I promise the tone of this episode gets back to what you're used to, but I start by inviting you to think about scripture and prayer in a new, possibly uncomfortable, way: a time-tested Christian tradition foreign to Latter-day Saints called Lectio Divina.
I guide you though a Lectio prayer based on 1 Nephi 10, and then discuss the historical context for the Book of Mormon, insights on Lehi's dream, and the give and take of religious centralization both ancient and modern.
