Thank you once again for bringing the spirit closer to me.these videos are so great and very much needed for these days
@@elainemcilmoyle8847 We sure do appreciate you and your encouragement and enthusiasm!
Thanks so much. Ever since church was closed. It has been challenging for me. I live alone. So having these wonderful discussions have made ALL the difference for me.
I pray that you all stay healthy and safe. Again, thank you for doing what you're doing.
Thank you for your prayers!
Me too! I feel the same way. These video lessons have blessed me so much.
What an amazing quote by Patricia Holland - I can see why Tyler stated it is his favorite quote. Feeling the foundational liberty we SAY we believe in, to be who we truly are, to feel comfortable and empowered in our own skin, is something that we all yearn to feel - and maybe like you discussed we only get there by a lifetime of doing the repetitive things a little better day after day. I read a comment recently (in a George Handley book) where he says it's so important to remember that "the fold is not the mold". There isn't a one and only way to be a good disciple of Jesus Christ. I love your weekly lessons - thank you!!
Beautiful insights Lisa. Thanks for making time to share!
Thank you for sharing "the fold is not the mold."
You two are incredible teachers. I love each week! Thank you!
We hope you continue to find great joy in the gospel!
All the spiritual teachers are CON MEN: UG Krishnamurti
I look forward to these every week!! They bring so many more insights to my scripture study and to Come Follow Me! Thank you!!
We are so pleased to hear this! Many blessings.
You two compliment each other so well as you teach these wonderful lessons. Thank you!
We've been friends and close collaborators for a decade. I have tremendous respect for and trust in Tyler. He is fully committed to the cause of God!
OMG!! Thanks Tyler that's exactly how I've been feeling for so long. I'm the only member in my family. But even as a convert I have a lot of those experiences. Thank you for affirming I'm not alone in that experience. (time 29:00)
We are so happy that this made a difference! God knows each of us and is withus.
Thanks Taylor your so awesome and love the way you teach I learn something every time 😊
Oh thank you so much for this lesson that you guys have presented to us! I love it ! Just what I need in my life. I'm so thankful I was humbled enough to really listen to your words and to go back and read these things in Alma and stop being so hard on myself. Thank you Taylor and Tyler.
I I know for a fact that heavenly father has provided you to be such awesome teachers at this time in our lives thank you! ♥️♥️👍👍
God does love you. All of us! He has sent His Son to remind us that we are saved through Him. We simply need to show our love and devotion to God and as we do, we'll find ourselves on the path of salvation.
Alma 5 is one of my favorite chapters. In alma. It brought me out of. My dark past. You two are inspiration to my family. My parents decided to do. Come follow me. As an family sunday school class. Using zoom. Even my sister who is inactive. Started to take interest now. The book of mormon is real. You two bring the book to life. It makes more since now. I grew up in the lds church. Served mission, former truck driver. Now I'm home more. Thank you, for doing this. It helped me. To understand the scriptures better.
Awesome note! And I've always wanted to drive a truck...I need to take the time to learn.
You are teaching my husband and me so much about the Book of Mormon. Every week I gain something new that I hadn't quite thought of before. My testimony is growing over this amazing book when listening to your insights. Sometimes I feel you are speaking directly to me. I thank you both for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you Sandy for this beautiful note! We hope you continue to experience great joy in your scripture study.
I can't express how much I appreciate you two, you bring the Book of Mormon alive for me every week. Thank you so much!!
Excellent to hear this!
Thank you so much for the beautiful lessons! You are giving such a gift to everyone that watches!
We pray before each video that these lessons will touch viewers hearts and lives, to help them feel God's love.
These lessons are inspired and extremely helpful. Thank you for your preparation and effort to get these out to us.
We love to share and are so happy that this is benefit to others.
Love the part about in vs at Jerusalem regarding where Jesus was born and where Nephi’s family lived.
Thank you for that beautiful lesson. I really needed to hear that today! And i loved the Patricia Holland quote!
Yeah, that is an encouraging note.
Thank you for making a safe place for us to study and learn. Having a measure of scrupulosity, I always know that I can listen freely to you and turn the sound up, that I won't have to talk myself back into rationality, but be uplifted, and my heart turned more to my Saviour and feel how His is turned to me. Just thank you.
We love this comment! Thanks.
I know I was so much blessed because of Alma's words that I need to contact again those missionaries who gave to me The Book of Mormon. I told them I want to continue investigating the church.. It's nearly 13 years now that I never had any regrets being a member of Lds church..
