Tyler, your skill at drawing circles is so satisfying! Haha
I was in your seminary class in high school, I knew you were a great teacher then and was so excited to find you teaching on here. So awesome to be learning from you again! Amazing lessons and so beneficial and educational for our family. My teenagers haven't enjoyed their scripture lessons this much in a while! Really feel the Spirit through your lessons. Thank you!
I forwarded your message to Tyler, Stephanie, to make sure he can see it. Thank you for this lovely note!
Thank you very much brother's ,for the very uplifting and inspiring insights. This will helps me a lot to stay close to my goal to return to my Heavenly Father. Being a LONE LDS member in the family is not easy and its very challenging. Keep up the good work brother's and stat safe.
Many blessings to you!
It's not by coincidence that we are reading about the war chapters just as we're gearing up for the battle between good and bad in our country. Thanks for all your efforts to help us better understand the scriptures. Love this
Thanks for watching.
Thank you two again, my spirit sings each time I am taught by you
We love to hear this!
Laura Parkes k
Just stop to say thank you for your teaching.
Many many thanks Taylor and Tyler for the time and effort you put into these lessons. I truly did especially appreciate today’s lesson. I have been following your lessons for a few months now and am extremely thankful to you . I live in the State of Victoria Australia and am a member of the church as are my brother in law and sister who have recently settled back in Australia but in another State. We use messenger daily to study the BOM together and they as I am are delighted to know about your site. We are all grateful to you and your families. We are learning so much from you both. Many thanks again , and many blessings to you all.🙏🏻😁
Thank you, dear Brothers. Every one of your videos is a spiritual feast. There is so much to learn! Today, the last words about our Savior helped me in a faith test I'm blessed to be having. And for some reason I remembered the principle of, "Are we not all beggars" in Mosiah, and then I thought of the moving poem, "The Touch of the Master's hand." We all depend upon the Master's hand in every moment; we "need Him every hour."
Beautiful and valuable reminder!
Thank you both for your lesson again today. I was spiritually edified and know many people are, particularly at this time of Covid restrictions necessitating limited church attendance. Coincidentally, I am currently reading The Screwtape Letters where Screwtape talks about our human peaks and troughs. I lost two children and my experiences in those troughs were exactly as you remind. We feel the Saviour has withdrawn but He is actually very closeby. When we draw on past experiences and reach the point of ‘E’en though He slay me, yet will I trust Him’ we are able to move forward strengthened and comforted.
We are blessed and strengthened by your faith!
For all the times I have taught the Pride Cycle I never saw the potential for the Celestial and Telestial parts. Throughout this study of the Bok of Mormon with you two my eyes have been opened to how much more there really is here. Thank you!
Thanks for your comment!
I agree Renee. Well said!
Another beautiful and instructive lesson. I appreciate the time you two take to present these lessons. You always make my day!❤️
And we always love hearing from you Ann Marie! You are a bright spot :)
Another amazing lesson. I would rather that the Covid 19 pandemic had not happened but if any good has come out of it for me, it's my deeper love for and understanding of The Book of Mormon. I have learnt so much from you. I'm truly blessed.
There are blessings to find, even in the most trying of circumstances!
I love your lessons and I'm grateful for both of you and your willingness to share your thoughts with us. Bless
you both.
Thank you for helping me understand the beauty of life and for helping me to remember the goodness of God. To keep my spirituality on guard even in darkest hour. Thanks to both of you. Indeed, you are an instruments in The Lord's hand to uplift those who are struggling like me and the rest.
Thank you for sharing a summary of key ideas that have mattered to you!
Thank you, we love listening each week. We have learned so much. In these crazy times it makes me feel part of a group bigger than just my household. I appreciate your hard work. Listening to you is a highlight to my week.
Thank you Wendy for you and your family!
This was our BOM Come Follow Me lesson in August and our capital was attacked in January. It's so clear how the Lord is warning us and preparing us for things that are coming. It's so clear I don't know how to explain it but I can see it. You both did a great job on this lesson, thank you so much!
So uplifting...sometime, I think because of the "trough" we find ourselves in these days, its hard to remember remember .... but this special lesson, reminded me of who I am, to hold fast to the iron rod & LISTEN...& REMEMBER...thanks for another beautiful lesson...God bless b safe...
Amen!
