I am 82 yrs old and have taught Seminary and Gospel Doctrine for years and I have to say I have learned more from your videos than I ever learned in my teaching yrs...Thank you for teaching with the spirit and and please keep the videos coming.I am thankful I found you on youtube.Thank you so much for blessing us with greater understanding of the scriptures.#Give thanks
I am thankful for all the wonderful people who take their time to share their insights and their testimony of the scriptures with the world. Thank you Tyler and Taylor! #GiveThanks
As a many generation member of the church, countless times have I read and reread the scriptures, really beginning in seminary (I’m now 62), and how many classroom discussions have I heard during gospel doctrine, RS and Sunday school, etc. I’m telling you that you both illustrate the scriptures in ways I’ve not before experienced, to the degree that meanings and conclusions drawn from your insights have made such a difference in appreciating not only the words and meanings of the writings, but of the authors as well! I greatly appreciate your deep thinking, your sincerity and intelligence that you both bring to your programs. My testimony has grown even more resolute, and how can I express gratitude for that!? ❣️
#GiveThanks- I´m truly thankful to our Heavenlyt Father for The Book of Moron and for all is Scriptures, for His Prophet and for you both for the lessons you have prepared and taugh us. Thank you!
Another favorite! Never fail to bring light that grows brighter and brighter every day. I love the lesson of comparison. Never looked at it that way before but it’s totally true and makes sense. I love the closing Taylor. Spot on! I need to improve on this and many more things. Thank you Taylor and Tyler for your great work. We need it. You don’t know how much you have helped increase my faith and hope and knowledge of the gospel and drawing closer to the Savior and trying to improve my life. Thank you. Love it all!♥️ #givethanks
Taylor - I was pleasantly surprised to hear you speak of the “5 Whys” at the 50 minute mark! I retired from Toyota Motor North America earlier this year after nearly 26 years. Although primarily used in our manufacturing sector to get to the “root cause”, we used it as well in our administrative tasks to seek answers beyond the surface. Beautiful segue to our lesson for next week! I’m always thankful/grateful for the lessons I learn from you and Tyler!
Thank you so much for this lesson. I have learned so much, I have been a life time member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and I have never learned so much about this gospel as I am learning now from you. I have listened to this lesson twice and will listen to it several more times because my mind can’t take it all in, there is so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart
You two amaze me in your ability to teach these things. I am so grateful for your input on every one of these lessons you all teach is so good. It's great How you bring out so much more information in the scriptures. I know the Lord must of hand picked each one of you that teach these lessons! All I can say is thank you for your time and effort you put into each of these lessons! You all do a great service for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and all that will listen, and most of all those who are eager to learn ! Also all the writers in the Book of Mormon that made these things possible for us to understand what they had really felt when writing the Book of Mormon ! All I can say what a privilege it is to be a part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints what a blessing ! We can't forget about our brother Joseph Smith our prophet for fighting so hard to do what is right , listen to the Lord. And have the power and authority and the will to do what our Lord needed him to do. We would still be without this book if Joseph Smith would had not been obedient to the Lord. I thank my Lord Jesus Christ constantly for his Loving Hands !
One thing I'll never forget while listening to your Come Follow me, is your love for the Book of Mormon and your testimonies. Thank you I learned so much this year. 2020 may have been a bummer in some things but the Book of Mormon rocked 2020. Peace
Taylor and Tyler. I am grateful to you and your team for the effort you put into these lessons. They have been and are a great blessing to me in my studies of the scriptures. I am so looking forward to next year's lessons on the Doctrine and Covenants. May the Lord continue to bless you in this work that you do. Arohanui Te Rangihau.
@Aaron Jess I am so glad that you are motivated to read and study the Book of Mormon. There was a time when I felt much the same as you. Reading and pondering the Book of Mormon touched my heart deeply. I hope the same for you.
