From Come Follow Me:
"The writings of Isaiah include strong warnings, but they also offer hope and joy. This is one reason Nephi included them in his record: “I write some of the words of Isaiah,” he said, “that whoso ... shall see these words may lift up their hearts and rejoice” (2 Nephi 11:8). In a sense, the invitation to read Isaiah’s writings is an invitation to rejoice. You can take delight, as Nephi did, in Isaiah’s prophecies about the gathering of Israel, the coming of the Messiah, and the peace promised to the righteous. You can rejoice to live in the prophesied day when the Lord has “set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel” (2 Nephi 21:12). When you thirst after righteousness, you can “with joy ... draw water out of the wells of salvation” (2 Nephi 22:3). In other words, you can “rejoice in Christ” (2 Nephi 25:26)."

From Come Follow Me:
"The Nephites considered Nephi their “great protector” (see Jacob 1:10). He had also protected them against spiritual dangers, warning them against sin and urging them to come unto Christ. Now that task fell to Jacob, whom Nephi had consecrated to be a priest and teacher (see Jacob 1:18). Jacob felt a responsibility to boldly warn those who were “beginning to labor in sin” while also comforting “the wounded soul” of those who had been hurt by the sins of others (see Jacob 2:5–9). How would he do both? He would point them to Jesus Christ—because both groups needed the Savior’s healing (see Jacob 4). Like the message of Nephi before him, Jacob’s testimony was a call to “be reconciled unto [God] through the atonement of Christ” (Jacob 4:11)."

Join us this week as we discuss the continued difficulties the saints had of building up the church. All while having to move, purchase new lands and re establish themselves time and time and again. The early saints were challenged physically and spiritually to build of God's Kingdom here on the earth. From Bishop Edward Partridge, Leman Copley, Sidney Gilbert, to Newel Knight, W.W. Phelps, Ezra Thayre, and Thomas B. Marsh. All of these men were faced with their own challenges as The Lord looked for each mean to use their talents, means, and time to build up the Kingdom of God on earth. We find that some were willing to do anything that was required of them while others, although having a willing mind and heart, lacked the courage to fulfill their duties. Let's see what we can learn from these early saints and how we can apply it to our lives. The road traveled is not an easy one.

Self-Evaluation: A Path to Personal Growth and Holding Yourself Accountable to God's Plan
Self-evaluation is a powerful tool that can help individuals hold themselves accountable and promote personal growth. The process of reflecting on one's own experiences, behaviors, and accomplishments can help individuals better understand themselves, identify areas for improvement, and set goals for personal growth and development. This can be especially valuable for people seeking to become the person God wants them to be.
One of the key benefits of self-evaluation is that it helps individuals identify their strengths and weaknesses. This self-awareness can be particularly useful in the context of faith and spiritual growth, as it can help individuals understand where they may need to work on becoming more like Christ. By identifying areas where they need to grow, individuals can set specific goals and take action to become more like the person God wants them to be.
Another important aspect of self-evaluation is accountability. When individuals regularly reflect on their own experiences and behavior, they can hold themselves accountable for the actions they take and the choices they make. This can be especially important in a faith context, where individuals are seeking to live in accordance with God's will. By regularly evaluating their own behavior, individuals can ensure that they are living in a way that is consistent with God's plan for their life.
Self-evaluation can also be a powerful tool for personal growth. By regularly reflecting on their experiences and behaviors, individuals can identify areas where they need to improve and set goals to work towards. This can help individuals grow in their faith and become more like the person God wants them to be. For example, if an individual realizes that they need to work on becoming more patient, they can set a goal to practice patience in their daily life and work towards becoming a more patient person.
In conclusion, self-evaluation can be a valuable tool for individuals seeking to become the person God wants them to be. By promoting self-awareness, holding individuals accountable, and facilitating personal growth, self-evaluation can help individuals live in accordance with God's plan for their life. So, take time to reflect on your own experiences, behaviors, and accomplishments, and use the insights you gain to become the person God wants you to be.

After spending a lot of time expounding on the words of Isaiah, Nephi get's back to the plainness of the gospel in his writings and final testimony. The gospel at its core is simple and plain, yet wonderfully perfect. Christ was baptized not only to set an example, but also to keep the Father's commandments in which he states that all must be born of the water in order to enter the kingdom of Heaven. The Lord wants to be involved in our lives. Even though Nephi felt weak in writing, he did so anyway knowing the Lord would provide. The Lord can do the same for us in our lives. Men carry the words of the Lord unto the hearts of men and Spirit carries the words of the Lord into the hearts of men. We must be willing to receive the spirit. Finally, Nephi and his people leaving Jerusalem which was destroyed is compared to our current goals that Nasa and Elon Musk have in getting people on Mars. It would be like a colony being established on Mars and then Earth being destroyed. A whold new beginning with nothing left. Nephi and his completely left their world behind to begin a life in a new world, the promised land.

This week we have a special guest join us, Emily Crapo, from the
"To Know Him: Come Follow Me YouTube podcast.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-u4sWXc_OpzqqEC9ob_vIQ
From Come Follow Me:
Jonah was on a ship headed for Tarshish. There’s nothing wrong with sailing to Tarshish, except that it is far away from Nineveh, where Jonah was supposed to go to deliver God’s message. So when the ship encountered a great storm, Jonah knew it was because of his disobedience. At Jonah’s insistence, his fellow mariners cast him into the depths of the sea to stop the storm. It looked like the end of Jonah and his ministry. But the Lord hadn’t given up on Jonah—just as He hadn’t given up on the people of Nineveh and just as He doesn’t give up on any of us. As Micah taught, the Lord does not delight in condemning us, but “he delighteth in mercy.” When we turn to Him, “he will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and [He will] cast all [our] sins into the depths of the sea” (Micah 7:18–19).

You do not want to miss this discussion!!
Heidi Simpson from Saints In The South sits down with some moms to discuss their true feelings of Mother's Day. As we look to celebrate our mothers this year in 2021, lets look a litter deeper into what it means to be a woman and a mother in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Heidi facilitates a wonderful discussion of the highs and the lows of the hardest job on the planet. It's 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365.25 days out of the year. They get one day to be celebrated. Do we ever do it justice. Do we every give the moms in our lives the credit they deserve.
How do moms really feel about mother's day? Is there pressure to live up to a certain standard of motherhood in the Gospel of Jesus Christ? What if you really don't want to be a mother but have to anyway? What if you really want to be a mother, but don't get to be?
Is there a Heavenly Mother? What is expected of me as a mother? How does knowing I have a mother in heaven help me? What if I'm not naturally maternal? What If I want to be a mother but can't. These are all questions that Heidi brings up in the discussion.
Join Heidi as she sits down with these sisters in the south to talk women, mothers, and the journey of it all.