I am so grateful for this wonderful lesson. I have been in one of those deep troughs for a while now: storms, hail and lightenings of health, best friend’s failing health, family difficulties and illness and more - but your lesson illuminated the darkness for me, renewed my hope and strengthened my faith. Thank you!🙏🏼
We are encouraged by you, Michele!
And I by you my dear brothers!
Thank you on this lesson. It will help in my reading
Awesome! And we hope you also benefit from the free scripture study app www.scriptureplus.org/
Thank You both for this Beautiful articulation of Helaman. This lesson put our current political drama into the context of "The Eternal Perspective."🙏🏼
:)
This is now my favorite session. Although, it changes every week because I love them all! We have so enjoyed your videos. Setting the wars played out on the map has brought to life the magnitude of all they were facing. The pride cycle - I have never thought of it in such terms, and having the ability to split it up to be on the celestial cycle is such a great concept. Thank you and your team for continuing to bring such amazing insights to the gospel and for tying the Book of Mormon experiences to our lives today.
Thank you for your ongoing support!
I appreciate this class so much! I love the cool new things I have learned about the pride cycle and how I don’t have to go down the telestial slide. Thank you so much for helping us understand these things on a deeper level! I love you guys!
Thanks for letting us know that these resources are useful to you!
Best time to build your foundation? 20 years ago. 2nd best time? Right now. Best time to repent? 20 years ago. 2nd best time? Right now! Love it!
:)
Amen
Tylor and Taylor WONDERFUL GREAT Lesson THANK YOU....Hugs.
I am so grateful for your time, energy and knowledge you share through these lessons. It helps me to work at being a better person.
we love sharing!
THAT. WAS. PHENOMENAL...
Many thanks again.
You are welcome!
we are at the LOWEST point of life's "undulation" and I see sin, pride, despair, and satanic influence every night, all across our country , and as your lesson so perfectly pointed out, the only way we can prevail is to REMEMBER that we do not fight alone, our fight is with evil,proud , unrepentant people and we have our redeemer and Lord Jesus Christ with us, always, and it will be our focus to bring these sin led children back to obedience and repentance, (big job ahead!!) bless and thank you T&T---rick
Thanks for the encouraging reminder, Rick.
So wonderful! Thank you so much for your time and effort! I look forward to studying with you guys!!!!
We love having you as part of this group!
Same here! Thank you😊
Taylor Halverson
Dear Brother Halverson, I struggle to know how to help poor, needy relatives, who cry out for help-they know the church is true but will NOT attend church, serve in callings, pay tithing, etc. That they could do to better themselves.....How do I help them in the Lords way other than express love, encouragement etc?
They will NOT act and I worry now when we help, if it’s enabling them in their struggles... I so struggle because I love them so much and I think now that they are not ready to progress and that I should just leave them to struggle...🤷♀️until they are ready to reach out in physical ways to manifest their faith(like sup with the Saints) They are awesome sweet people, who use blame of not perfect Members as an excuse.....any ideas?
I'm touched and I'm grateful for your effort, hard work, humility, kindness, for loving Gos so much that you gave us your insights and teach us that starting to get a litle deeper into the doctrine and covenants of the book of mormon.
From my heart THANK YOU!!
Thank you for who you are!
I think that GRATITUDE is what breaks the prosperity cycle. If we count our blessings, acknowledge the hand of the Lord, and always thank Him, pride will not set in. I think of N. Eldon Tanner who was a multi millionaire and the CEO of one of the largest oil companies in the world. Even with all that money and worldly power, President Tanner remained humble and a valiant servant of God, who always showed gratitude to the Lord and kept all of his covenants.
Excellent insight!
Tracy Shine Gratitude overcomes pride
Tracy Shine gratitude overcomes pride
Gratitude can overcome almost any negative feeling. It is the "weight" that "tips the scale" towards positivity.
My husband and I look forward to your insightful and spiritually uplifting lessons every Sunday. Thanks so much to both of you for the time and effort you put into these great presentations.
This is so very encouraging to us, thank you Laurie!
That Pride cycle lesson was THE BEST! To show us.a Terrestrial, Telestial and Celestial way of life within that cycle and how to accomplish a celestial cycle was amazing. When prosperous be humble not prideful. 😊♥️
Amen!