@Aaron Jess well brother we are glad you are able to take the time and watch lessons of the Book of Mormon. I can promise you if you keep watching these lessons of the Book of Mormon take companion to the Bible he will be a part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Especially if you take the time to read the book of Mormon then as you read then ask God In The Name of Jesus Christ if these things are true, then you will receive the answer like we did that it is true! So many people read the scriptures or listen to people that speak Jesus Christ but they will not ask if it is true so that the Holy Ghost may do his job to witness to you that it is true ! And I can promise you if you do not ask you will be left in the dark with the precepts of man not God! You know I generally don't bother talking to people that criticize The Book of Mormon or the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, for whatever reason I responded to you. We have all been told if we do not boil the water in the creek before we drink it it could make us sick or kill us right it's the same with the scriptures. So how do we know if the water is drinkable? I would think you would smell and taste it first. Read the book then ask God these things are true with real intent, the Lord has promised ask and it will be refilled! Have the faith. I'm sure you have read James chapter 1, the promise is there. Thank you for your input.
Thank you for your research, understanding and faith to present these "lectures". Your insights have increased my faith and have taught me more about why I an here at this time and most important who the Savior is and his mission. Thank you
fabulous, thanks for the light and understanding you bring into a world in turmoil. Thank you for all you have taught me this year, things I would have missed without your intuition and knowledge which you so readily share with all of us. How blessed we are as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to have Prophets and Apostles and teachers to help us learn the way we should go and follow Christ and learn of His life and attributes and try to emulate them as best we can. Love is the potion that keeps life in motion.
Thank you for the principle of The 5 Whys, a powerful tool to help us love others as the Savior commands. And thank you for the time and effort you put into these lessons. I feel the Spirit in your teaching.
The Book of Mormon gives a clearer vision of the pride cycle and how it leads to sin and despair. I am so thankful that I found the Restored Church of Jesus Christ. Charity. and Love for One Another as Jesus Christ taught us, leads to happiness and eternal life. Thank you
I appreciate the weekly instruction and faithful commentary on our study of the Book of Mormon. It has made a difference in how I approach my study time and has enabled me, through the Spirit, to increase my faith and knowledge. I especially valued the closing comments by Taylor about the deadly political divisions at the end of the Jaredite history. His plea for us to review our own (current) personal and political divisions and return to emphasizing love, empathy and curiosity about "the others" in our lives, if followed, would go a long way to decreasing the fear and contention that is so prevalent. Thank you both for sharing your knowledge and testimony.
Thank you guys, l am blessed that you are doing this scripture study, l now understand more about God, but please give one another enough time to speak,and compliment one another to show support, you guys are awesome 👌 ❤❤
I'm grateful for all that's here for me to learn. The generosity of all of you to put this together and share with me! I feel when Mormon and Moroni add their comments it is because they are following the prompings of the Spirit. I have learned that from their examples I strive to live my life more in that way. #givethanks
I’m grateful for your lessons and the invitation that the gospel offers all of us. It invites all to be less distracted by what society offers and to pay more attention to things that really make a difference in our lives.
Thank you for another great lesson and I am so glad I managed to finish off watching this video today. Better late than never. Love conquers everything. Thanks for the tip about comparing with others. It's what holding me back. Wonderful lesson. Thank you again. 👍
Thank you for dedicating your heart and mind in teaching this sacred word of God each day. It is highlight of my day to start each morning with learning the scriptures and feeling His spirit so abundantly. After learning from both of you, I read the whole chapter and it brings out more profound meaning and understanding of what Heavenly Father wants me to learn. I feel real joy and peace each time I read, ponder, and learn from the scriptures!
Thank you both for such a relevant lesson to today’s here and now. I always come away with a greater knowledge thanks to your wonderful lessons. May I offer my gratitude to you both for sharing your knowledge, for the time and energy you put into every lesson. #GiveThanks 🌸🌸🌸🌸
My heart rejoice in gratitude knowing that during mine conversion I was invite to ask God WHY of mine weakness, ran into with desperation and FAITH to Ether 12:27 . I knew that along this journey will have brothers and teacher such Tayler and Taylor showing me and encouraging me to HOPE for the forgiveness , charity leading me always to repentance. Thank you solo much Brothers. God bless you and your families.
