This is the last episode of all four years of Come Follow Me. In this episode, I talk about the changes I saw in myself through studying and testifying every week for four years. Then I share your feelings and what the Come Follow Me program did for you. Your testimonies are powerful. This program was a blessing from our Father in Heaven to all of us! I believe that studying this way helped us remain strong and committed to the gospel of Jesus Christ. What a miraculous gift.
This is the second half of last week’s lesson. It’s pretty on forgiveness. Maybe that’s a good thing to think about this Holiday season. What gift can you give the Savior? Forgive.
This is the first half of the lesson about Haggai and Zechariah. I only reference Haggai in this first half. Be all in, people! It just makes your life easier.
This is the first of three Christmas podcasts. Enjoy! If you want to read the book, it is, “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever,” by Barbara Robinson
This Episode includes my quick thoughts on Jonah and TWO repeat Episodes from Season 1 about giving. Such good things to listen to this holiday season. Happy Thanksgiving!!
This episode talks about these two prophets, Amos and Obadiah. They were just regular guys that were called to do and say some hard things. They warned us to seek the Lord and to be careful not to get to “at ease” in our lives. Obadiah added that we should go to temples for our dead and be their “Saviors on Mount Zion.”
This Episode is about Hosea and how the Lord compares all of us to Gomer. The Lord loves us and wants to extend mercy to every single one of us! Don’t ever forget that!

Melanie,
I love to listen to your podcast on my lunch hour at work. You are so inspiring with your great stories and to help me remember that I am important in the Saviors eyes even when my world is upside down and it feels like I’m not. Thank you for what you do!
You and your sister are so great together! I do believe Heavenly Father has a sense of humor:)
You help remind me to find answers to ALL questions in the scriptures. I have been a listener since the beginning. I know I was lead to you. You truly speak my language and I feel I can relate to “the way you teach.” 😉 air quotes
Thanks!
