Wonderful!!! Bless you all for bringing us this fabulous podcast each week. At 82 I SO SO look forward to the two of you and the knowledge and spirit you both bring as well as your terrific guests. Thank you and many blessings.
This was so fabulous, I can't thank you enough for these great podcasts. It's like a mini Education Week every Sunday. I am so thankful you bring these inspiring educated, faithful Saints to share their knowledge and understanding with us. I have learned so much this year and can't wait until next year, keep it going, you guys are awesome!!
I learned so many things I didn't know through this podcast today!! Thank you all so much!! What a blessing it is to have such great knowledge shared with us each week!!
I appreciate all that is done to make your podcast available to everyone. Your knowledge and the knowledge of your guests that has been shared during these podcasts has strengthened my testimony of The Book of Mormon and my savior & redemmer Jesus Christ. I have come to know my Jesus much better because of the efforts of you and all those who help make this podcast possible. Thanks from the bottom of my heart!
Krystal thank you for sharing your feelings when you lost your brother. It was very similar to feelings I had when I lost a son and then later a sister. At some points in our lives we have to dig a little deeper. Shortly after I lost my son I was reading these verses in Ether. I recall telling the Lord that I needed some help healing. I told God that I was going to serve a sister that I ministered to that day and asked him to touch my efforts so that they would bring light into my vessel. I testify that He did exactly that! These verses are sacred to me.
This has just become the second best episode for me (right after Dr. Baron's one on the ressurrection). Really enjoyed it. Thank you all folks for making this happen.
These episodes have been very inspired. Let us be more than convinced of the Book of Mormon. Rather, let us be converted by its every word through the spirit!
I listen to many LDS podcast like discussions of come follow me and your podcast has become my favorite. I like the way you get right to the subject matter and also that you keep things light. It's never boring. Thank you.
I LOVE this podcast you Hank and John put together for us to learn from. It’s my personal favorite in my Come Follow Me study every week! Thank you for your excellent work and the guest speakers always add so much!
I have loved every episode since I started "Following" and I feel that I've grown closer to my Savior because of your messages. This episode hits closer to home and has opened my eyes to an understanding of what Heavenly Father desires of me. This is now my most favorite episode. Thank you for the spirit you bring and the testimonies you share with your listeners. I love you guys.
I am grateful for this example of Heavenly Father giving the brother of Jared the opportunity to practice decision-making. I think the goal is to practice and practice our decision-making skills (which of course includes the 'studying it out in our minds...', prayer, listening to the Holy Ghost, etc) until, sometime in the future, we will find that the decisions we make are exactly the decisions that HF would tell us to make.
I dunno if John or Hank will ever read this comment but I am so grateful for how inspired Come Follow Me and this podcast is. This has been the hardest year of my life and I am so blessed to still be here. When you go through a seemingly never ending trial, that despite your faith and best efforts, doesn’t seem to go away or get better, you really begin to question what is the purpose of all this? What is the purpose of continuing to try? But when you really understand God and His nature and your relationship with Him, you can’t just tap out, no matter how hard it is. And for me, each week as I’ve listened, I’ve received the light, knowledge, comfort, peace, strength and hope that I have desperately needed, to keep carrying on, just a little bit longer. And then the next week comes and with that, a new episode, that seems to again, be exactly what I need to hear and give me exactly what I need to carry on. So thank you so much, from me and my family.
Verse 2:6 says they did build barges and crossed many waters -(smaller bodies of water)BEFORE they built the ones to cross the ocean. I think a 4th way this story shows how God might answer our prayers is to tell us as in verse 16, Go to work and build…after the manner you did before. Sometimes God has already helped us through a similar problem and we need to go back and reflect on that previous experience as we face the new challenge.
A great big thank you to the guests this week, Drs Pierce! What a duo! What a wealth of knowledge and understanding of this book and its history and make up. I really really really LOVED this week’s episode. Thank you so much! And as always , Bros Hank and John, I am blessed each week because of your podcast!
It just dawned on me that God gave the answers to the brother of Jared about the needs of air (God provides us life freely) and also the problem of steering (God will lead us) but wanted the brother of Jared to ponder on the lack of light just as we need to ponder and choose to receive lights (understanding, wisdom, mystery of God). 🤷🏻♀️