You are amazing teachers. The writing is about the feelings and understanding of the writings. Some people can speak with power others can write with power
I remember having to pray earnestly and then some to receive personal revelation when reading the BOM. The Lord knew how much of a challenge it would be for me to put in that kind of effort in 2020 so he gave me you. All I had to do was to watch you two teach with power and so much passion and personal revelations came with very little effort on my part. Thank you for helping me get through 2020!
It seems appropriate to add you both to my gratitude journal this week! So, I'd like to #givethanks for a whole year's worth of companion study to my Book of Mormon reading! Your weekly online classes have regularly brought new insights and greater depth to my own studies. Thank you so much!
Another wonderful, inspiring lesson. I had no idea that Moroni suffered with the same weakness as me. I have been comparing my weaknesses with the strengths of others for almost my whole life. Your lessons have taught me so much about myself and my relationship with God. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me see things in a better way and giving me the insight and tools i need to move forward. God bless you both
Thank you so much for this wonderful message that Ive learned in embracing the Gospel and learning the Book of Mormon which increases my understanding and learning that knowledge from the teaching you shared that turns to increase my faith and trusting God no matter how dark life may seems there is always light in the end .God bless you both .
Hi Catalina, we need not wait to the end for the light, we can have it in an instant in the perfect brightness of hope which anchors us to Christ, and (B) have courage to wait or exercise faith in the Lord timing.
This was another fantastic lesson. Your insights always send me on a chain of spiritual promptings and expanded understanding. I appreciate both of you so much!
What a profound lesson from beginning to end! I had so many ah-ha moments that kept me waiting and listening for more ah-ha moments. Thank you so very much for your in-depth studying of the scriptures and your willingness to share the truths of the Gospel with us to help lift us to a higher level of learning, understanding, and love for each other.
Thank you both for teaching about attribute of faith...we all need to be reminded of how much we are and will be tried in our near by future Having faith brings me hope 💕
Thank you so much for these lessons. They have made such a difference in our home church situation. Please don't stop! This really is the highlight of our week. You guys have a great gift in teaching.
This block of reading is one of the most inspired teachings of scripture love these guys and the teachings we have been blessed so much love these beautiful scriptures and they have helped me to have better faith thank you .
I can't express how much your knowledge and depth of the scriptures has helped me as we've studied the Book of Mormon this year. I find I'm not a real deep thinker, but your commentaries have provided insight that bought much more meaning to me, and have helped me make the scriptures much more personal to my life. Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to help so many. I look forward to watching your videos each week.
Thank you for the beautiful story about the Jefferson Monument. Yes, sometimes we'd better stop and ask ourselves some whys and try to understand the others, before demonizing them.
Cont'd... That was indeed a trial of my faith except at the time l didn't see it that way, l simply wanted to do right by my Lord. In return he showed me the might of his power. What occurred in that court room is the equivalent of the Bro of Jared's 'finger of the Lord.' Whenever my faith threatens to falter, l recall my tithing miracle and my faith is again grounded firmly in the Lord Jesus Christ and l feel empowered and feel stronger.
Your act of faith was so difficult because you could have lost your home. How frightening.But you chose to put your faith in God and He performed a miracle for YOU! Can you imagine how much He loves you?!!
@@richarddale7567 No Richard, such love is unimaginable. Yes l was frightened but my fear was not so much losing the house but telling the children, and then how would we live. What manner of love is it that a man, yea even a God would lay down His life for me? Such love is unimaginable. Its taken a while to truly see it let alone accept. Yes, He truly loves me, as He loves you and all his children. Thank you for your kind comments, God bless you.
