Thank you l feel my Savior love ,and I can’t help but to cry,so great lesson God bless 😢

[@jenijohnson6975]

Another great lesson! Brother Griffin- The most important thing you’ve taught me is how to learn from the scriptures myself and find out personally what the Lord is trying to teach me each week. Brother Halverson- I appreciate so much your love of words! Through you I’ve learned to take a magnifying glass over scriptures and look for the deeper meaning with the definition of names, words, and small detail. I feel so lucky that I have had the privilege of learning from Brother Griffin for so long. He has been a mentor to me for many years. First as a youth in seminary (Brigham City, Utah) then at Utah State University in institute, and for the past four years online. I still have a lot to learn from you! I really appreciated this week what you taught about ships. (Relationships, discipleship, mentorship, partnership etc). Thank you both so much for being my mentors!

When I was investigating the church in early 1975, I was 29 and had not grown up in any church. So all of Christianity was new to me. My thought at that time about Laman and Lemuel was that they had a great life as wealthy kids and had probably heard his father’s inspired comments quite often in the past; they did not want to adjust their good life for something unknown to them. Also, I wondered if Nephi was the “fair haired boy” in the family; the favored one. I personally have from the beginning accepted Nephi and Lehi as true prophets despite my lack of Christian understanding up to that point. The Spirit told me Nephi and Lehi were correct and following the Lord. I believe that much more strongly now. Thanks for your insights.

My Patriarchal blessing has changed many times over the decades, with Heavenly Father's compassion really showing. I read it 100 times, and then one day saw 'and one day, your children will love you'.. That wouldve hurt and shut down my heart if I'd seen it earlier. He waited until that trial was over before He let me see it ♥

[@lindamartinez7006]

What does that mean ? That your children were being rebellious or something like that ? Having trials with them!

[@soapingdown-under9758]

@@lindamartinez7006 yes ♥ it was a terrible time.. We had all survived trauma, and I guess I was the only one they felt safe enough to be angry with.. Fast forward 30 years and many miracles have happened ♥

[@aliciamilne2314]

It’s interesting that nephi wants us to see the great things….because that seems to be key in his brothers change.. they kept forgetting.and he doesn’t want that to happen to anyone else. What a sweetheart ❤

regarding the new app--as a person still learning how to navigate apps, and bc there is so much wonderful, overflowing info, can I recommend that you show even more detail about how you got to the screen you're on Before going to the next details of the map? ( Show going to the bottom of screen, choosing TRACKS, scroll to/find "I will Prepare theWay before You", and that they may have to zoom out to see what you are showing)? I eventually found it and I know it may seem silly to you who know apps well, but that might help people get to the marvelous content they might be too intimidated to get to. (and get the clear "less than 4 clicks" feeling). THANK you SO much for all of this free content to bless us

[@sallybeesley4170]

"Reproving betimes with sharpness." A friend of mine once gave me another way to look at this. Think of a photograph. A "sharp" picture is one that is very clear, everything is in focus, no fuzzy edges. Therefore reproving with sharpness doesn't mean being stern or cruel, it just means be very clear. Being stern or cruel comes out of our own frustration that we can't control another's actions. All we can do is be very clear about the truth. Others will always make their own choices.

Another excellent lesson

[@AomaluBartley]

Thank you so much for sharing i enjoy listen to your discussion we discuss this last Sunday during our Sunday school class

[@aliciamilne2314]

You can act and choose to love yourself and extend the love that’s always there for you from heaven to others:) and it’s not always easy and that’s why it’s a choice ❤

[@ZA-qk2og]

Nephi may have more educated, but being more educated doesn’t mean more wise. Joseph Smith is a great example of this. Great lesson, it I was a little confused at the focus on why education was a bit of the focal point of Nephi, when Nephi’s choice to pray and turn to the Lord was more profound than education. Keep up the great work ❤

[@ValerieFulmer]

As always, another great lesson.

[@josephinajohnson7591]

Still LOVE the lessons. THANKS for many years worth of Learning.

[@susanlev9697]

Thank You so much ❤

You are what you strive to be… worship idols and become like one. Man I didn’t realize that before

[@aracelybarrerasierra5724]

I really appreciate your teaching. In 1Nephi 17:9 I love Nephi praying to God for guidance to find the material to make the tools for the ship. In 2 Nephi 5:15-16. He was a hardworking person. He was a prophet, but also a genius. In my own opinion. Thank you.

[@michaelhutchings7596]

Great insights

[@JG-cx4fs]

I thought Nephi was third and Sam was 4th.... hmm didn't know that. Learned something new!

[@Angela-eq8kw]

Great ships!!

[@jessicaacosta5661]

This is such a great episode, thank you!!!

[@jeffmccollum7837]

Insightful--as always. (BTW I have been impressed with how skillfully these have been edited from the original.)

[@lauranewman564]

Regarding prophets needing correction sometimes, thanks for mentioning Moses. I immediately thought of the 116 pages, but that's understandable I think, since Steve Christensen was my friend and the 116 pages were important just then, in October 1985. Sigh.

[@Tubedog8]

I have been reading Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World by Jack Weatherford. He mentioned that when the Mongols from the steppe went down into China where there were moist farmlands, and their bows lost their strength. Maybe the brothers had wooden bows and they had lost their strength, and they had to rely on Nephi 's special bow made of fine steel.

[@kj7653]

I have always been sympathetic to Lehi starving in the desert when Nephi broke his bow. Lehi was the prophet and an old man. Nephi was young and strong. Nephi was called to build the ship. Lehi was the leader of the whole group. Lehi directed the group to gather and get into the ship.

[@Sarinhapth]

Even though Nephi was doing all things according to the will of God, still he had to suffer the consequences of his family choices.

[@johnthompson2256]

At the 16 minute mark there is a quote from 1 Nephi 16:29 …by small means the Lord can bring about great things. It is interesting that they are on a wilderness journey. Wilderness is in Hebrew Midbar. The word Midbar has at its root Dabar. Strongs concordance gives the meaning of many things, thing being one of them, but also word, work, doctrine. By adding the mem at the front one might think of a sea of Dabar. Now think Moses 1:4. My works are without end, and also my words, for they are without end. Dabar small things as part of a sea of small things. Confusing? No. Because eventually we combine in a Bamidbar. A congregation of tents organized around the tent of assembly. Beit as house or in this case relationship. A sea of words without direction or a liahona would just be a cacophony of sound. IMO.

[@claudiawieckenberg-og9vs]

Wonderful like every time 😇!!! Do you have a link or the title to elder bednars talk🙏🏼?

[@teremom6]

It was given in a CES fireside September 2007- you can find by searching for that

[@d.r.ostler8435]

Many good points overall, though others were unfortunately superficial. Please study Isaiah 48, 49 again (easier to understand not using the KJV), there was so much missed and other things mistaught. Why was chapter 22 skipped? You could have spent an hour just on ch 22 as it is so rich in truth and understanding of future events including the end times and the relationship of Lehi's seed and the covenant Gentiles. Nephi is spot on in his correct analysis of Isaiah 48, 49.
