Sunday Sep 20, 2020
Sunday Sep 20, 2020
Why did Jesus give the crowd the sacrament for a second time? Why did He mix Isaiah and Micah? How can we feel like we belong? Find information about the chiasmus I talk about at https://knowhy.bookofmormoncentral.org/knowhy/why-did-jesus-mix-together-micah-and-isaiah
*Please note: I made a major "oopsy!" I kept saying He was mixing MALACHI and Isaiah. I should have said MICAH and Isaiah!
Song featured is: "There Was Jesus" by Zach Williams and Dolly Parton

Jesus Christ had a limited amount of time to spend with the Nephites. What were His priorities? What does that teach us about what our priorities should be? How did He teach them to minister? And what did they learn about prayer? We talk about all this and more!

This week it’s a faceoff between Matthew 5 and 3 Nephi 12! Well, not really. But we can learn some things by examining the differences between the various sermons and the versions of the Lord’s Prayer. Also, we learn that perfection is pending!
Find the KnowWhy from Book Of Mormon Central about the Sermon at the Temple here: https://knowhy.bookofmormoncentral.org/knowhy/why-did-jesus-deliver-a-version-of-the-sermon-on-the-mount-at-the-temple-in-bountiful

S2 E36 (Sept 14-20) “Arise and Come Forth unto Me”
Sunday Aug 30, 2020
Sunday Aug 30, 2020
Fires, tornadoes, and floods...OH MY! This week the Nephites experience the calamities that occurred on the Earth after Christ was crucified. After going through some of my own struggles, I realized that the destruction could be a good metaphor for some of the stuff we face in this life. And that made me think of ART! Specifically one of my favorite sculptors, Auguste Rodin and one of my favorite painters, Robyn from Art By Geek Girl! Rodin was unavailable (he died in 1917), but Robyn was willing to be an interviewee for this week's episode. We talk about the contrast between light and dark in art and in life and how Christ truly is the Light of the World.
You can find Robyn's artwork at https://www.artbygeekgirl.com/ , https://www.facebook.com/Artbygeekgirl/, or https://www.instagram.com/geekgirlph/
Also the painting she talks about in this episode (I Know That My Redeemer Lives) is the cover art for this episode!

S2 E35 (Sept 7-13) “Lift Up Your Head and Be of Good Cheer”
Sunday Aug 23, 2020
Sunday Aug 23, 2020
This is a super mini episode. This week was nuts, the kids returned (virtually) to school, and then...I got a migraine. So please give me a little grace this week, this episode is basically a short little testimony about the Savior.
Also migraines apparently take my ability to use punctuation, so this episode is a 5 minute run-on sentence. Sorry about that. Again, grace. Lots and lots of grace please!

S2 E34 (Aug 31-Sept 9) "Glad Tidings of Great Joy"
Sunday Aug 16, 2020
Sunday Aug 16, 2020
It’s Christmas time! In August! Well, I guess it’s not *really* Christmas time, that won’t happen for another 5 years. At least that’s what Samuel the Lamanite tells us. We talk about that, how I LOVE the way that Samuel teaches about repentance, and why having a specifically 5 year (and a 400 year) prophecy is interesting.
Book of Mormon Central articles:
Why Did Samuel Say the Wealth of Some Nephites Would Become “Slippery”? https://knowhy.bookofmormoncentral.org/knowhy/why-did-samuel-say-the-wealth-of-some-nephites-would-become-slippery
Why Did Samuel Make Such Chronologically Precise Prophecies? https://knowhy.bookofmormoncentral.org/knowhy/why-did-samuel-make-such-chronologically-precise-prophecies

S2 E33 (August 24-30) "Remember the Lord"
Saturday Aug 15, 2020

What kind of Prophet was Nephi? How does understanding Nephi's teachings as a Prophet help us appreciate our current Prophet, President Nelson? And is ponderizing even a word??? (My spell check says no.) But that doesn't mean ponderizing can't have a HUGE impact on our lives! We talk about all of this and more in this week’s episode.
If you would like to see my chart of Nephi & President Nelson's teachings, you can find it at https://tinyurl.com/NephiPresNelson

I got quote-y in this episode! I loved the scripture assignment from this week because I saw how much Helaman's society is reflected in our own modern day society. I thought it would be interesting to pair some modern day scripture (quotes from General Authorities) with some of the ancient scripture from this week's reading. Enjoy!
You can find all of the quotes I use at thesaviorsaid.blogspot.com