Taylor - I was pleasantly surprised to hear you speak of the “5 Whys”. I retired from Toyota Motor North America earlier this year after nearly 26 years. Although primarily used in our manufacturing sector to get to the “root cause”, we used it in our administrative tasks as well to seek answers beyond the surface. Beautiful segue to our lesson! I’m always thankful & grateful for the lessons I learn from you & Tyler!
As a member of the church, I'm committed to the cause of seeking and embracing truth wherever I can find it! :) Thanks for making the world a better place with Toyota!
You brothers are so wonderful! The lessons you come up with so amazing!! I send every single one to my nephew investigating the church. It is like you are reaching out to teach everyone in the world, not just members of the church. We love you! Keep up the great work!!
How I completely understand the weakness of comparing ourselves (talents, righteousness, faith) to others! And particularly when you are longing to be a righteous, virtuous, and holy daughter or son of God. It's so hard to stop the comparisons, but looking to the Lord can definitely help, and it has helped me. Not saying that weakness is completely gone, but thanks to the Lord, those things don't bother me like they once did, and I'm a happier person because it! And again quoting our son: "Glory to God for it!" Great lesson! Thank you!
Your comment at the 49 minute mark makes me think about the two main political parties in the US. How thought provoking! My peace has increased by unaffiliating. It's much easier (but lonely) to SEE truth when others have admitted to setting aside their consciences to defend wrongdoing (on both sides). I keep reciting the Articles of Faith. I keep studying the scriptures. I keep praying. I keep building my faith in God. I keep trying to love all men, even as I respectfully disagree. 🙏❤️🙏
Thank you so much for another well taught lesson on Ether and Moroni! I am so grateful to have found your you tube videos! You have enlightened my mind and heart with your presentations. Hugs to you both!
Because of the way and power that you Taylor and Tyler teach I have come to love to read the book of Mormon. I feel the spirit emanate from you two and your love of the gospel and your testimony that you bear each time. Thank you for sharing your time and talents with the rest of us
This is beautiful. Thank you CFM for the lovely presentation. The first time I read Ether 12-15 I just about fell off my chair. I did a double take and re-read the passages a number of times. I was shocked, I could not believe Moroni had a weakness in writing. I am grateful to this wonderful prophet for his amazing love for the Lord and us. I saw hope and guidance where the writer saw weakness. I have come to realise that regardless of the weaknesses we see in ourselves, others will only see strengths ❤
In addition to comparison to others, I wonder if part of Moroni's weakness was being concerned about what others think of him (Gentiles mocking). Perhaps, through God's sufficient grace, Moroni's strength became the ability to be exclusively concerned about being pleasing to God. Thank you Taylor and Tyler for helping us better understand and feel the truth of the Book of Mormon and it's power to draw us closer to God.
Great question. I can imagine the enormous pressure I would be feeling if I had to write a book that would be read by millions 1500 years from now! I would feel small and week.
Thank you for the effort you put in each week to enlighten and teach us. I love your videos and watch them every week. My nonmember son in law is a faithful listener and is very inspired my your presentation. We hope that you will continue with these video next year. We are looking forward to your insights on the D & C and church history.
Yes, we plan to continue, Jill! And tell you son-in-law thank you for his time and interest! If he has any questions, he can drop me a note at taylor.halverson@gmail.com
Wow Ether 12 :26 you gave this insight just for me as I work with the Young Service Missionaries of the church. Sometimes I feel inadequate. The very words which you spoke is exactly the words that came out of my mouth. Then I remembered our setting apart from the Area Authority in which he said, "The Lord has placed you here at this time to work with these missionaries" Thank you for your teaching and inspired insights.
Thank you for another awesome lesson! I take notes every week. I have learned so much from you two. Thank you for the awesome spirit you bring. I never thought that Moronic was comparing himself to others. I will read that chapter again with different eyes.
