Thanks, Mike, for sharing your personal experience. Yes, too many of us, of whom I am one, seek for more obvious confirmation, don't we? Thank you both for your reassuring and encouraging words expanding these chapters. Mormon and his son are incredibly charitable, so alike Heavenly Father and His son in this attribute, admirable !
8:49 @ScriptureInsightsLearning I think another synonym of "laying hold" would be to cling to. I'm a visual thinker/learner so the image of laying hold would be akin to "hold on for dear life". Like those water rescues from helicopters: the person being rescued doesn't just have a light grip or is just holding on loosely. It reminds me of President Nelson's warnings that if we are going to spiritually survive, we need to cling to and lay hold to our testimonies of Jesus Christ, and to Him through the Holy Ghost.
Thank you, brethren. My chief takeaway this morning is how Mormon and Moroni exemplify the pure love of Christ. It seems to me that their relationship is a "type" of the relationship between Heavenly Father and Christ.

Cool insight!
I appreciated your take on "the pearl of great price". I have never thought of it that way.
Thanks for watching!
