaknesses—yes, the very longings of your heart. 6. And then listen! Write the thoughts that come to your mind. Record your feelings and follow through with actions that you are prompted to take. As you repeat this process day after day, month after month, year after year, you will “grow into the principle of revelation.” -President Russell M. Nelson, "Revelation for the Church, Revelation for Our Lives", April 2018 General Conference.
  2. Where else might they need one more then?
  3. I already turned off my emergency alert setting on my phone.
  4. Lehi in the Desert is pretty easy to follow and Approaching Zion is his masterwork.
  5. There seem to be a lot of "apparently" and "maybe" comments around this story. I have seen nothing official come out on what Tim was supposedly involved in and whether it is true or not. I will wait for the truth to come out before passing judgement. It is interesting that this all came out when rumors began to circulate that Tim was considering a Senate run?
  6. I was recently reading about Lehi's dream and Jacob Chapter 5 and had the thought that the fruit of the tree of life is a White Olive. Just based on the symbolic meaning of the olive in scripture. https://rsc.byu.edu/vol-1-no-1-2000/autumn-olives-atonement
  7. It took me until the middle of the second season to figure out what was going on.
  8. I love the first presidency under President Joseph F. Smith. They dove deeply into the doctrines of Christ. I wish we had the patience for this kind of letters from the First Presidency. Maybe someday, but we have become intellectually lazy in this world of constant distraction. Reminds me of this scene from Mr. Robot where his "dad" tells him this. LANGUAGE WARNING:
  9. "Ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor, saith the Lord God of Hosts." 2 Nephi 13:14 Rich Men North of Richmond
  10. I watched the entire thing and although I do not agree with everything he says, I felt he made some valid points.
  11. Just because the writers of the chapter headings think they are Nephites is not proof. There were many lamanites that were survivors of the destruction at Christs death.
  12. I have these and I think I might take a look finally.
  13. We don't know that the Three Disciples were Nephites.
  14. I'm ready for my hover car and plasma rifle. Can we finally get into the future already?
  15. I have these, I just haven't started them, but I just found the Audiobooks at the library sight so I may just listen to them.