If there was a love button, I would so press it for all your lessons. Thank you Taylor and Tyler for your inspired lessons that touch my heart and lift my soul, especially during my current horrible trials. Thank you for reminding me that Satan's storms won't last forever and trials are evidence that with everyone, I am one of Heavenly Father's favourites.
Amen!
Thank you for a great lesson.Since the Come Follow Me program, I have learned much more about the Book of Mormon, and appreciate it much more, than I have since I joined the church almost 8 years ago
😍😍🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌💯

What a lesson! The book of Mormon is a my hidden treasure ~ like the small voice coming out from the dust and whispering to your ear.. To let us "remember" the love god and the son our Savior Jesus Christ. The holy ghost testify me to my mind and my heart..."Come follow me" thousand years ago and our time... Thanks mil....for the lesson~
What a great note, Kim!
I love these videos they open up the messages in the Book of Mormon , I have a better understanding of it .
That is our hope and prayer!
I love learning from you both! I'm a very hands on learner, so all the visuals you use really helps me to connect with what is being taught. Thank you for sharing your talents with us.
Thanks for watching Heather!
You spend a lot of time talking about the mountain peaks and the troughs of life and I appreciate it very much. I've discovered that I must be a favourite being in this trough for way too long. I love the emphasis you put on the little things like the 'Ifs', 'Satan's mighty winds NOT gentle breezes' and Mormon's 'thus we sees'. Overall today, my heart is softened,
beautiful insights!
Thank you for another wonderful lesson presentation.
Thank you Kathy!
THANK YOU... Thank You... thank you.
As always, you are welcome!
This lesson really touched me, more so than any other. Thank you for your insights and knowledge. I loved this lesson!
Thanks you for letting us know!
Beautifully taught ......thank you so much for being great teachers. I always look forward to your weekly insights and lesson.
Thank you Leva!
The Telestial, Terrestrial and Celestial life cycles are profound and a marvelous lens through which we can view our options for living in this life. Helaman 5:12 is a key verse in all of scripture that provides opportunity for pondering as to how we will face the storms of life. Thanks for wonderful insights!
Thanks for watching, Tom!
This lesson provided me with the answer to a question I pondered on for more then 48 years. That question is: Where did Christ go after he descended? How could he stand descending when He was perfect? Through this lesson it finally all came together. I am truly grateful for your humble spirits and love not only for the gospel but for me. :) Very grateful.
Awesome to hear know that this helped answer your question!
You young teachers, you are great! I love you but ... love my Savior even more ; ) greetings from Belgium
As always, thank you Julie!
These lessons help make my Sunday awesome. Thank you!
Hard to go wrong with the scriptures and the gospel!
Wow, this is so very insightful! Thank you very much for all you do to help us understand the teachings of the Book of Mormon, and how they relate to us. Thank you for your help in deeper understanding and coming closer to Jesus Christ.
You are most welcome!
I am so grateful for you both. You are both such wonderful teachers. I hope you continue to teach for years to come.
We plan to continue for D&C and hopefully for OT and NT years!
Tyler and Taylor thank you very much for your wonderful and helpful lessons each week. We have incorporated your lessons into our Sabbath Day in Home Sunday School lesson. My husband and I are beyond grateful. We both have been in the Church many years, my husband his entire life of 82 years. We both are gaining new perspectives through your lessons. These are a blessing to us.
And you are a blessing to us! Thank you for spending time with us!
This is an awesome lesson. I needed this lesson so much!!! Thank you thank you!,
Thanks for spending time with us Esther!
Thank you so much for this lesson. I really loved the Screwtape letters section. Whenever I hear Screwtape Letters I'm reminded of The Enoch letters by Elder Maxwell. Love them both. Thank you for your preparation and helping us feel the Spirit of the Lord.
Thanks for spending time with us May!
Thank you so much! Totally love your style, insights and humble generosity ! Be Blessed!
We appreciate the blessing!
This was one of my favorite lessons that u gave! I do appreciate all u do to help teach me and others. Thank u so much for all the light
Thanks Rone!
Excellent work again. Very inspiring to me thank you for all you do.
We are benefited from people like you who are so supportive!
Awesome! Thank you for the emphasis on humility and the need to refrain from thinking you’re better than others. Totally relatable teachings 👍👍👌👌
That is the gospel!
