- Email at thescripturesarereal@gmail.com to learn about our amazing Church History Tour in October.
In this episode Kerry and Lori Denning explore the few verses of King Anti-Nephi-Lehi's speech and what we can learn from it. Neither was expecting that there was so much richness in that speech, but it became such a rich discussion that they didn't move on to other material. They discussed the transformation that took place for that group of people, and what it might look like for us. They also delve into the notion of turning weapons of war into weapons of peace.
We are grateful for our sponsors, and for our producer, BJ Muhlestein, and for Rich Nicholls, who composed and plays the music for the podcast.

It was lovely to hear Sister Denning cover this material twice, both here and on Follow Him. Thank you so much! I love your out-loud nerdiness and exuberance about everything, especially the scriptures.
Yes, that was a bit of a surprise to hear her tell the same stories there, but both ended up having some unique and powerful content that she conveyed. We sure love all she brings!
Thanks for your great discussion on these new converts' chosen name and its application to us personally.
I am so very glad it was helpful for you!
Love this! I will find my favorite couple of words to apply during the Sacrament to praise "My Great God"!
I love how you both taught that God takes away the painful guilt in our heart through the merits of His son. There is no limit on what Jesus Christ has done and continues to do for us
That is so important right now!
My great God.....thank you for this Kerry and Laurie, powerful and so many gems to consider and ponder on.
There is so much to learn from the Book of Mormon and the great people whose lives and teachings are therein!
Thank you for continuing to do these great discussions!! Enjoy Sister Denning and her sweet funny spirit. 🤓
She had so many great ways of looking at it, didn't she?!?
Thank you for sharing your awesome discussion and the way you both made the scriptures real. The expression of the Anti Nephi Lehi’s faith is a very unique one and you pulled out some great points. Thank you both.
It is such an important topic. Thank you, and I am glad it was helpful for you!
Great job on this one, as well, Lori! Love your thinking with the gospel lessons!'❤
Lori and Kerry: Thank you so much for this message I badly needed. God bless you both! 🤗🤗
Thank you. And I am so happy if this was part of God blessing you!
Great episode!
Thank you.
❤
I am glad it was helpful for you!
When Jesus Christ died and shed His blood for us is the greatest covenant, He ushered in Gods grace for all those who believe in the biblical Jesus. Without His grace we have nothing, and it is all because of His will that works through us. We can do nothing without Him. Jesus is significant.
Wow, that is all so true!
Thank you for doing these weekly podcasts. I really enjoy them. I especially enjoy the ones like this week's where there is a lot of personal application. We are reading the CFM verses each week so we don't need a recap of what we are reading. You do a great job in these podcasts of not just recapping, but rather making the scriptures real through personal application. Thanks again.
I am so glad it is that way for you. There is so much good stuff in there!
Bravo! Really good episode, for all the reasons sited by others. Thank you!
Thank you. I am glad it was helpful for you!
Great insights!! You gave me a lot to ponder. Thank you!
So glad it was helpful!
Very nice
Such fun stuff to think through!
Thank you for shedding light on this part of scripture that is never talked about. That was really cool to listen to!❤
I am so glad it was helpful for you!
your theory about the name "anti lehi nephite" is not crazy, that's the same impression I've received years ago.
I received the same impression a few years ago when I was pondering about the name.
It is the only one that really makes sense to me.
I think it makes so much sense!
That has also been my take on it, and this is the first time I've heard anyone else see it the same way. But like another commenter, I feel like it's the one that makes the most sense in the cultural context. Thank you for bringing it up!
@@stellar.1601 I am glad it works for so many of us!
Kerry Muhlestein indicated the meaning of Anti-Nephi-Lehis may be "not-Nephi" Lehites. In other words, those not descendants of Nephi but still descendants of Lehi. That is an interesting interpretation. However, Alma 17:19 seems to indicate that those in the land of Ishmael where Ammon was preaching are descendants of the sons of Ishmael who became "Lamanites." So it would seem that they are not descendants of Lehi at all but of Ishmael. Or did I misunderstand what was said?
This may be way off but maybe this could help. I understand that the sons of Ishmael were possibly married to Lehi's daughters and the sons of Lehi married the daughters of Ishmael except for Zorom. So most of their children would be descendants of both Ishmael and Lehi.
Although among modern Jews, a determination of Jewishness for children comes through the mother, Lehi, Ishmael, and their descendants lived in a patriarchal society so the dominant lineage identification would be through the patriarch. This is indicated by naming their geographic location as the Land of Ishmael and that they were descendants of the sons of Ishmael. Of course, children are the descendants of both their parents. But who the sons of Ishmael married is purely speculative.
That is where it started, in the land of Ishmael, but the later story is many, many more people than that, and they all considered themselves Lamanites, regardless of whom they descended from.
True.