Lots of WOW moments in this podcast. Loved the insight on the tower of Babel and the tombs of the Egyptians. Enjoyed both sections. THANK you once again!
One thing that stands out to me is that the brother of Jared did not have a complete knowledge of God to have the veil lifted from his eyes. He had no idea that God was in the form of a man, and yet he was still able to come into the presence of God. Because of his faith in the Lord, he was able to enter into His presence. We do not have to have a perfect knowledge of everything. We just need to believe and have faith in Jesus Christ, and we, too, may enter into His presence.
Well said. I think the way we come into the presence of the Lord now is through the Holy Ghost. When we receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, we have access to the greatest Light available in this world.
Thanks for these podcasts. I was glad you discussed the reference to the shining stone in the footnotes in Genesis. My slight alteration to the lesson is this: God answers prayers outright when he needs to, but if he has answered the question before, we need to do some studying to find the answer. Tough for us in the last days because a lot of answers have already been given. I don't expect many handout answers. I expect the Lord to almost always be asking me what I think should be done. But the nice thing of the question the Lord asked is that he didn't say, "What will you do to solve this problem?" He said, "What would you like me to do to solve this problem?" My second thought is about the 4 years of not praying. I don't know why the Brother of Jared didn't pray (or what the phrase really means) but if I insert myself into the story, the details are clear. I never stopped praying, at least I had regular prayer, but I was totally unwilling to ask the next question that I knew was sitting before me. I knew what the answer would be, and I didn't want to ask. These waters? Those barges we have been building? Please no. I just won't ask. And I suspect I'm not the only person that has some things that are just stuffed in a closet or hidden in the corner that I don't really want to address at this moment, but I won't really be able to move on until I do.
Beautiful! And eye-opening about not wanting to ask just yet. I totally agree that we do behave like that (as opposed to suggesting he didnt pray at all). I thought of it more like they got into the routine of things and only had sort of flat, surface-level prayers - as opposed to profound, real conversations with the Lord where you open yourself up and actually get a response. Life was alright, so they got into a spiritual lull 🤷🏻♀️
This podcast was wonderful, they managed to bring the Pieces couple together and the clarity of Lilblo from Mormon has been great. Thank you for your time in the service of our redeemer Jesus Christ.❤❤❤❤
As always Great podcast, I like how Hank pointed out that those three things on 17.41, the boats had no air, the Lord gave him answers, then to steer the Lord says I’ll do it, and then when he got to the LIGHT, it’s, he asked what do you want me to do? as with all light we need to Work for “HIS LIGHT”…use our agency, seek, and work towards receiving his light… He wants us to work that out for ourselves with His help. I loved how it showed those three examples!
This was my first time getting through both videos and I was so sad when it ended. Where's part 3, please? :) You guys have amazing guests, but these two have been my favorites!! I love her gentle voice and how knowledgeable they both are about Egypt and that world. What a treat this episode was!!! Thank you for this wonderful podcast!!! ♡
I really appreciate the dedication and love you put into these lessons. AIl 4 of you!! I too as an adult first heard of our church. As I heard of Joseph Smith, I felt very doubtful. Then as I read the Book of Mormon, the Holy Spirit testified to me SO LOUDLY that this was all very true. At 83 now, I LOVE the Book of Mormon as well as our other scriptures. I have made my choice for eternity and I am trying to fill the rest of my time on earth with good deeds. Thank you for your examples!!
I think we discount too quickly the need for evidence of the Book of Mormon not as proof that we are right and others are wrong...but it is an explicit covenant with the patriarchs of the book that it will come to their descendants and brethren that those descendants will know what great things God has done for their fathers and for them. That can not be fulfilled in its entirety without connecting those children to their fathers in a literal and meaningful way....also I think that one of the reasons that the plates could not be left behind was not only our need of faith but if you think of what mainstream academia has done to any artifacts that don't fit their narrative it gets cast to the bin of fraud and forgery and becomes a real challenge for people to have any confidence in. If it were before our eyes there would be no less need for faith, but there would be mountains of naysayers pointing out all kinds of reasons to why it is a fake and forgery and those direct declarations are damning to so many artifacts that are in fact legit but held under by mainstream science because they don't follow their models and their understanding. Not having the plates is a blessing as it allows us to refer to the content not confused as much as we could by mainstream scientists. They already do much to tear it down and little by little their dogmatic stance is eroded showing more and more the historicity of the Book of Mormon.
