I’m Cindy Parkus, a teacher Sunday school for adults and my dad is About to cross the veil today or tomorrow I’m another country far away that I can’t go, I have been receiving strength and love from my Heavenly Father and my Savior Jesucristo through your class and explanations. You are really angels to me.
So sorry for what you are going through! Sending prayers for you and your family ❤
My heart goes out to you and your father at this sacred time. Sending you prayers of comfort
Sending prayers your way! I’m sorry that you can’t be there with your dad, but I hope you can feel comfort in knowing he can feel your love and prayers.
Sending prayers for you and your family from UK 🙏
I hope in coming days you get will listen to What is This Thing Men Call Death by Brent L. Top ..was the greatest balm to me when I needed it most. Scriptures and quotes from prophets about what it's going to be like to be there. Welcome, peace, and love. All men are taken home to that God who gave them life.
Thank you, I am a new convert. Baptised on Nov 4th. Your teachings are clear and concise. Keep teaching us Truth.❤
Welcome to the loving fold of Jesus Christ. It’s such a blessing to be a member of His church and kingdom.
Kevin where did you grow up? I had a more senior classmate in my school.?
Welcome to the true church of Jesus Christ Kevin❤
Yes , welcome to the gospel
Welcome to you our Brother in Christ!
❤❤thank you
Once more, thank you both for sharing God's word & being blessed with understanding ❤
We learn so much more from the scriptures listening to you Tyler and Taylor you abound w/righteousness and are great teachers!! Thank you
I love you two-you bring so much truth and light into my life! Don’t know how I was able to function in my life -ever- before you came!
I thank you for taking the time to teach these powerful concepts and lessons. You have increased my knowledge and faith tremendously.
God Bless The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.🙏
Please keep everything the way it is… your balance is perfect. Love hearing both of your presentations!
Although this scripture did not start me on my road to finding the truth of God, it did, after reading it, confirm to me that my journey to conversion was, and is still, guided by the hand of the Lord.
Thank you Brothers Tyler and Taylor ! I look forward to listening to your lessons each week!
I've listened to your POD Casts for years but never seen you on youtube. I enjoy your PODs while I walk. Thanks for doing both.
Thank you so much for your insights. Greatly appreciate it.
Thank you your love and teaching the scriptures it’s wonderful l have been blessed by both love James teaching 😊
To me Gods love and laws kind of come full circle, in that when we obey those laws we are showing our love for God.
Thanks for taking time and helping me learn more clearly the gospel taught by true servants that lives long ago and applying it to our current conditions. Powerful.
I love this presentation. Thank you! The scriptures always give me exactly what I need. James 1:5 took on additional meaning today. I lack wisdom, I ask God, and I receive wisdom and direction, according to His great love, and knowledge of what I need. I’m eternally grateful.
I have been watching your presentations now for three years. They have assisted me to understand much more clearly the profound and strengthening force of the Old and New Testaments in my life. And the restoration of the gospel has come alive and my testimony of the Savior has increased. Thank you for your spirit and willingness to do this.

Thank you so very much for helping us gain more insight into the scriptures doctrines of the beautiful words and beauty of understanding through guidance to see the Lord give us understanding to better grasp what he ask us to live as he lives. Christ teaches the actions for us to better emulate him & gain a better appreciation of His love and actions to do likewise. So much love. We must love others and unconditionally to emulate Our Savior = joy.
When it comes to the horse and the ship I think one of the most important things that Jesus Christ shows us is that we literally just have to choose the lord, and the Lord is good and the Lord is love and literally everything else will follow behind us and we won't have to have fought for tomorrow or what we eat or what we drink we just do what is right, and the rest will follow and that is Faith and it's hard
I enjoyed reading your comment about choosing the Lord. I have horses. Horses can be moved in any direction with a bit, even while standing still, and while moving. That little “bit”, is powerful, especially in experienced & trusted hands, and more so, if the horse is willing.
Thank you for your service to all of us. You are definitely making a huge difference in many lives. Thank you for making the scriptures come alive for me. I have learned more from the scriptures since Come Follow Me has started, and you two have taught me so much. I love all I am learning from Scripture Central. Thank you again and again. ❤❤❤
Ditto from Alberta, Canada
This lesson answered so many needs and prayers, thank you so much for what you do. I am a single divorced senior sister. It's good to listen to two dedicated brethren like yourselves, besides my own study and prayer as I live alone
This lesson made me think of years ago, here in England daughters of the rich and noble were sent off to Switzerland, to attend Finishing School so they were able to know how to conduct themselves in order to make a good marriage. Seems to me that James’ epistle has taught me what I need to work at/learn/learn NOT what to do in order to be finished/perfected in Christ. Thanks Tyler and Taylor. 😊
Thanks Taylor and Tyler! Love you brothers!
