Description

Thoughts on 1 Nephi chapters 11-15, the "Come Follow Me" reading for 20 - 26 JAN 2020. 

This week we look at Nephi's vision, how it ties together the Old Testament, New Testament, and Book of Mormon, and presents a context for us to understand the Lord's work through the last 2400 years and toward the future return of Jesus Christ. There is a TON in this week, so the episode went longer than usual. I don't anticipate that they will all be this long, there was just a lot to talk about this time. Enjoy!
