4.28 - Alma 23-29 - The Stunning Repentance of the People of Ammon

[@paulinew5089]

As always, thank you for another wonderful discussion. The Pew survey results are, sadly, displayed around us more and more each day! I am in agreement with your closing statement of His return: Let it be soon!! Prayers of peace and comfort for you, Sister Anderson!! You are not alone!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️♥️♥️♥️

I love your podcast, I always learn so much.❤ I lost my son 4 years ago, the loss, hurt and pain will really never go away. But it does get somewhat bearable after some time and with the help of our Lord and Savior.

I can't help but rejoice when I heard your summation thoughts of the people of Ammon as a recovery from addiction. As I work in the field of mental health I often see where addictions have lead people and the heartbreaking stories that follow. It is so precious to me that the Lord gave us this story to allow us to see up close once more the blessings of returning to the fold when all seemed lost. Love your shared insights & you Lili!

Sister Anderson, I appreciate your words, especially about transgender vocabulary. We have a family in our ward that is hostile towards anyone that speaks truth about gender as taught in the Proclamation to the World on the Family. They tend to simply state their disagreement because they don’t believe the prophet or because it’s coming from a man. Really tough for me as I strive to teach truth and avoid contention but I’m inspired by your words; how I can’t control how others will react. I remember that even the people the Savior taught were hostile towards Him for simply stating truth. Thank you again.

Thank you so much. Sometimes, life has been so difficult for me, and I've been tempted to give up, or haven given up for up to a week. It's so hard to be willing to sacrifice even our most righteous desires to the Lord. I wish someone had a magic wand, and could just go in and simply heal my brain completely; the Lord has done so much to do that, but told me that if He changed all my brain, I wouldn't be who am I, and He needed me to just be me. I wish I could be as humble in my losses as you are being now, but I can keep trying to get there. I appreciate your example.

I hurt with you. With mental illness, depression specifically, there are times I feel as though things are so dark and hopeless I wish I could be finished with my time on earth. Depression, compounded with my husband's death last December and a daughter who has left the Church and pushed me out of her life completely, almost seem too hard. And yet, I have learned that offering my prayers aloud and really listening for guidance as I pray have given me an access to the healing power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ that's greater than I've known before. Things don't become any easier, but I know for sure that I can turn to Father in Heaven and Jesus to help me get through one more day at a time. We'll make it. The Savior did, and His load was far greater than ours will ever be.

Thank you for your time and talents! 🙏

Another great video! Thank you for doing them! Sorry about the "troll" in the comment section on your previous video. Your comments were perfectly clear to everyone that isn't looking for a reason to complain. Well done! I love your straight talk!

[@kathypearce9958]

Lilly I love your podcasts and your love of truth. I am on the same page with all of your comments. Most of us knew exactly what you were saying. It is so frustrating to me when people get off on different subjects. That’s not at all what you said and it seems like anyone with any common sense would understand where you’re coming from. Thank you for your added thoughts to the scriptures. Years ago, every time the church would put something out others would come back with derogatory statements. Research showed that 50 people from the south and 50 people from the north were hired by George Soros to constantly backlash everything that was posted by the church. I think that happens with the podcasts too. so just beware that most of us agree and support you.

My take on anti-Nephi Lehi is that they’re claiming descent from Lehi as a progenitor. And not Leman and Lemuel. But not through Nephi either! Thank you for your podcast. It is the greatest. I love it. Don’t ever stop!

I also sang 'O, That I were an Angel' a couple of times while I was in college! How fun that we have that in common. I remember I had to practice it many, many times before I could sing it without crying. I miss that no one performs it anymore. Also I'd like to add that I also lost my husband fairly recently. My heart goes out to you as you make the adjustment. It's been difficult for me to find a new sense of purpose and I appreciate your candor about that. What I do know is that going through this has made me feel God's love for me in my very marrow as I have leaned on His arm all through it, including the very lengthy illness that let up to my husband's death. God has helped and blessed me in more miraculous ways than I can count. I have no doubt that God has a special place in His heart for widows, and especially righteous widows whose lives are consecrated to Him. Keep trying with all your "mite" and I know you will feel His love and see miracles.

Thank you for your takeaways and ‘take you towards Christ’ moments - from these brilliant chapters. So many deep topics and thoughts surface through these chapters.

[@kathypearce9958]

I so enjoy Jonathan Cahn. One of my favorites is Return of the Gods.

[@cindyroper7659]

Lili, thank you so much for doing these podcasts. I look forward to listening to you each week. I lost my husband almost 3 years ago so I feel a bit of a connection with you. Wishing you all the best

[@robertlewis7208]

A lot of times people don't listen to what you say they interpret or spin I don't know if it's on purpose

[@divaden47]

I wish I could afford to be a patreon member of not just this podcast, but others that I watch. I feel I miss out on an awful lot, but I guess that my problem.😞

Anti Nephi- Lehi can mean “like a mirror or reflect of” or “to imitate”from Maxwell Institute Richard Dilworth Rust.