Heavenly Father loves me so much. He knew my personal struggles to really understand The Book of Mormon. Years back I always try to finish reading it from cover to cover.. But I know I really need help from anybody to really understand those chapters and verses.
I testified that God really answers prayers in His due time.. These great teachers really helps me to better understand The Book of Mormon and I am so lucky with bonus( they're also teaching me the meaning of those prefixed words and so on with matching vocabulary on my part)..It's like perfect 😇😇
Really learned a lot from you Brother Taylor and Tyler.. I am worrying now what if there's no internet😔
I am always grateful for the two of you.
Thank you for this beautiful note, Venus! Many blessings to you in your study and learning.
That was so deep! Yes, you both help me to feel encouraged, and to feel God's love. I listen to these videos over and over!
We love you Brethren, We appreciate your time and talents in teaching the gospel in such a spirit that all grow.
Thanks for watching, Brad.
My daughter was 26 and had a diagnoses of breast cancer , and it was fast growing. I couldnt stop crying. I knew I couldnt help her with it all and her children if I couldnt stop crying. I started fasting and praying to be able to for get my pain and to bless her to live. But it was a battle with Satan to keep from feeling so sorry for myself for him telling me she was going to die. I even roll down the window in the car hunt housing to get out finally one night about a weekend I had a dream after saying very wedding prayer, I dream that I literally had a fight with Satan and kicked him out. The next day I went to my daughter's house I had this feeling the words just thing to go through my body same she's going to be okay but in that message reading between the lines I knew that didn't mean she was going to live. But I was able to come to terms with it I'm just tell her all that I could and enjoy the time that I had.
Nola, we love you. We admire your faith and faithfulness. May you feel God's tender mercies during these difficult times.
Thank you so much for this wonderful explanation from the lecture of this week! The monday evening is yours and the learning and deepening from the Guideline of our church💖👌🤗🌹
Glad you are enjoying this!
I love how with each lesson my understanding is added upon. Thank you. 😇
You are welcome, Deb.
I'm so grateful for the love and kindness you radiate!
I truly appreciate your insights and encouragement, your love of the Lord and the Joy you express! Thank you so much!
It took many years to feel the Joy IN the trials. And to share that Joy with those around me. I learned to dance without hearing
the music so much. But you both help with that...
This is beautiful, thank you for sharing!
Thank you. I was so happy when I got this notification today!! As usual so many incredible things my eyes are opened to and so many wonderful insights from you both.
We were excited to release this one!
Love your teaching style brothers!
Thanx for this sweet lesson: Balm for the soul!
:)
Thanks so much for your inspired words. Greetings from Bolivia.
me encanta hermosa Boliva!
Thank you so much for another wonderful lesson! You both have made me decide to go back and reread Alma 5-7 again and ponder everything you have said. Have a great week!
Awesome! I'm sure the Lord loves it when we desire to study the scriptures more deeply.
Thanks for the great lessons. My wife and I use your "Insights" to supplement our weekly readying. It is testimony to me that the Come Follow Me program was truly inspired. I also use the Reading Plan from Scriptures Plus as a great supplement as well.
Thanks for sharing all this great news, Van!
Again I´d like to thank both of you for the Spirit that I feel when I watch these videos. Thanks for your testimony of The Lord Jesus Christ and of The Book of Mormon. May the Lord keep blessing you in all your efforts.
We feel you appreciation!
precious Guys!! one of my favorites tooooooo!!!!
yes. spread light and goodness
always!!
thanks so much!
may God bless you and yours always!!
thanks for your teachings..
fabulous as always!
Many thanks Donna for this kind note. We appreciate you for making time to share your thoughts with us!
Thank you so much for your lessons. As a word nerd I especially appreciate Taylor's contribution. It helps me connect with the scriptures. Alma 5 is a difficult chapter for those of us who struggle with depression. Over the years I have come to realize that if I can't feel to sing the song of redeeming love right NOW, it may not be my "fault", and if I REMEMBER the Lord's goodness and mercy in the past, and that there are sunny days amidst the gloom, then I have hope and can persevere. Wendy Ulrich calls it Spiritual Nebraska. All that to say, thank you Tyler for teaching Alma 5 with gentleness and context. Sometimes my EKG machine is faulty, and I just have to be patient in my afflictions until it gets a tune up. I seek the Lord and ask for him to help me see clearly..to see Christ in ME when I can't see it on my own. 💗
Beautiful note and encouraging insights. Thanks for sharing Brandi!
