[00:00:15] Speaker A: Welcome to the weekly deep dive podcast on the add on Education network. The podcast where we take a look at the weekly come follow me discussions and try to add a little insight and unique perspective. I am your host, Jason Lloyd, here in the studio with our friend and this show’s producer, Nate Pyfer.
[00:00:32] Speaker B: You mean your studio?
[00:00:34] Speaker A: You know what? Not even remote virtual studio in presence studios.
[00:00:38] Speaker B: All right. We’re in studios. I like it.
[00:00:42] Speaker A: How you doing, Nate?
[00:00:43] Speaker B: Well, I can see you this week, so that’s also, that’s already a huge bonus.
[00:00:49] Speaker A: It makes a big difference. You can kind of like, see the body language and kind of know when someone wants to jump in or not and just kind of run with it. The quality of the show has already gone up. We haven’t even started.
[00:01:00] Speaker B: Yes. Thank you for your patience. We have had a, we’ve kind of had to figure this out a little bit over the past couple weeks, but I think we’ve, I think we’ve locked into something that’s going to work.
[00:01:10] Speaker A: I think so, yeah. Thanks, guys. We are dedicated to kicking the show out every week and keeping this content rolling. So thanks for paying, being a little patient with us.
I’m excited.
[00:01:20] Speaker B: Okay, let’s. I think. I think this, for this week, going to. Correct me if I’m wrong, Jason, we’re just going to hit a couple points from the week, from the episode we would have done last week, which we just didn’t have the connection to do highlights of that, and then basically just kind of the meat and potatoes of this week’s without too much fluff as well.
[00:01:41] Speaker A: Correct, correct. So that’s going to run us into Alma the younger’s conversion, the experience that he had with the angels. Really? Yeah. We’re merging two lessons into one for you guys. Try to get caught up on pace here. And then we’re also going to get into, I don’t know, I think it’s one of the most powerful chapters in the book of Mormon, Alma five, you know, and it’s a good one. Yeah.
Have you ever sung the song of Redeeming Love? I love the way he describes that. And the potent question of if so, can you now? Right? So we get some great opportunities to dive into some good scriptures. So that being said, I’m just going to dive right into it.
[00:02:23] Speaker B: Can’t wait.
[00:02:25] Speaker A: First off, we’ve just transitioned from an era in the book of Mormon of kings into an era of chief judges. And boy, correct me, did we talk about this last week? Maybe it’s an unfair question to ask you, Nate, remind me, it’s interesting to me how complementary the Book of Mormon is to the Bible.
[00:02:50] Speaker B: Yeah, we did talk a little bit about this.
[00:02:53] Speaker A: Perfect. When we go from kings to chief judges here, in contrast to in the Bible, them going from judges to kings, and the transition here in the Book of Mormon, this, to me, is just one more small, subtle detail. And what’s the best way to put thi...
