Episode Thirteen: Jacob 1-4

In this much belated episode, Amberly and Kendall discuss the passing of the torch from Nephi to Jacob, admiring just how big of a job Jacob is stepping into. Jacob gets to have some of the "fun" conversations with his people, preaching about how they willfully misinterpret the scriptures in order to justify their own very poor choices. Kendall notes that if we want to hear less criticism from the prophets, then we have to be more righteous, and Amberly points out that righteousness can be found in many places as long as we have the eyes to see it. Join us as we start our comeback arc towards any semblance of consistency!

Episode Twelve: 2 Nephi 31-33

We're back! After our long hiatus we are posting extras to get you all caught up as we catch up with editing. This episode, we discuss Nephi's final recorded testimony, and dive into what he thinks is most important for us to know and why. Nephi teaches the doctrine of Christ, which is faith, repentance, baptism, and the Gift of the Holy Ghost. Kendall shares some mission stories, and Amberly and Kendall show how in sync they are by marking the exact same verses. Join us for this glorious return!

Episode Eleven: 2 Nephi 26-30

*Forgive us as we catch up on editing! We've still been recording weekly and are just catching up on editing/uploading after a very busy few weeks for our family. Thanks for bearing with us and sticking around!* Today we go through 2 Nephi 26-30. We get to see how Nephi applies the words of Isaiah to his own prophecies, and what he hopes his descendants (and all of us!) get out of them. Kendall doesn't go quite as hard into the extended Isaiah interpretations, and Amberly gets to bring up her most favorite conference talk of the week yet. Join us as we approach the end of Nephi's ministry, and see what he wants us to get out of his last recorded prophetic passages!

Episode Ten: 2 Nephi 20-25

In this week's episode, we finish up with the Isaiah chapters and get a look at what Nephi wants his people (and us) to get out of them. We discuss the relative merits of "vibes-based" scripture study and look at more ways to navigate around a bunch of proper nouns we aren't familiar with in the scriptures. If you find it difficult to understand Isaiah, fret not! Nephi knows that's the case and gives us a good way to look at scripture we don't have perfect cultural context for.

Episode Nine: 2 Nephi 11-19

In this week's podcast, we start into the official "Isaiah chapters!" While many simply assume they'll always struggle with discerning meaning in these chapters, we're here to assure you that it is both doable and rewarding. Kendall goes into two different ways one can study highly symbolic scripture, and Amberly graciously lets him talk way more than anyone probably wants to hear. Join us this week and next as we dig into this feast of scripture that gets the endorsement of Jesus himself!