In the last five months as I have allowed you to teach me through the Come follow me program I have come to understand the scriptures better and I have come to love you both, You make the Book of Mormon come to live for me. Thank you each for being who you are and sharing your knowledge of this book with all who watch.
What an awesome note! Thank you Joan for joining with us!
Such a powerful message!
Not only are you teaching the principle that we are all different and we should appreciate our differences, but you have set the example.
Please tell me that you’ll continue these lessons even when this pandemic is over. 🙏🏻
I go walking on my lunch break, it’s crazy how my mind can wander. Both negative and positive thoughts swirl through my mind. I had an idea to plug my earphones into my phone and listen to positive messages. I listen to conference talks, you guys, and other gospel centered speakers. The difference is amazing! I’ve received personal revelation on how to deal with various challenges, the spirit speaks to me as I listen! I’m so grateful, thank you🙏🏻!
You’re Great!! You help me to see Alma 5 in another point of view that I saw before. Thank you 🙏
Glad to hear.
Thank you for this beautiful lesson. It truly lifted my spirit and strengthened my desire to follow Alma’s counsel to come unto Christ for true peace and relief as I repent and receive His grace.
I just want to say again how much, my hubby and I love listening to you both teach us!! Thank you again! Susan & David from Indiana.
I used to live in Bloomington, Indiana for 5 years. I call my time in Indiana my Zion time! I met my wife and we started our lives together. Much love to you.
A timely powerful reminder of our very personal and intimate quest as we individually journey through mortality, one by one. Our travel includes many challenges, struggles, storms, whirlwinds and successes too! Indeed, our mortal quest, is part of a marvellous eternal adventure, one eternal round, without beginning or end. Thank you for elevating my thinking again, to personalise all of the questions in Alma 5. I know that small incremental changes, over the long term - drop by drop - has significant, long lasting impact - "that" is certain!
We always love hearing and learning from you Daryl!
Thank you again Bro Tyler and Taylor. I’ve learned a lot from the lesson. I’m so grateful I found your video . I get excited and look forward to watch your teachings. This is such a blessing to me. You guys are amazing and gifted... thank you for sharing your God given talent😇😇😇
We are really excited to be able to share the gospel with everyone!
I love your insight to the Book of Mormon. I love your enthusiasm as you teach. I love listening to both of you each week.... almost disappointed when each lesson is over and look forward to the next week. Thank you so very much for sharing your testimony and your love of the savior. It strengthens me more than you’ll ever know. May God bless you both for your unselfishness.
Thank you for this encouraging note!
Thank you very much for nourishing my spiritual needs ,especially during these hard times.
We so appreciate you and your encouragement!
As I study the Book of Mormon and listen to your presentations, I have found myself thinking much more of my Saviour and the things I still need to do to become more like Him. I am so inspired always when I listen to you.
Beautiful to hear this, Anne. This is our hope!
Thank you again so much brethren I really enjoy watching these videos every week with my family thanks for bringing deeper insight into the book of Mormon and helping me think of things that I have not thought of before
Thank you Jon for the love of the gospel you share with your family!
I think this was my favorite video from you gentlemen! Thank you so much!
We are really glad to hear this!
I need to take the time and thank both of you for these wonderful videos. I am grateful for the truths you both teach and for your insights. Watching your videos, along with studying the Church's curriculum has opened the scriptures up to me in new and inspiring ways. Thank you for taking the time and effort to share these.
Thank you Teri for taking time to study and read and to share!
I want to know how 44 people disliked this video? Two incredible, knowledgable, humble teachers doing their best to provide insight on a weekly basis about gospel topics and the weekly Come Follow Me lessons. No matter, go forth and continue the excellent job you do each and every week. I feel uplifted and so much better every week I listen to these videos. I love these brethren even though I likely will never met them. Respect!
Yeah, there is opposition in all things! ha ha.
Thank you such Tyler and Taylor, I’m learning so much of your teachings and have become closer to Christ. Love the Book of Mormon.
Awesome to hear this!
Love your sensor of humor Tyler! :) great lesson thank you!!!
Yeah, he makes me laugh a lot.
Wow very nice presentation and powerful message. I love it.
Awesome, thanks for letting us know!
Just found this channel. It's helped me so much I really needed this thank you 💙
Awesome to hear this!
Once again you have open the eyes of my understanding and I am grateful. Thank you.
The gospel is so full of light and love! Thank you for spending time learning more.