Thanks for your knowledge and your testimonies. I’ve learned so much from your understanding. I read the book or Norman at least 6 times a. Year but have learned so much for your insight
If I can add to that if I could, I can promise if you read The Book of Mormon daily and pray daily you will see a change in yourself and in your life! The Lord has said and the prophets, this is the armor of God that will help you even the way you think, even temptation !
37:29 Good point.... Especially in todays world with social media and apps where the people are always comparing themselves with others on these platforms. People are always thinking that they're not enough or that their life is not "social media perfect"!
Wow! A lot to think about! Thank you for your powerful insights. I wish more people would listen to you. If they did and then do as you suggest, what a different society we would be living in! I don't mean to give so much credit. I know your insights come from God. You just share them well. So thank you for sharing.
Thanks for sharing all your knowledge and testimonies. Love everything about your lessons and the way you two present it. Loved the 5 why’s in this lesson.
I was quite interested in Taylor’s closing session about Shiz vs. Coriantumr. It caused me to think of other aspects of what they went through compared to what America is going through spiritually, the actions amongst the people and the severe division between political parties in 2024. If only we could all base our thoughts and opinions on a righteous peaceful foundation, how much it would seem more like what those older went through. There seemed only minor differences between political factions compared to today. Anyway, thank you Taylor for your deep thoughts.😊
Thanks for your weekly insights. I learn a lot. My wife also uses these for her early morning seminary class here in Port Angeles, WA. I introduced her to your channel and now she refers to your insights all the time. Thanks to Book of Mormon Central for all the good content on their site too. :)
I enjoy watching the both of you teaching. Insights that i have never thought of and that it makes total sense. I look forward to next year when you are doing Doctrine and Covenants.
Get lesson and profound insights. I enjoy listening Sunday morning as a review of the scripture assignments. We can learn so much from the insight of others. Much like your 5 why application here. Not that it changes the lesson but the imagery is of the Jefferson memorial Not the Washington monument. The lesson is still the same. Thank you again!
Ether chapter 3 verses 19 and 20 just amaze me. The Brother of Jared had faith no longer, because HE KNEW, I wonder if the Lord was surprised by his extreme faith that he could not be kept from within the veil.

It seems appropriate to add you both to my gratitude journal this week! So, I'd like to #givethanks for a whole year's worth of companion study to my Book of Mormon reading! Your weekly online classes have regularly brought new insights and greater depth to my own studies. Thank you so much!
Another wonderful, inspiring lesson. I had no idea that Moroni suffered with the same weakness as me. I have been comparing my weaknesses with the strengths of others for almost my whole life. Your lessons have taught me so much about myself and my relationship with God. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me see things in a better way and giving me the insight and tools i need to move forward. God bless you both
Thank you for the support!
God bless you Taylor and Tyler. You have inspired me and opened my eyes to the Gospel in so many new ways. THANK YOU.
Thanks Jeanette!
#givethanks
These videos have been a huge strength to me in my gospel study this year.
Thank you so much for this wonderful message that Ive learned in embracing the Gospel and learning the Book of Mormon which increases my understanding and learning that knowledge from the teaching you shared that turns to increase my faith and trusting God no matter how dark life may seems there is always light in the end .God bless you both .
You are a treasure!
Hi Catalina, we need not wait to the end for the light, we can have it in an instant in the perfect brightness of hope which anchors us to Christ, and (B) have courage to wait or exercise faith in the Lord timing.
I love the 5 WHYS .. I will be using this formular in the future.
Great to hear this!
Thank you so much for sharing your time and talents with us all. I love your lessons. They lift me up and inspire me to do better. Love you guys.
And we love you!
This was another fantastic lesson. Your insights always send me on a chain of spiritual promptings and expanded understanding. I appreciate both of you so much!
And we appreciate you!
What a profound lesson from beginning to end! I had so many ah-ha moments that kept me waiting and listening for more ah-ha moments. Thank you so very much for your in-depth studying of the scriptures and your willingness to share the truths of the Gospel with us to help lift us to a higher level of learning, understanding, and love for each other.
