This is a come follow me podcast for kids. You’ve found a primary podcast for the lds church. Welcome to the Come Follow Me Podcast for Kids! We are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and we create this podcast for primary aged children (2-12) following along with the church’s Come Follow Me Manual. This year we are studying the Book of Mormon. This weeks reading is: I Will Go And Do : 1 Nephi 1–5 The Book of Mormon begins with an account of a real family experiencing real struggles. It happened in 600 BC, but there are things about this account that might seem familiar to families today. This family was living in a world of wickedness, but the Lord promised them that if they would follow Him, He would lead them to safety. Along the way they had good moments and bad moments, great blessings and miracles, but they also had arguments and contention. Rarely in scripture is there such a detailed account of a family trying to live the gospel: parents struggling to inspire faith in their family and worrying about their safety, children deciding if they will believe their parents, and brothers dealing with jealousy and contention—and sometimes forgiving each other. Overall, there is power in this imperfect family’s examples of faith. In this podcast you will hear dramatized Book of Mormon audio that will teach children: The word of God is “of great worth” to me. I can gain and strengthen my testimony as I turn to the Lord. Nephi is known for his powerful faith in the Lord, but he had to work to gain his testimony—just as we all do. God will prepare a way for me to do His will.

When the Lord commanded Lehi’s sons to obtain the plates of brass, He did not give specific instructions on how to do it. This is often true of direction we receive from God. If your children would like to be guests on our podcast, please email us at [email protected] and we will send you an assignment for a future week.