By the way, Nephi's name comes from the Egyptian word Nefer (as found in Nefertiti!). Nefer, like Nefertiti en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nefertiti. Nefer = beautiful. By the time of Lehi's day the "r" in Nefer was often dropped so you'd get Nefe or Nephi. www.fairmormon.org/conference/august-2019/laman-and-nephi-as-key-words
Again, another wonderful treat for me listening to your beautiful insights. Thank you both so much.
We love to share!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and testimony.
Thanks for reaching out, Bev!
Wonderful lesson! Thank you🎂😍👏
You are most welcome!
And its come to pass upon me that I know Joseph Smith is indeed from Father to bring this to me with all these wonderful writers. Thank u brother Mormon for being worthy of The Spirit for so much!
Beautiful note.
Wow this lesson is full of inspiration and Taylor and Tyler both do a great job explaining this lesson and these were things in this lesson I didn't even know
Thank you so much for this presentation. It has come at just the right time for me - something that seems to happen every week ........ :)
Love your lessons - so grateful for them.
Thank you for your love and faithfulness, Vivien!
Thank you for another wonderful lesson.
Thank you Bonnie!
Thank you so much for this insightful lesson. I am looking forward to listening to it over and over again.
Thank you Vivien!
Always admire you guys teaching every week, and also love the map you use in your lesson brilliant idea Tyler Thank you so much learned a lot and loved it.. well done!!
Thanks Lola!
This is a great lesson, Thanks so much. It's so pertinent to our times today....WOW!!
Thank you so much
The gospel is beautiful and amazing!
Bro. Tyler, if I have to qualify your lesson today, i will use only one word WAOOOO! You guys are such a spiritual banquet teaching the gospel. Thanks a million. My next Sunday teaching will be so great, because you had touched my heart deeply and I want to share this joy with my students.
Thank you Edgar!
I like the discussion of Nephi and Laman’s names and how they might be descriptors as opposed to actual given names. One aspect of that possible truth that is intriguing is how people become “-ites” by attaching themselves to the descriptors. I become a “Laman-ite” if I choose not to believe. I become a “Nephi -ite” if I choose to believe and seek truth. As a child of God with the power to choose, I can maneuver myself into either one of those descriptors and may even oscillate between them at times. When you view the names as descriptors, it seems to me that the importance of liberty and agency become clearer and more available to all, regardless of being born in Zarahemla or the land southward.
Beautiful insight! Thank you for sharing!!
Eu amo suas classes! Você é muito bom comentador e também muito spiritual! Sua voz e bem calmante! Abraço
Obrigado por quem você é e por seu amor a Deus e ao Evangelho. Muitas bênçãos para você!
Taylor Halverson você também serviu sua missão no Brasil?
great lesson, just what I needed today
Perfect!
Have enjoyed your lessons so much and have learned much. Thank you.
Thanks Eileen!
This was a really great episode. Thanks so much!
Thank you!
I regularly watch these teachings and I like them a lot but this particular teaching was the BEST ever. Thank you very much, I learned a lot and felt the spirit :)
Beautiful to know this!
Thank you so much for this wonderful lesson Ive learned today that strenghten my faith and opening my heart and mind trully life is not perfect we all experience rough roads the ups and downs yeah only one thing keep thy commandments be humble repent and turn to God for He is the answer and solution to every difficulties .
God bless you both for sharing and teaching .😇😇😇
Thank you for this beautiful faith and note!
Wow ... his favorites... like Job!What a comfort to they who endure the troughs in life!Remembering all he has provided 💕🕊👍
Thank you Vicky!
Thank you for your insightful messages. I love all your weekly presentations, but this was especially great. Thanks for the “remember” reminders, and always choosing humility instead of pride explanations. Wow, so helpful this week.
Glad this was helpful!
Thank you so much for this lesson because today I needed your insight into the undulations of life. Great lesson from beginning to end. I’m so glad I found your website.
Great to have you here!
I liked what you said about pride being unable to enter into the church except by entering into the hearts of its members. Reminded me of the vision of the tree of life and how the great and spacious building, the pride of the world, the voices from there tried and succeeded in some cases to get into the hearts of those who had partakes of the fruit and then fell away.
Great insight!
Thank you once again! I look forward to listening each week!
And we look forward to making these each week!
Great lesson!
