The Discussions

Scott and Eric discuss many topics with Ashton about his mission in Brazil, including: MTC in Provo vs. MTC in Brazil, mission president rules, when to baptize and when not to baptize, trios of death, and Brazilian food.

In the season premiere of Season 2 of The Discussions, Scott and Eric sit down with Mason Horton to talk about his mission to Iquitos, Perú. Mason shares great stories about his mission and his time spent in the Amazon. However, Mason returns from his mission early because of reasons discussed in the episode. They discuss the ramifications of coming home early and how he has dealt with it as time has passed. While it is never ideal for a missionary to come home early for any reason, Scott and Eric discuss that we are never in a position to make judgement calls on such situations.

It's been a while, but Scott and Eric are back. Do the current situation, Season 2 will be shorter than Season 1, but it will be memorable. Scott and Eric tease some of the upcoming episodes and reflect on what they learned from Season 1. Thanks for listening!

In the season 1 finale Eric and Jenyr talk with Scott about his mission in Brazil. Scott has an inspiring story about preparing to serve a mission; along with that story Scott tells of getting used to missionaries not always being obedient, a companion that falls a lot, and much more.