I just want to thank you. You are an amazing teacher. I am learning so much. I was born in the church but left when my parents divorced. I came back 31 years later. Recently sealed. I can’t thank you enough for explaining the gospel so clearly.
Thank you for the love you have for God and your desire to live and share goodness! Many blessings to you.
Both of you have made a great difference in my life! I love to learn from you every week.
Thank you Aracely. And we love sharing gospel insights each week! :)
We always look forward to your Come Follow Me video every week. Thank you very much!
You are welcome and we appreciate you!
Another fantastic and insightful lesson. I look forward to learning from you and the spirit each week! Thank you for your preparation and for your deep, abiding testimonies. I am always amazed at God’s timing -even to the very thoughts I’ve been having and how they correlate with the scripture blocks and my personal studies in grad school and more! God is good, ALL the time! 🙏🏼💖
Awesome thoughts!
This is my favorite Come follow me site! I learn so much from you two. Thank you!
You are most welcome!
I love this lesson, so much to learn. You are great teachers, so thankful to have found you
Thanks for watching!
I am so very grateful for your inspiring lessons where I feel the spirit witness that what you are teaching is true.
We are grateful for who you are. Thank you for spending time with us.
Thank you brethren for your inspiring and educating lesson. Much appreciated.
Are you are appreciated, too!
Thank you very much for helping me appreciate even more Alma 5 and counting my blessings and to choose in which team I want to be, and whose "salary" I look forward to receive. Take care!
Beautiful note!
Thank you for my weekly nourishment.
Thank you for weekly being so generous!
Thank you. I’m learning more and more every week.
That has been our hope and desire!
I like to view your videos on Sunday, after we’ve completed the week of personal and family scripture studies. You just don’t disappoint! It’s more than the insights, information or knowledge obtained. It’s the love and sweet Spirit I feel going through the scripture verses alongside you two. I notice how I’ve been able to find some of the things you teach on my own and also how much I still get to learn by being a subscriber. I hope you continue making these every year.
That you Merari. We hope to continue these through the D&C year :)
T&T Brothers, Engaging Scripture Block (Alma 5-7) this week with Chapter 5 "having more questions than any other chapter in all of our Canonized Scripture." If I may, I would like to add some supportive information regarding Alma 7:10. I was fortunate to take a RM Book of Mormon class from Reid Bankhead following my mission. I really enjoyed his class where he always used the phrase, "Ok, you Returned MIssionaries, remember Patience Job" when we got impatient and wanted to jump ahead.
Regarding Alma 7:10 and his explanation, "he shall be born of Mary AT Jerusalem." It was the first time I heard of the "Amarna Letters specifically EA 271 & EA 290 Circa 1365-1335 bc. At this specific reference point, it ALSO uses the phrase "At Jerusalem." Of course, Amarna is located in Egypt which I like to think of the language used by Lehi of Reformed Egyptian. However, I'm not sure if there is a tie in but it is sure interesting to ponder. Either way, the language used "At Jerusalem" was also used anciently and NOW YOU KNOW WHY !!
ha ha! Your use of "now you know why" gave me a good chuckle. Great story and reference. Thanks for sharing!
@@taylorhalverson3052 Thank you my friend. I had a sneaking suspicion you might like that !! Be Safe and Prosper !!
Thank you very much for sharing this video. It really helps me in my personal study of the scriptures.
Yes! That is the hope :)
Thank you for teach ing !! I not only learn of the Savior of God I have learned a lot about myself and I am so great ful !! Thank you
Thank you for letting us know!
Thank you, great lesson. See you both on the study on the Book of Mormon 🌷
Thanks for watching!
Thank you guys for your enlightening, edifying insights which have changed our study of BoM.
Thanks for the sharing!
That was a very strong quote in the first part, thanks for that. No wonder we can never really understand the full suffering of others. We can never compare, only to our own improvements, as you quoted after that, from Henry B Eyring.
Thanks for watching!
In my opinion, it is also extremely important that we get an answer from the Savior himself by asking him if we are living our lives in the manner that he accepts. He is a perfect judge where we can not perfectly judge ourselves.
Thanks for this insight!
Thank you for the wonderful lesson🙏🏽👌🏼❤️❤️ #comefollowme#
Glad this was valuable!
You guys are awsome..keep doing what you doing cos we are inspired by your teaching. I know that the Lord must have a place prepared for you guys in His Kingdom for your selfless service for taking time as you leave your family time behind to share this beautiful teaching with us.