And you always give us 110% :)
I enjoy your presentation and learn so much and feel the Spirit so strong! Thank you so much! Please keep what you are doing. I enjoy the name connections along with everything else.
Thanks for being part of this incredible worldwide sunday school class!
I love your high and low bit. I know we have different trials and my heart goes out to those in bushfires at present. I hope they continue to call upon God rather than say He has deserted me.Because He has done no such thing. There are some beautiful songs that I find uplifting. There is usually someone to help so we turn outward rather than sit in sympathy for ourself but it is good to be still and know that He is with us. I enjoyed input from both of you through the lesson, thank you.
Beautiful and encouraging note, Peggy, thank you!
I love your lessons, I teach seminary and have used so much of your information in my classes. We are now getting ahead of you so I only watch for my own study. Wish you could do several weeks in advance.
Yeah, we are following the Come Follow Me curriculum so we may be at different spot that seminary. sorry :(
Your lessons are always so inspiring. Thank you from Halifax Nova Scotia....a tiny corner of the Lord's vineyard
And a beautiful corner!
We so appreciate your wonderful insights!
Thank you Traci for your regular encouragement.
Perfect for our time!
The Book of Mormon is indeed perfect for our time!
Excellent !
Thanks.

Thank you for sharing your love for the Scriptures and our Redeemer, along with your knowledge on a level easily accessible ☺️
Thanks for this feedback. The Gospel is not intended to be complex. If it seems that way someone probably has not done a good job of teaching. :)
The contrast between secret combinations and sacred covenants concerning the focus is the same as the difference between leaders who serve and those who reign (like in terror). This is very much like what we are seeing in the days leading up to the second coming of Christ.
And the Book of Mormon is very much for our day.
Thanks so much for your lesson. Especially thanks for pointing out the remember in Moroni 10:3. I missed this through the many times I read this verse.
Thanks for your note, Charles!
My husband and I have learned so much from your insights. In fact my husband, who is a Stake Patriarch, stated more than once that; "Oh I didn't know that or I didn't understand that concept in that way." He is very knowledgeable in the scriptures so I compliment you on your presentations. We enjoy watching and gaining more understanding from your lessons. Thank you!
Thank you for the very kind note! And I love the word Patriarch = Father (pater) leader (archos). :)
I cannot express how grateful I am for both of your knowledge. This episode is a clear, and distinct answer to my prayers. You are servants of the Lord here on earth and I appreciate you so very much. Thank You!
We sure appreciate you, Lacie, and your regular thoughtful posts!
Truly love each and every week of the Insights. My wife and I can truly feel the spirit when you both are sharing with us the insights from each week. You always give us background and also something to think about in our own lives each week. We hope that both of you will continue to do this as we go to Doctrine & Covenants next year. Please don't stop. We look forward to this every week to enhance our studies.
We plan to continue these videos through D&C, and then hopefully OT and NT.
@@taylorhalverson3052 That is great news. We support you 100%
You are amazing, I love studying the scriptures with you. Thank you !
Thanks for your love of the scripture!
Wonderful insights and analogies. Thanks so much.
You are most welcome!
HOPE. Thank you for your beautiful talents. Very appreciated! Love you guys!!
Thank you DeeAnna!
I appreciate the moments where Zeezrom's name crops up. It is special to me in some quiet way & if I could I would thank him or maybe thank Mormon.
:)
I have listened to several President Benson today and they relate to this day!
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for that thought...I always pray that I am so grateful for the scriptures and the gospel...nothing wrong with that but I need to fine tune it to why...because they help me understand and know my Savior!
Thanks for the thought!
Love the teachings, and your testimony; thanks a lot.
Thanks for watching!
Such an awesome lesson , I love the Celestial cycle!!Thanx so much!
I love that part, too!
Thank you for your wonderful insights.
We sure do appreciate you, Richard!
Just a personal thought on the cross over of the Lamanites becoming more righteous than the Nephites. I wasn't raised in the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I didn't grow up understanding gospel things and made many mistakes, committed grievous sins, and had a hard life. When I was introduced to the church I had my own personal experiences that I could look back on. My life was spared on more than one occasion by our Savior, Jesus Christ. I could see so clearly the stark contrast of my life without following Christ's teachings and one with Jesus in my life. He was always there for me even when my own behavior didn't warrant His love and mercy.