Yes, I wanted to give a BIG shout out of THANKS to you and all your fantastic guests. We are ward missionaries and teach a BOM class for new members (and anyone else would like to attend). Often share some of your insights and encourage others to study with you 😃🙏🙏🙏❤️
Hank, I remember hearing you give a class about creation during Education Week. I can tell you were getting fired up about us being able to create because you’ve taught it so much. Thanks for your continued insights!
I find it interesting that the brother of Jared went to the mount to find the stone that we provide light, we go to the mount of the Lord or the temple to find the Lord to give us light and understanding.
The quote from President Monson was incorrectly linked to a "Teachings of President Monson" chapter instead of to his First Presidency Message from March of 1988, "The Quest of the Abundant Life". This quote resonated with me so powerfully that I had to look it up and share it with my family. We are children of a Creator!
Oh my gosh, once again, THANK YOU! I had some ah-ha moments in this episode. As always, I love when the humor comes out. 😅 Hank, my son got to see you this morning, (he lives in Mesa, AZ) and he loved your talk. Thank you. 💞 Just a few weeks ago, he saw Elder Bednar. Where I live (Montana) we don't get to see anyone cool. 😮 Am I a tad bit jealous? No, I'm a lot jealous! 😆 Seriously, though, I am beyond thankful that my boy is having the windows of Heaven opened and these blessings poured out upon him. 🙏
I just realized something: If Adam and Noah had a stone that emitted light (see Legends of the Jews for example) is it possible that they are Urim and Thummins, because those translate to Lights and Perfections?
I think the bro. of Jared probably was praying because he was their spiritual leader; prayer was probably ingrained into his schedule. However, (like me), when life is good after difficulties, my prayers gush with gratitude, and there isn’t an immediate need to commune and counsel with the Lord, so my prayers become fairly rote. Maybe, he wasn’t seeking to commune with God.
Is it possible that they thought they had arrived at the promised land when they reached the beach and didn’t ask Are we there yet? 4 yrs is a long time to hang out…..they reached a plateau and got comfortable without recognizing that it was not the destination just a plateau-like Pres Kimball once remarked on
You can't have windows. Get a Macbook Pro.🤣 And then you edited in the badum-ching! Made my day. I'll likely be trying to fall asleep tonight and then think of that and get into a laughing fit.
I love this podcast! Thank you for your efforts and your great inspired guests! Just a couple of comments - how could the Jaredites learn from the Egyptians about deseret? Remember, they had been one people until they were confounded and scattered. They all had the same knowledge and took it with them when they went their separate ways. The whole point of the confounding was that they couldn’t communicate with each other;.and the Jaredites got themselves out. Could it be that deseret is the Adamic word? Wasn’t that what Jared and Co. were left with while everyone else was confounded? Also, the Lord did not give faulty instructions about the barges. He was merely leading them step by step… they didn’t have to know the end from the beginning, any more than Nephi needing to know that he was going to kill Laban before he agreed to go back and get the plates. They were receiving instructions all along the way.
How did they bring enough food and fresh water for nearly o whole year ? How big did the barges have to be? Why didn't water come up into the hole in the bottom when open to get rid of the refuse?
What if seeing the plates is akin to making a covenant, the trespassing thereof is a pretty big deal. Few people see the plates because it's a heavy duty amount of knowledge and therefore responsibility and the Lord may not have require that of all of us due the high consequence for breaking said covenant. That's why we don't want people entering covenants until they are ready and able to keep them.
I’m searching for the 11111 comment or passage regarding how the Book of Mormon testifies of the truthfulness of the Bible and how the Bible testifies of the Truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. Can someone please help me
Wonderful!!! Bless you all for bringing us this fabulous podcast each week. At 82 I SO SO look forward to the two of you and the knowledge and spirit you both bring as well as your terrific guests. Thank you and many blessings.
Yay! Thank you!
I also Love your presentations!!All of you and the material you add for our better understanding of these scriptures! FANTASTIC!!!❤