Oh wow. What an incredible detailed lesson. I’m so very grateful for both your testimonies your love of truth. I’m always studying on my own. Your inspiring lessons are a strength and comfort to me Thank you ❤🇦🇺Johanna
Another wonderful lesson, so inspiring and uplifting
Wonderful presentation. Thanks!
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
So many insights this week. Looking at James as a "backstage pass", dispelling the either/or construct of faith and works, reminding me that the epistles are written to those (like us?) living in a pagan world; reminding me that sometimes I am talking before I know what I am talking about; the connection from Jacob to the 12 tribes to Joseph Smith and the gathering of Israel. Thank you. I have been well taught.
Thanks for helping us to understand the scriptures. I love James.
You guys are perfect team teachers. You each have your own insights and demonstrate your love for the scriptures. Thanks so much. I never miss an episode.
Muito obrigado pelas aulas maravilhosas! Sempre sinto o Espírito ao assistir às suas lições.
Thanks, brother Tyler and brother Taylor, for the beautiful lessons and helpful insights each week. I enjoy learning from you both and look forward to future lessons!
Reflection is key. As we OPEN our scriptures with real intent, we OPEN our hearts and minds to the influence of the Spirit ... thru which we can then contemplate inspired applications in our lives.
I LOVE these guys, SO insightful!! And interesting!!!
Thank you both so much! ❤🇨🇦
Great job as always!!
thank you both helping me to focus all the teaching of Jesus Christ 🙏🙏🙏 thank you for all yor knowledge to help us to understand folly...
Much Appreciated, more than you will ever know!!!
You 2 are soooooo good! I can just tell! Everything we study is your FAVORITE! You are so helpful to me and my students. You are my honorary favorite grandsons.
I feel the same way!
Always loved this book thank you for your insights!
I am so grateful for the work that you do. I am learning si much from your tinsights. Thank you so much
Love your teaching with the Spirit, you help me so much to add to my lesson presentations so many times
Thank you all for the video on James.
So happy that 2 of the half siblings joined the church and gave us such great books❤🙏 21:39
I have hearing loss and haven't been able to afford hearing aides. I can hear the lessons you two and any guests give. This program is a blessing in my life. I'm always positively impressed by your preparation and presentaion.
...v6 But let him ask in faith,...
This is a personal challenge.
Thank you, brethren, for providing applicable teachings.
Good job guys, as always. I want to become a doer of the word…working on it
❤
Love the class. Can we bring back the old microphones please? Hard to listen to right now
Thank you for another amazing lesson ❤ You bring such a great spirit of enlightenment when it comes to the scriptures and truths of the Gospel. I love the reminder to counsel with the Lord and ask what He wants and for the constant focus on Christ 🙏
Thank you❤
We are the one that has the reins for our horse or our life through our choices but it is the single I to God the straight and narrow that we should choose the good and choose the right and everything else comes right along without thought besides the thought of choosing the right. It is so simple that it's difficult. That's why we are told basically not to overthink. Becoming one heart and one mind is so simple because it's just a single eye to God which is all that is good and love, but getting rid of the noise in the background is hard, especially in this busy busy world with a million things were supposed to think about, it's hectic and so so easy to get completely distracted from the absolute simplest of the Lord Jesus Christ God and the right way
Thank you for another amazing presentation, Wow! I can think of many times when I asked the Lord for his wisdom and he delivered. There is nothing more beautiful than being taught by the spirit and receiving a special download from him. Thank you for this beautiful insight, Brethren.
I love what was said about not relying on the arm of flesh to form identity. This is a beautiful reminder. I also loved the insight of aligning our will with the Lord’s along with all other beautiful insights discussed here.
Have a great week, and God bless everyone at SC for the amazing work ❤
As a teacher, I often say that if your mouth is working, your brain is not. The kids always come back with the question, "Shouldn't we think about what we are saying?" My response is that I hope they use their brain BEFORE they open their mouth, because once they do, their brains shut off 😂
Oh, I love that comparison to musical notes; the two note gospel is indeed weak, I want the whole symphony of notes. Thank you for that viewpoint!
Great messages. Audio is a bit off though.
I noticed that the audio has been sounding a bit underwater, or maybe a mic is not functioning well, thankfully I can still understand okay.
As one who has learned how to speak with my husband in church assignments, I tend to hold back on purpose. I just have less to say. And I’m thankful when someone what is speaking more.
They are a great team.
And I’m sure they must get money from RUclips for all of the views.
Thanks for shearing the lesosns.
This week the audio is not as good.
What's up with the audio?
🌈🌈🌈☮️☮️☮️☮️💙💙💙💙💙💙💖💖💖💖💖💚💚💚 Peace and love to all be kand love overhatred always
Was the sound having problems on this episode?