Thanks for the kind words and our families are very supportive of our efforts in this cause!
Wow, so rich with "liken unto me." Took me a few hours to watch and absorb. So grateful. THANK YOU for addressing the cultural tendency over the pulpit to say, "It is ok to doubt." So grateful you brought that one very insidious piece of sophistry out in the open and put truth against it. Culture should not inform our thinking, the Lord must. Bless you.
I'm really glad that this made a difference!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for your preaching. The Holy Ghost is present. God bless you.
We pray before we do each video and we specifically pray that everyone will feel God's love, and the power of His spirit through the scriptures because of His Son.
Regardless of how we answer the first questions, the important one at the end is "will ye persist?" What we persist in doing will determine our end result, good or bad. Thanks for another great lesson.
That is a fabulous emphasis, thanks for sharing!
Again inspiring lesson, the beautiful quotes, thank you, I have still 10 minuten lessen to listen and almost sad that it is finished, fortunately next week
Thank you for your kindness and encouragement.
That was very insightful full. Thank you.
Thanks for spending time with us Elizabeth!
Great job guys. Thank you
Glad this is making a difference!
Another incredible lesson and insights thank you
Glad you enjoyed this!
I love this,easy to understand
Thank you Marie!
I love this! I’ve been thinking of that wrong roads video a LOT lately it’s been more relevant than normal in my life these days:)
We've all been on those roads and need help!
I love this !!!
Thanks Ruby!
Thank you.Wow!What an assurance!!!☺☺☺#watching from Mozambique,Africa✈#💖Philippines
Much love to you Racquel! Thanks for spending time with us!
@@taylorhalverson3052 thank you...Please include me in your prayers.
I love the Temple Recommend question response to "How am I doing Spiritually." Something to think about...Alma DID ask questions....We can keep track of where we stand spiritually when we ask ourselves QUESTions....A lot of people that do not live in Salt Lake City, call it the Salt Lake area....but when people actually live there, they distinguish the areas like Midvale, Murray, South Jordan....etc....So I can totally understand that Christ was born AT Jerusalem.
Great insights. We sure enjoy hearing your thoughts and ideas!
When Brother Halverson said this life is a test & wasn't meant to be easy is so very true. We all are born into various circumstances which are meant to test us whether it be a disability, personal relationships, issues with pride, the Word of Wisdom etc. not to mention living it today's world where we are dealing with the pandemic caused by the COVID-19 virus, & the recent riots, protests and civil direst consequent of the death of George Floyd. We can have peace in Christ by increasing our determination living the gospel of Christ and striving to minimalizing Satan's temptations in our lives. President Russel M. Nelson said it best when he said "The time is coming when those who do not obey the Lord will be separated from those who chose to do so (see D&C 86:1-7). Our safest insurance is to be worthy of admission to His holy House. the greatest gift you give to the Lord is to keep yourself unspotted from the world, worthy to attend his holy house. > HIs gift is to you will be the peace and security of knowing that you are worthy to meet Him Whenever that time comes. Therefore in conjunction to reading & studying the scriptures we must follow the living prophet our priesthood leaders and parents and none else.
Beautiful thoughts, Mark! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much
You are very welcome!
Thank you!!!
You bet!
What a great lesson!
Thank you Tracy.
Loved the quote from Sister Holland. So true! Also, here is the way I think of the part about the Savior being born at Jerusalem. First of all, Joseph Smith knew Jesus was born in Bethlehem. Another proof he didn't write it. Also, the Lord was helping the people of Alma know that Christ would be born in the Old world of their ancestors- which was called Jerusalem to them.
Spot on! :)
After the "question" I thought of the sacrament and how each week I ask myself how did the weak go for me?
Great thought!
Thank you thank you thank you! Obrigada obrigada obrigada. Hope to have Portuguese close captions soon 🙏🙏🙏
Yes, we are working on that with volunteers. :)
Thank You very much... i know that the Book of Mormon is true.
i also have downloaded already the Scripture plus
Keep on pursuing truth!
WISH I COULD SHARE YOUR INSIGHT IN SPANISH TO MY WARD HERE IN MEXICO.
We are working on translations in Spanish. centralldm.es/
We absolutely LOVE listening to and learning from your lessons each week!! They make everything we’ve studied more clear and come alive! Where can I find the talk by D. Todd Christofferson “Moral Agency“? I found “Moral Discipline, but couldn’t find the one you mention in this lesson.
I'll ask Tyler and get back to you.
