- Part 2 of a 5-part verse-by-verse study of Alma 23-29, which recounts the history of the Anti-Nephi-Lehies. Part 2 covers Alma 24-25 and examines counseling together, post-conversion care, real repentance, weapons of peace, and non-violent protest--particularly relevant themes during this period of racial unrest following the unjustified death of George Floyd.

Holy Smack! What an awesome learning experience! Love love love this! I was just thanking Heavenly Father this morning for the many wonderful talented knowledgeable people who are willing to give of their time to benefit those of us who struggle with scripture study. My heart is so full with gratitude.
Thank you so much for your kindness and enthusiasm! Students like you make a teacher's day :) Thanks for letting me be a part of your scripture study!
Thank you!!!
I joined the Church when I was 15 an my desires for righteousness have always exceeded my ability I'm 58 now am just now able to forgive myself for that it took a lot of hard knocks lots of prayers and studying the the Scriptures and now scared bruised maybe through the Grace of the Lord I have grown up to salvation
That sounds like progress to me, my friend. Good thing we have eternity for God's grace to continue working within us.
What a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon studying Alma. Thank you for your dedication
Amen! Tough to beat some serious scripture study--one of the best ways to allow the Sabbath to "keep us holy"!
Once again learning and growing in the Gospel at the desk of Jared Halverson. "My best beloved brethern"... Who are they? All the priesthood members that have shared their knowledge with this woman. I'm so grateful that our paths crossed in Tennessee...please share my love to your sweet family and give them all a hug from me.
So wonderful to hear from you and reconnect in the scriptures! You are a blessing in our lives and I'm grateful for your friendship!
Thank you for your inspiring message
You are so welcome! Thanks for letting me be a part of your scripture study!
I knew l would be saved by grace but l never was able to completely grasp “after all we can do “. You wouldn’t believe how light l feel at the minute. Thanks again for your lessons.
I'm so glad the explanation helped--and thrilled at the lightness you feel! If you go back and watch the lessons from King Benjamin (Mosiah 1-6), you'll hear it explained in even greater depth. Thanks for letting me be a part of your scripture study!
I'm also a Cardon from Piedmont Valley. My grandfather was Joseph Samuel Cardon. My Cardon Grandfather & my mothers grandfather is AmmonTenney & all lived in Colonial Diaz Mexico a Mormon Colony
You come from good stock! The Cardons were an amazing family of converts. What a legacy those Waldensian Saints have left us!
Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for letting me be a part of your scripture study!
Brilliant. This is more than a presentation, this is an in-depth perspective of comprehending what Mormon shared from the gold plates, making it applicable for today. Brilliant! Only wish there were subtitles.
Thank you! The Book of Mormon is so packed with truth--I have a hard time skipping over anything! And I think RUclips can make subtitles if you hit the settings button. Thanks for watching!
Sunday morning in Holland love this
Thank you! My brother served his mission in Holland and came home with a great love of the country and its people!
I love this so much. It would be great if were also in a podcast. It’s more convenient to listen at work and while driving. Thanks for all your doing.
Thank you! I've been meaning to convert the audio to a podcast for a while now, but can't seem to carve out the time. But thank you for the nudge in the right direction--I agree with you!
Jesus takes the slums out of us then we take ourselves out of the slums President Spencer W Kimball
The delay in joining the Anti-Nephi-Lehis has a lot or parallels with the parable of the laborers in the vineyard. It doesn't matter when they come, as long as they come and enjoy all the blessings of the kingdom :)
What a beautiful parallel! I've never thought of that, but I completely agree. Thank you for sharing!
Have you ever thought of converting this to a podcast as well? Enjoy the content
I've been wanting to do that (probably just separate out the audio and leave it at that), but keep looking for the time. Thanks for the nudge in that direction! I need to do it!
Another fantastic presentation. However, you need to jettison all of the Mesoamerican artwork. The painting from the Gospel Art Kit at 33:44 was only shown once, I believe. That is geography neutral per church policy. The artwork at the 5:20 mark and numerous other places showing the DEEP pit or cave shows real swords and Aztec clubs.
Real swords with blood stains removed could be made bright and
kept bright--not the case with wooden Aztec clubs embedded with obsidian
(Macuahuitl)! This weapon was used in Mesoamerica between 900 and 1570. This is
over 1,000 years after they buried their weapons and weapons of war. This does
NOT fit Book of Mormon time periods!
If the church is really neutral on Geography, they have to get rid of all the Mesoamerican artwork in manuals, videos, magazines and wherever it may be found. Anybody that uses it to instruct others is violating church policy. Granted, most of the artwork was painted long before the neutrality policy. It still needs to go regardless of when it was painted. There is a vicious cycle with artwork. Artists paint what they were taught and then the next generation gets exposed to it and new artists paint what they were taught.
Look at the July 2020 Friend Magazine cover. It shows Alma standing in front of 2 Mayan pyramids, Chichen Itza is the most famous due to its unique shape and well-preserved symmetry--clearly represented behind Alma. Alma taught the Gospel about 100 BC. Chichen Itza was built about 600-800 AD--over 700 years after Alma. Do you see a problem with that?
The sad part about all of this Mesoamerican artwork (about 1/3 of the Book of Mormon Manual, Come Follow Me) is that over 200 neutral artwork pieces were offered to CES several years ago for the Book of Mormon manual and it was all REJECTED.
That is so unfortunate that the neutral artwork was rejected. I would love to have access to it!
