Helaman 13-16 | Sep 9-15

Join Heather, Stephanie, and Michelle as they discuss Samuel the Lamanite's visit to Zarahemla and the prophesies he shares with the Nephites. How can we stay firm and steadfast in our faith? What does burying our weapons of war mean in our lives? Do we support our modern-day prophets as much as we revere prophets of old? How the prophet tells us what we need to know, and not always what we want to know. Popularity is never a test of truth. What personal revelation did I receive today? The difference between commandments, cultural beliefs, and judgments of God. How we can walk before God on the covenant path, focusing on the things that matter. How Samuel lays out the Plan of Salvation.

Helaman 7-12 | Sep 2-8

Join Heather, Stephanie, and Michelle as they discuss how Nephi prays in his garden tower and a crowd gathers--this sets off a chain of events that lead to Nephi prophesying about the chief judge's murder. Nephi is given the power over temples and mountains and because of the people's wickedness, he asks for the Lord to bring famine to the land so that everyone will be humbled. How our righteousness in our sphere is important. Most of the quiet and powerful things we do are not public, but they are recognized by the Lord. The greatest reward goes to those who serve without expectation of reward. The similarities of what was happening to the Nephites and to our modern days. What did they do to maintain peace (inwardly)--they repent so they won't spiritually die, they headed the prophets, trusting God who will bless and prosper you.

Helaman 1-6 | Aug 26-Sep 1

Join Heather, Stephanie, and Michelle as they discuss when Pahoron dies and the goverment of Zarahemla is shaken up, Nephi and Lehi's missionary work and the still voice of mildness that brings peace to those who repent. What are secret combinations in our modern day and how can we avoid secret combinations in our own lives? How the secret combinations started with the wicked population, but slowly the righteous became tolerant of them. We might not be hidden from exposure to the adversary, but he cannot knock us down if we're on a sure foundation of Christ. The power of pivot, preparation, and creativity.

In what ways can we show up for them and bring encouragement and reinforcements? How we can trust in God? What is an unreliable narrator? What false narratives might we be living under? How we can pray for discernment.

Alma 43-52 | Aug 12-18

Join Heather, Stephanie, and Michelle as they discuss how Zarahemnah leads the Lamanites against the Nephites, how Zarahemnah wants to bring the Nephites into bondage, and the Nephites want to preserve their homes, families, religion, and liberty, how we can use these chapters to combat false messages and preachings, what strategies against the enemy are the prophets teaching us today, if we understand the intent of the enemy--it can help us prepare in our latter-day battles, what enticing messages poison us by degrees, how Amalickiah is a archetype of Lucifer--wants to be King, uses cunning words, is cast out, becomes more bitter and poisons by degree, how these chapters are a guidebook of how to recognize Satan's tactics, and how to prepare ourselves with our strongest defense.

Alma 39-42 | Aug 5-11

Alma 36-38 | Jul 29-Aug 4

Join Heather, Stephanie, and Michelle as they discuss the counsel that Alma the Younger gives to his sons Helaman and Shiblon, how Alma was born of God and dedicated his life to missionary work, Alma commissions Helaman to keep the records but to keep the 24 Plates of Ether away from the people lest they read them and be tempted into secret combinations, seeking God in all of our thoughts, the more we think, read, and study about Jesus will change how we feel about ourselves, "by small and simple means are great things brought to pass," the Lord knows everything but we don't have to know everything, how we should turn to the Lord for our support, and dedicating our days to the Lord.

Alma 32-35 | Jul 22-28

Join Heather, Stephanie, and Michelle as they discuss the teachings of Alma and Amulek to the poverty stricken Zoramites, how they were taught "not revile against those who do cast you out because of your exceeding poverty lest ye become sinners like unto them," faith is believing in something we can't see--but ARE true vs if we replace that with "fear" or "anxiety" into something that might or might not happen, how we can "zoom out and take the long view" (Tamara Runia) and how a hopeful approach instead of a fearful approach can make a difference, how having faith is a blessing vs having a perfect knowledge, Amulek's powerful testimony in Alma 34:8-10, and how being meek and lowly in heart is being Christlike and not a weakness.

Alma 30-31 | Jul 15-21

Join Heather, Stephanie, and Michelle as they discuss how peace reigns among the Nephites until Korihor arrives. What is an Anti-Christ and how to tell if an angel is a messenger of God? If we are not careful, the wrong voices can draw us away from the gospel. Making a diligent effort to follow the voice of the Lord, and how can we be better at not being deceived. Being aware of intellectual bondage. How Anti-Christ is also anti-family. Are we allowing secular humanism and relativism shadow our purpose on earth? Difference between Alma's prayer and the Zoramites' prayers. Bringing souls unto Christ. Reference: Bad Guys of the Book of Mormon by Dennis Gaunt.
