The BOM-BITES Come Follow Me Podcast

Whenever you have a spiritual experience - either before, after, or sometimes both, you’ve got to expect opposition in some form.  I love the what Joseph refers to himself in today’s episode and it should be a worthy goal for all of us to be called the same. 😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

I love reading the account of the First Vision!  The way Joseph sought after truth is the same way we can do it in our day. 😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

It never ceases to amaze me to see history repeated in the scriptures.  The same “war of words and tumult of opinions” is still as “incessant” today as it was in the early 1800’s. If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

The more I read the JSH, the more I see it as extremely relevant for our time.  Who do you look to when you see others “militate” after the growth and progress of the church? If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

How grateful I am that during such a time of many “calamities”, the Lord calls a prophet to guide us in these latter days!  Now, we just need to listen to him and HEARKEN.. If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

The preface of a book gives the author’s subject, scope, or aim.  Section 1 of the Doctrine and Covenants certainly does all of that and more.  Here is an intro and overview of “The Lord’s Preface” in D&C 1. If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

A calamity is “an event causing great and often sudden damage or distress; a disaster”...which often comes when we try to do things “our own way”. If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

Even though it's the opening chapter, D&C 1 wasn't given first chronologically—but it lays the foundation for everything that follows in the Doctrine and Covenants and the Restoration. If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

BOM-BITES are back for the new year and we are so excited to study the Doctrine and Covenants with you.  Here is a little intro to help you get started. 😀  If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

As we are finishing up the Book of Mormon today, I wanted to share a personal experience with it that made a huge impact on my testimony of this amazing book. If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

Today’s episode is a short one, but it’s a good one.  It’s one of my favorite principles of the gospel.  So grateful that Moroni exhorted me to remember this. 🙏🏻 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

Most everyone who has read the Book of Mormon is familiar with Moroni’s promise or challenge.  But there is one word that to me, adds a different dimension to our whole experience of determining the truthfulness of this wonderful book. 😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

Here we are!  Last chapter of the BOM!  And Moroni nails it with a few important “exhortations” for us, which will be our focus for this whole week.😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

One of the most important “exhortations” from Moroni is to have us remember how merciful the Lord has been in our lives.  That message really seems to be the bookends of the Book of Mormon along with everything in between. 🙏🏻 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

In the midst of all of the depravity and craziness, it is easy to be weighed down.  Moroni 9 has a verse that can change everything about your view when you’re having a rough go of things. 😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

There are many reasons why Jesus invites us to “be as little children” - this chapter adds to it very well. 😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

Do you believe in miracles?  As long as we have faith that they will happen, prepare to be amazed by them. 😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

Part 3 of Moroni’s “Priesthood Manual to future Lamanites”, he throws a ton of stuff into 9 short verses...the most interesting to me is a section that I like to call “How to fix boring church meetings”. 😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

Does God have a favorite scripture?  I really don’t know, but I think we make a pretty good case for a couple in today’s episode. 😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

In these opening chapters of Moroni, wanted future generations—including us—to understand how vital ordinances are and to feel the peace and power that come through the gift of the Holy Ghost. If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

Have you ever wondered why Moroni is at the top of most of our temples?  Yes, I know - we won’t be seeing him up there as much in future temples, but I think his example of proclaiming the gospel and standing as a lone witness is such a nice thing to see on top of our holiest places. 😇 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

In addition to studying the book of Moroni in the month of December, we also get a chance to #lighttheworld .  Today’s brief message introduces you to an idea we had to add to your experience of finishing the Book of Mormon this month. 😀 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here

God has always been a God of miracles...ALWAYS!  But our faith (in his will, his abilities, and his timing) are huge parts of whether or not that miracle will or won’t happen.  Sometimes miracles happen while we are waiting for a miracle to happen. 🙏🏻 If you’d like to view the video that goes with this podcast, click here