Love this episode so much!! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your knowledge and incredible insights of the Book of Mormon.
This has just become the second best episode for me (right after Dr. Baron's one on the ressurrection). Really enjoyed it. Thank you all folks for making this happen.
This is one of the best you’ve ever done; I’ve listened to it at least five times already! Thank you, all, for such a great discussion!
The only thing better than having Sister Pierce or Brother Pierce as your guest is having Sister and Brother Pierce together.
Right?!!
These episodes have been very inspired. Let us be more than convinced of the Book of Mormon. Rather, let us be converted by its every word through the spirit!
Thank you for sharing your testimonies and your stories. What a wonderful life!
I listen to many LDS podcast like discussions of come follow me and your podcast has become my favorite. I like the way you get right to the subject matter and also that you keep things light. It's never boring. Thank you.
I LOVE this podcast you Hank and John put together for us to learn from. It’s my personal favorite in my Come Follow Me study every week!
Thank you for your excellent work and the guest speakers always add so much!
I love listening to these conversations. I learned so much and I shared it with my Sunday School class. Thank you!!
I have loved every episode since I started "Following" and I feel that I've grown closer to my Savior because of your messages.

I have a 40 minute drive to work. I listen to you guys every week. Keep up the good work!

I really really really LOVED this week’s episode. Thank you so much! And as always , Bros Hank and John, I am blessed each week because of your podcast!
Absolutely fabulous. Thank you so much - all of you. My testimony has grown, yet more. 😊
I love listening to this podcast each week!
Thank you for your sweet, and inspired, Spirits.
Thanks for listening
I appreciate the love and respect between these good people, husband and wife.

Yes!!! He gives us everything we NEED, but we need to work for our wants. He still helps us, but we have a say on those too.
This may be the best pod yet!❤
Thank you!!!
Thank you for all your thoughts and insights. 🥰

Extraordinary podcast with some extraordinary insights. Thank you
This podcast was wonderful, they managed to bring the Pieces couple together and the clarity of Lilblo from Mormon has been great. Thank you for your time in the service of our redeemer Jesus Christ.❤❤❤❤
Thanks for listening!
Thank you!! I find these discussions so enlightening.
The Book of Mormon - what a gift! Thanks to Drs Pierce and Hank and John for sharing your testimonies and insights of this amazing gift.
President Nelson in the last conference said, “Here is my promise to you: Every sincere seeker of Jesus Christ will find Him in the temple..”
So good! Thank you all.
As always Great podcast, I like how Hank pointed out that those three things on 17.41, the boats had no air, the Lord gave him answers, then to steer the Lord says I’ll do it, and then when he got to the LIGHT, it’s, he asked what do you want me to do?

You guys have amazing guests, but these two have been my favorites!! I love her gentle voice and how knowledgeable they both are about Egypt and that world. What a treat this episode was!!! Thank you for this wonderful podcast!!! ♡
We love them also!
I shared the comparison you made between the endowment and seeing the lords finger with my daughter. Thank you!
That's great!
Another great week in the can! I watched both parts two times and rewound several times. You and your brilliant guests make my life good. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!

John Bytheway was cracking me up on this one!
Great lesson!!! Thanks to you all!
Thanks for listening!
Love it, learned so much thank you
So glad!
I am loving the addition of sound effects :-) I love laughing with you guys!

Maybe the Lord was suggesting that we all need, by our own choices, the light of Christ within us to make it through mortality.
Sooo good!
I just realized something: If Adam and Noah had a stone that emitted light (see Legends of the Jews for example) is it possible that they are Urim and Thummins, because those translate to Lights and Perfections?
Thank you
Thank you again👏😊🇨🇦♥️

wonderful couple
John that joke was so terrible it was funny!
❤❤❤
One of the most amazing podcast!!!! Loved the Pierce Doctors❣️❣️ Krystal, what is your maiden name? I am from Cache Valley too
You can't have windows. Get a Macbook Pro.🤣 And then you edited in the badum-ching! Made my day. I'll likely be trying to fall asleep tonight and then think of that and get into a laughing fit.
Temple workers are instructed to allow patrons to proceed through the veil under their own volition when possible.
The editing was a bit rough this time. I wanted to hear what Bro. and Sister Pierce were saying. Otherwise, this was so good!
I love this podcast! Thank you for your efforts and your great inspired guests! Just a couple of comments - how could the Jaredites learn from the Egyptians about deseret? Remember, they had been one people until they were confounded and scattered. They all had the same knowledge and took it with them when they went their separate ways. The whole point of the confounding was that they couldn’t communicate with each other;.and the Jaredites got themselves out. Could it be that deseret is the Adamic word? Wasn’t that what Jared and Co. were left with while everyone else was confounded?
Also, the Lord did not give faulty instructions about the barges. He was merely leading them step by step… they didn’t have to know the end from the beginning, any more than Nephi needing to know that he was going to kill Laban before he agreed to go back and get the plates. They were receiving instructions all along the way.
How did they bring enough food and fresh water for nearly o whole year ? How big did the barges have to be? Why didn't water come up into the hole in the bottom when open to get rid of the refuse?
If you search "BrotherofSteve" Brother of Jared, Barges, you will see a video that models what it could have looked like that is pretty interesting.
What if seeing the plates is akin to making a covenant, the trespassing thereof is a pretty big deal. Few people see the plates because it's a heavy duty amount of knowledge and therefore responsibility and the Lord may not have require that of all of us due the high consequence for breaking said covenant. That's why we don't want people entering covenants until they are ready and able to keep them.
I’m searching for the 11111 comment or passage regarding how the Book of Mormon testifies of the truthfulness of the Bible and how the Bible testifies of the Truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. Can someone please help me
I would be sooooo sick in those barges in the ocean.
Thank you!