Thank you for the encouragement, Pat!
Thank you both for teaching about attribute of faith...we all need to be reminded of how much we are and will be tried in our near by future
Having faith brings me hope 💕
Be patient and hopeful! :)
Thank you so much for these lessons. They have made such a difference in our home church situation. Please don't stop! This really is the highlight of our week. You guys have a great gift in teaching.
This block of reading is one of the most inspired teachings of scripture love these guys and the teachings we have been blessed so much love these beautiful scriptures and they have helped me to have better faith thank you .
We love to hear that you love the scriptures!
Thank you sure love your depth of learning and passing it on to us all willing to hear!
Thank you for watching!
This is so profound about the book of momon,now I understand much more as before
I can't express how much your knowledge and depth of the scriptures has helped me as we've studied the Book of Mormon this year. I find I'm not a real deep thinker, but your commentaries have provided insight that bought much more meaning to me, and have helped me make the scriptures much more personal to my life. Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to help so many. I look forward to watching your videos each week.
Thank you Virginia!
Thank you for the beautiful story about the Jefferson Monument. Yes, sometimes we'd better stop and ask ourselves some whys and try to understand the others, before demonizing them.
Thanks Fabrizio!
Yes Fabrizio, we do need to ask why and we need to love everyone and try to understand their circumstances in life.
Thank you for that lesson on the Lectures of Faith and for the simple but profound lesson on trials and the purpose of Christ's Atonement.
Thanks for the note!
Cont'd... That was indeed a trial of my faith except at the time l didn't see it that way, l simply wanted to do right by my Lord. In return he showed me the might of his power. What occurred in that court room is the equivalent of the Bro of Jared's 'finger of the Lord.' Whenever my faith threatens to falter, l recall my tithing miracle and my faith is again grounded firmly in the Lord Jesus Christ and l feel empowered and feel stronger.
Your act of faith was so difficult because you could have lost your home. How frightening.But you chose to put your faith in God and He performed a miracle for YOU! Can you imagine how much He loves you?!!
@@richarddale7567 No Richard, such love is unimaginable. Yes l was frightened but my fear was not so much losing the house but telling the children, and then how would we live.
What manner of love is it that a man, yea even a God would lay down His life for me? Such love is unimaginable. Its taken a while to truly see it let alone accept. Yes, He truly loves me, as He loves you and all his children. Thank you for your kind comments, God bless you.
Taylor - I was pleasantly surprised to hear you speak of the “5 Whys”. I retired from Toyota Motor North America earlier this year after nearly 26 years. Although primarily used in our manufacturing sector to get to the “root cause”, we used it in our administrative tasks as well to seek answers beyond the surface. Beautiful segue to our lesson! I’m always thankful & grateful for the lessons I learn from you & Tyler!
As a member of the church, I'm committed to the cause of seeking and embracing truth wherever I can find it! :) Thanks for making the world a better place with Toyota!
You brothers are so wonderful! The lessons you come up with so amazing!! I send every single one to my nephew investigating the church. It is like you are reaching out to teach everyone in the world, not just members of the church. We love you! Keep up the great work!!
Thank you Sandra!
Thank you so much for this lesson, and expanding my knowledge of the gospel.
I look forward to these videos every week!
we love hearing from you!
I am grateful to get your insights on scriptures. Because of vision problems I can’t study or read the scriptures like I used to! Thank you!
How I completely understand the weakness of comparing ourselves (talents, righteousness, faith) to others! And particularly when you are longing to be a righteous, virtuous, and holy daughter or son of God. It's so hard to stop the comparisons, but looking to the Lord can definitely help, and it has helped me. Not saying that weakness is completely gone, but thanks to the Lord, those things don't bother me like they once did, and I'm a happier person because it! And again quoting our son: "Glory to God for it!" Great lesson! Thank you!
Love your insights, Jewel!
Your comment at the 49 minute mark makes me think about the two main political parties in the US. How thought provoking!