Thank you. I regularly listen to your videos. Love your concepts and teachings you give. I have one question and it is coming from my unlearned ignorance. But I cannot conceive the belief that we will ever be an equal to Christ as it is through His sacrifice we, if repentance, etc., we are offered His Atonement in our efforts. Please give a source or scripture on the “equal”. That is a new concept for me. Thank you. I appreciate your videos.
🙏😇
❤️👫❤️...
I am so sorry to say that I finally said what needed to be said to you're very very close and important family member whose words were mean and made you feel absolutely worthless because it was all about them and supposed to be all about them and how dare you tell them you have a headache because they are suffering more than you, can you imagine God saying that? Because it was my father and I do sync everyday I am so glad I finally said that. I will not be treated that way anymore or allow other people to be treated that way because most of my words were about the way this person horribly treated others
It feels about as good as finally telling Satan to shut up you know he's a liar and you'll never believe him and I never feel the need to repent for that
Sound problems... 🤔
Is the audio off or just me?
Who did the art of the video thumbnail? I want this picture of Christ. ❤
ME TOOOO!!! Could the producers PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE include ALL the art credits used in the video somewhere in these wonderful lessons???
Should we have the tongue of angels against Satan Angels against those who genuinely genuinely harm people or should we tell them the truth
Who is the artist of the picture of Jesus for this episode?
from the Philippines paraiso ward sagay saints negros occidental
Does someone know the talk that Tyler referred to about judging by Elder Oaks?
There is a great BYU speech from 1998 by Elder Oaks called Judge Not and Judging. I’m guessing that’s what he’s talking about.
I kind of had the impression that Jesus didn't have much connection with his family. I remember reading that they met somewhere unexpectedly and didn't even really stop to visit. So I wondered how much influence Jesus could've had on James. 🤷♀️
I’ve thought about that too, and remember the scripture, (paraphrased) a prophet isn’t recognized in his own city. It seems when Jesus Christ, was crucified, died, and resurrected, some of his family finally got it. People like musicians and artists can become more famous after they die too. I actually appreciate my parents more, since they have passed away, and find myself quoting them.
We can look at Lehi's family as an example, Lehi, Sariah, Sam, Nephi, and Lehi's two daughters (maybe) were devoted and very strong in the Gospel, while Laman, and Lemuel were not set in the Gospel even though their lives and childhood were surrounded by the Gospel.
I have many Evangelical friends (whom I love) that say to me constantly that " The Bible is the end-all and be-all. It is ALL the TRUTH. We need nothing else". But then, when they get to James (who is the brother of Jesus, a formidable leader of the Church and an apostle) they shun James? Why? If they say The Bible is the end-all and be-all, why refuse and shun James which is an integral part of the Bible? Why only pick the Epistles that sound convenient and comfortable to them? Why pick and choose? They also tell me that when James said: "Faith without works is dead" is wrong. (huh? I thought the Bible was ALL truth?). They tell me that what James "meant to say" was: "Dead Faith without works is dead". Ummmm. There is no discussion of "dead faith" in the Bible. Either you have faith or you have not. Hebrews 6 and 9 talked about "dead works" but not about "dead faith". And James repeatedly talked about Faith and Works together in his Epistle, so he did no make a mistake. Paul also talked about WORKS together with FAITH. Paul did NOT talk EXCLUSIVELY ONLY talk about FAITH. There is no such thing as 'dead faith". In fact, Jesus taught about faith as very tiny as a "mustard seed". There is NO "negative faith". But there can be faith as very small as a mustard seed to begin with.
How do you know if James is the son of Mary versus the son of Joseph’s first wife
How is James a half brother of Jesus, same mother and different father, please explain what I am missing. Thank you
Jesus is the son of Mary & God the Father.
James & other siblings were the children of Mary & Joseph.
Same mother, different fathers, makes them 1/2 siblings.
Mary was the Savior's mother and his Father in Heaven was his real father and Joseph was James's father.
Please Let. TAYLOR talk more....please
I wish he would stop saying pithy though. It's so negative.
I think these brethren know what they’re doing. I can’t see any negatives with their presentation, it always seems to speak to my soul.
They work perfectly well as a team. It's not about who talks the most. I'm sure if Taylor wanted to direct more, he would. 👍
They are doing this for free. Maybe we should just be grateful for their work and service...
I asked the same thing a while back. One of the people behind the scenes said that Taylor intentionally holds back. For whatever reason.
I’m a suf
I’m
Why do you keep saying pithy?
Pithy is not a negative thing.
Pithy means concise and full of meaning. This is accurate for the book of James. It has a negative connotation right now because some on social media use their intelligence and skill with words as a weapon to tear others down or show off their intelligence. Similar to the way honesty is a good thing, but with bad intention can be used to hurt others.
