The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E48 (Dec. 14-20) “Come unto Christ, and Be Perfected in Him”Awww, this is our last scripture reading assignment together! 😢 Waterworks ahead! This week we talk about Moroni's promise, how we can feel the Spirit answer the question "Is the Book of Mormon true?", and the work that Christ has for us to do.
Also I begin saying goodbye to all of my amazing listeners! We have one episode left, the Christmas episode.

The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E46 (Nov 30- Dec 6) “To Keep Them in the Right Way”This week Moroni teaches us about various priesthood ordinances. I talk about Gratitude, and how I've been thinking about the Greatness and Goodness of God (specifically the talk, "The Greatness and Goodness of God by Dale G. Renlund from the April 2020 General Conference) and how that popped up in the reading assignment this week.
Also, I announce the upcoming retirement (or hiatus???) of The Savior Said.

The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E45 (Nov. 23-29) “By Faith All Things Are Fulfilled”This week we get to talk about one of my FAVORITE stories of the Book of Mormon- Moroni's "weakness in writing". I love what it teaches us about approaching the Lord with humility in our weakness and how He can make weak things become strong. I talk about the importance of faith and hope, and what I learned about hope and my family this week.

The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E44 (Nov. 16-22) “That Evil May Be Done Away”Do you hear that? It's the sound of waves crashing, wind blowing....and mixtapes playing! That's right, it's a mixtape episode! Since we're traveling with the Jaredites to the promised land, I thought it was appropriate that we listen to some inspirational tunes about water.

How does the Lord show compassion towards us (like He did to the Brother of Jared)? How did the Brother of Jared make the stones? Why did the Lord say "never before have I shown myself"? All this and more on this week's episode.

The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E42 (Nov. 2-8) “I Speak unto You As If Ye Were Present”This week I really wondered about Mormon and Moroni's mental health. I mean, I've been wondering about it for awhile, but this week I really started looking at the way trauma impacted Moroni's writing style. We talk about why Moroni is one of my favorite scriptural writers, why bad things happen to good people, and why gold plates aren't a weird writing material in the ancient world. This episode is kind of research paper-y so if you want to see the quotes etc for yourself, you can find them in my blog at http://thesaviorsaid.blogspot.com/2020/10/s2-e42...

The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E41 “I Would That I Could Persuade All to Repent”As I've read the assigned reading this week, I keep thinking "Poor Mormon!" What did he see? What did his son see? The wickedness of the people he lived among had to be mindboggling. Yet through it all he loved them and loved the Lord. In this episode I try to find ways we can do that in our own lives.

The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E37 (Sept 21-27) "I am the Law and the Light"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!

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!

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!

The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E34 (Aug 31-Sept 9) "Glad Tidings of Great Joy"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:

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.

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!

The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E30 (Aug 3-9) “Stand Fast in the Faith of Christ”This week we dive into the "War Chapters" of the Book of Mormon. I wanted to do a scholarly reading and go into the different characters, the battles, the tactics, the strategies...but life had other plans. This has been a difficult week anxiety-wise as I start to look at going back to school in the middle of a pandemic hotspot. It has made focusing and really "studying" my scriptures difficult. However I found that "feasting on the words of Christ" sometimes means not studying the culture, the word usage, and all the other scholarly information on the text...

I went back and listened to the episode from Season 1 and honestly, I think it’s better than anything I could put together now! So this is a re-release of episode 33 from Season 1.

The Savior Said: A Come Follow Me PodcastS2 E6 (Feb 3-9) “We Lived after the Manner of Happiness”We've reached 2 Nephi! This week we talk about the law of opposition, Adam and Eve in the Garden, Nephi's a poet, and the curse of the Lamanites. The Come Follow Me print manual is different from the online version of the manual for the section 2 Nephi 5:20-21 "What was the curse that came upon the Lamanites". I recommend that you read the online version as the most up to date commentary on this section.

What wisdom could he impart? The answer is 1 and 2 Peter! This week I talk (a little) about the history of 1 & 2 Peter, how the gospel is preached to the dead (from 1 Peter 3:18–20; 4:6 and Doctrine and Covenants 138), and I interview Hayley to learn more about trials and joy!

I'm talking from my experience of working with thousands of teens in my profession, as a mother of a teenage boy, and just as someone who cares about kids. I talk about the stuff I think we need to be addressing with our kids besides "don't have sex until you're married". Things like consent, sex and technology, using respectful language, and sexual harassment.

There were several different themes Paul talked about in this epistle: unity, following the word of God, and chastity. Because of this, I've divided this episode up into two parts. There's Part 1 (this episode!) that talks about unity and following the word of God. Part 2 will be a special episode designed for Parents and Leaders of Youth- and anyone else who wants to listen along- that talks about chastity.