My peace has increased by unaffiliating. It's much easier (but lonely) to SEE truth when others have admitted to setting aside their consciences to defend wrongdoing (on both sides).
I keep reciting the Articles of Faith. I keep studying the scriptures. I keep praying. I keep building my faith in God. I keep trying to love all men, even as I respectfully disagree. 🙏❤️🙏
I love that you have chosen the party of God!
Thank you so much for another well taught lesson on Ether and Moroni! I am so grateful to have found your you tube videos! You have enlightened my mind and heart with your presentations. Hugs to you both!
Thank you for your kindness!
Because of the way and power that you Taylor and Tyler teach I have come to love to read the book of Mormon. I feel the spirit emanate from you two and your love of the gospel and your testimony that you bear each time. Thank you for sharing your time and talents with the rest of us
Thank you for the encouragement!
This is beautiful. Thank you CFM for the lovely presentation. The first time I read Ether 12-15 I just about fell off my chair. I did a double take and re-read the passages a number of times. I was shocked, I could not believe Moroni had a weakness in writing. I am grateful to this wonderful prophet for his amazing love for the Lord and us. I saw hope and guidance where the writer saw weakness. I have come to realise that regardless of the weaknesses we see in ourselves, others will only see strengths ❤
Love your thoughts, Marlee!
In addition to comparison to others, I wonder if part of Moroni's weakness was being concerned about what others think of him (Gentiles mocking). Perhaps, through God's sufficient grace, Moroni's strength became the ability to be exclusively concerned about being pleasing to God. Thank you Taylor and Tyler for helping us better understand and feel the truth of the Book of Mormon and it's power to draw us closer to God.
Great question. I can imagine the enormous pressure I would be feeling if I had to write a book that would be read by millions 1500 years from now! I would feel small and week.
@@taylorhalverson3052 Absolutely. A very understandable response. Thanks again for all you do to build faith in the restored gospel RB
Thank you for the effort you put in each week to enlighten and teach us. I love your videos and watch them every week. My nonmember son in law is a faithful listener and is very inspired my your presentation. We hope that you will continue with these video next year. We are looking forward to your insights on the D & C and church history.
Yes, we plan to continue, Jill! And tell you son-in-law thank you for his time and interest! If he has any questions, he can drop me a note at taylor.halverson@gmail.com
Wow Ether 12 :26 you gave this insight just for me as I work with the Young Service Missionaries of the church. Sometimes I feel inadequate. The very words which you spoke is exactly the words that came out of my mouth. Then I remembered our setting apart from the Area Authority in which he said, "The Lord has placed you here at this time to work with these missionaries" Thank you for your teaching and inspired insights.
Thank you for your consecrated service to the missionaries!
Thank you! These videos and discussions have helped me so much.
Excellent to hear this!
Thank you. You bring the scriptures to light for me.
The spirit is the enlightener! :)
Thank you for another awesome lesson! I take notes every week. I have learned so much from you two. Thank you for the awesome spirit you bring. I never thought that Moronic was comparing himself to others. I will read that chapter again with different eyes.
Pretty amazing, isn't it?
Wow , I’m really happy with this amazing lesson , thank you so much !
We hope to see you again!
Thanks for your knowledge and your testimonies. I’ve learned so much from your understanding. I read the book or Norman at least 6 times a. Year but have learned so much for your insight
Keep on learning! :)
If I can add to that if I could, I can promise if you read The Book of Mormon daily and pray daily you will see a change in yourself and in your life! The Lord has said and the prophets, this is the armor of God that will help you even the way you think, even temptation !
37:29 Good point.... Especially in todays world with social media and apps where the people are always comparing themselves with others on these platforms.
People are always thinking that they're not enough or that their life is not "social media perfect"!
I think we gained much courage to continue to learn and overcome weakness and do the needful work I came to do. Slow and steady.
Yes!
