August 08, 2021 Section 88 - Peace
How can I foster peace in my home/ward/community/class/etc.? This question, universally appealing, is at the heart of our study this week. In the midst conflict within the leadership of the early Restored Church, the prophet Joseph Smith received what he deemed an "olive leaf" crammed with principles of peace applicable to all. Study with us this week as we discover peace, invest our personal situations into that study, and connect to God's truth with a practical approach to acquiring light and truth.

July 31, 2021 Sections 85-87 - Divided
Division and divisiveness seem to be quite in vogue in recent years, a problem which the Lord certainly foresaw. In Doctrine & Covenants 85-87 early Church members were dealing with multiple kinds of division: religious, spiritual, and political. Join us in this episode as we study those different divisions and seek for what we can do about it.

July 19, 2021 Sections 81-83 - Bound
The word "covenant" is one of the more oft-used words in the Church. However, in our traditional attempts to scribe it we may diminish the power of the principle and, thus, diminish our own ability to be more powerfully connected to God. In this episode we discover an expanded definition of covenants and ponder how we can better covenant with God and others.

If you were asked to guess which kingdom of glory you will go to, what would you say? How confident would you be in your answer?

June 27, 2021 Sections 71-75 - Expedient
Often, as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ, it can be difficult to delineate between what is eternal and unchanging and what is more temporary and changeable. Whether it's statements in the scriptures or by Church leaders, particular policies or practices, or even truths and teachings, identifying what is permanent and what is not can be essentially important. In this episode we approach that very task as we study instructions the Lord gave to early Church members.

June 12, 2021 Sections 64-66 - Kingdom
When the Prophet dictated the prophetic plea that the "kingdom of God go forth, that the kingdom of heaven may come" it was revealed, not just a future event, but a present one as well. We can and should belong to and benefit from the kingdom of God on earth, now. In this episode we discover how, invest in our relationships with others, and are challenged to extend forgiveness.
