    Alma 36-42 represents the largest section of a parent teaching children in any of our scriptures. Mark Ogletree and Kerry walk us through the amazing sermons with an eye towards parenting, or grandparenting, or uncle and aunting, etc. They help us see not only the principles he taught, but the way he taught them. They explore the ways different children need different things taught to them in different ways. They help us see the power the Book of Mormon has for families in a time when it is desperately needed.
    We are grateful for our sponsors, and for Launchpad Consulting Studios, our producer, and for Rich Nicholls, who composed and plays the music for the podcast.

    I think this quote by Pres. Nelson provides a model on how we should parent based on the high expectations that Heavenly Father has of us: “I urge you to stretch beyond your current spiritual ability to receive personal revelation, for the Lord has promised that “if thou shalt [seek], thou shalt receive revelation upon revelation, knowledge upon knowledge" and I would add that stretching ourselves produces strength beyond what we previously thought we were capable of.

      Thanks so much. I remember this. I needed to rehear it today. Right now.
      I am learning not to doubt myself and trust what I learn from Father directly.
      He WILL give me my hearts desire because it's the same as the reason we are all here.
      I love God I love the Gospel because it's all true! 😊

    When my son was in our home growing up, I always thought of my son as being like me. So my parenting choices were based on not repeating the mistakes my parents had made with me. Unfortunately, I made my own mistakes and my son, as a result, has been estranged from us for the past 25 years. There is not a day that passes that I don't regret and wish I would have taught him differently and understood that he is a very unique and different individual from me. Thank you for your discussion of these scriptures and the principles and wisdom you have shared.

      Lois... I am confident you cannot see with clarity the good you did as a parent. I know that God magnifies critical moments and memories in covenant making and covenant keeping parents. One day, like Alma, all that was good will be restored and enlarged in the mind of your child.

      @@mchabries I so agree with that! I have seen in many families the teachings of their youth come to the minds of adult children when they were ready for God to bring it to their minds. There is something powerful about it being part of the foundation of who they are.

      As long as it has been put in the inbox, the Lord will bring it to mind when it is the right time. Making this a core part of who they are as they grow up will have an influence at some point. The Lod will use it in His own timing, according to when they are ready for it. Bless us all in these efforts!