Such a great message especially In these dividing times! Uplifting as usual!! Thank you!!❤️
Thanks Vicki!
Great stories/gospel and lessons. Thank you T&T.
You are most welcome!
Yeah I think I'm going to use that. TNT
This was beautiful. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us.
And thank you for taking time to share your support and encouragement!
Wow! A lot to think about! Thank you for your powerful insights. I wish more people would listen to you. If they did and then do as you suggest, what a different society we would be living in!
I don't mean to give so much credit. I know your insights come from God. You just share them well. So thank you for sharing.
Always great to hear from you Elizabeth!
I always learn so much from your videos. Thank you for sharing your talents. (5 WHYS - what a great tool for everything in life.)
Yes it is!
First. Love you guys!
Thanks Jared!
Thank you! May both of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
And you, too!
I really love Ch 6. Faith, hope and charity. Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃 Thank you very much! 😍👏
Amen!
Thanks for sharing all your knowledge and testimonies. Love everything about your lessons and the way you two present it. Loved the 5 why’s in this lesson.
Thanks Loraine!
Beautiful insights thank you
You are the best!
I was quite interested in Taylor’s closing session about Shiz vs. Coriantumr. It caused me to think of other aspects of what they went through compared to what America is going through spiritually, the actions amongst the people and the severe division between political parties in 2024. If only we could all base our thoughts and opinions on a righteous peaceful foundation, how much it would seem more like what those older went through. There seemed only minor differences between political factions compared to today. Anyway, thank you Taylor for your deep thoughts.😊
Thanks a ton brethren! I gained a ton of insights 🙏🏾
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for your weekly insights. I learn a lot. My wife also uses these for her early morning seminary class here in Port Angeles, WA. I introduced her to your channel and now she refers to your insights all the time. Thanks to Book of Mormon Central for all the good content on their site too. :)
I love Port Angeles! Haven't been there since 2003 when I visited with my wife. Can't wait to return.
@@taylorhalverson3052 It's a pretty fantastic place. Look us up if you make it up here again!
Shared freely. Its confirmation unto me. Thank you ....all BOM writers !
We really appreciate your ongoing support, Tina!
I enjoy watching the both of you teaching. Insights that i have never thought of and that it makes total sense. I look forward to next year when you are doing Doctrine and Covenants.
We do too!
Get lesson and profound insights.
I enjoy listening Sunday morning as a review of the scripture assignments.
We can learn so much from the insight of others. Much like your 5 why application here.
Not that it changes the lesson but the imagery is of the Jefferson memorial
Not the Washington monument.
The lesson is still the same.
Thank you again!
I hope I said the Jefferson memorial! I've made the mistake before of talking about the washington monument.
Thank you for all the explanations in this video! crystal clear!
We are happy to hear this!
Oh I loved this today Thank you
Thanks for spending time with us, Sharon!
Very insightful. Thank you, once again.
Thanks John!
Thank you, brothers. I’m excited to learn you guys will be sharing your insights on D&C next year. Wishing your families a Happy Thanksgiving. 🍁🦃🍽
Thank you Richard!
I loved the 5 why to find out the answer ..I think Joseph Smith also have this 5 why to know the truth in this world..
Yes!
Jared, I second that.
Thanks Kev!
Pastor Jeff of Hello Saints must watch this
Thanks 🙏 for this class ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for being here!
I enjoyed the Testimony of Moroni. I could see Moroni humbly listening.
Thanks again for this video.
:)
Thank you for helping me to think and ask why several times before acting...
I wish I could follow my own advice! :)
@@taylorhalverson3052 isn't it true of teachers but eventually we learn.
Great lesson! Thank you
Thanks Chris!
Ether chapter 3 verses 19 and 20 just amaze me. The Brother of Jared had faith no longer, because HE KNEW, I wonder if the Lord was surprised by his extreme faith that he could not be kept from within the veil.
Interesting question!
What a beautiful ending! Thank you very much
You are welcome!
Thank you.
You bet!
