This week Ileana, Ben, Lilly and Ellie study Doctrine & Covenants 137–138 and talk about some of the most comforting truths in the gospel: what happens after we die, how God judges us, and why His plan is filled with both justice and mercy.

They discuss Joseph Smith’s vision of the celestial kingdom and the redemption of the dead, focusing on how God knows the desires of our hearts and provides every person a fair chance to accept the gospel, whether in this life or the next.

They also talk about:

• How God looks at our intentions, not just our outward actions

• Why missionary work continues in the spirit world

• The hope of being reunited with loved ones who have passed on

• How to create an environment where revelation can come

• The importance of pondering and listening, not just reading

• What it means to be judged with perfect fairness and perfect mercy

• Why no one is forgotten in God’s plan of salvation
