Alma's Prayer | Mosiah 25-28 | Come Follow Me
Welcome to the best of Come Follow Me! With so many wonderful podcasts available, it's easy to miss out on some truly insightful episodes. Each week, we recommend one that you should not miss. This week, we're highlighting Choosing Glory, where Sister Anderson offers an excellent discussion on suffering and sanctification. The Doctrine of Agency is exemplified by the stories of Alma and Limhi, and Alma the Younger and the Sons of Mosiah. Their choices, both before and after seeing the angel, are a perfect transition from last week's content to this week's content. My highlight comes from Talking Scripture. They emphasize how truly bad Alma the Younger was and his conversion story, a major theme in the Book of Mormon. Alma's transition from being the vilest of sinners to a devout follower of Jesus Christ is a testament to the power of the Lord's mercy. Another noteworthy discussion is from Scripture Gems. They discuss how the rising generation was turning away from their parents' beliefs in Mosiah 26. A conference talk from 2015 is referenced, likening living the gospel to learning how to dance with music—conversion is the music, and living the gospel is the dance. This helps explain why some may walk away from the faith despite knowing the gospel steps. Our evidence of the week comes from Scripture Central. They point out the significance of the number seven in the context of Alma setting up seven churches, paralleling other scriptural instances where seven is a holy number. Finally, we touch on a comment from a podcast about the separation of church and state in the context of Mosiah and Alma's leadership roles. The episode concludes with a light-hearted joke about a child's humorous misunderstanding of baptism. Thank you for joining us, and remember to follow Jesus. He loves you.
