From Come Follow Me: The Savior was hungry after traveling from Bethany to Jerusalem, and a fig tree in the distance looked like a source of food.

From Come Follow Me: In most situations, 99 out of 100 would be considered excellent—but not when such numbers stand for beloved children of God (see Doctrine and Covenants 18:10).

Thank you For Listening. Click here to Send us a comment if you have any thoughts on the episode! From Come Follow Me: Isn’t it strange that the Pharisees and Sadducees would demand that Jesus show them “a sign from heaven”? Weren’t His many well-known miracles enough?
