Savannah Wooden: The Physical Healing Power of God

Savannah Wooden was in high school when, after years of struggling with seizures, she made the difficult decision to have brain surgery that, if successful, would cure her seizures. The surgery was, by that measure, very successful, but in the years since, Savannah has struggled with the byproducts of the surgery. Even then, she can see that the power of the priesthood invited healing into her life that otherwise may not have been possible.

2 Nephi 1–2: Compound

This week’s Come, Follow Me section is relatively short—but not at all short on doctrine. The prophet Lehi’s final words are packed with so much eternal truth. We'll focus on listening and learning by the Spirit as we study together from 2 Nephi 1–2.

Enos–Words of Mormon: Personal

There are formative moments in all of our lives. Some can be funny stories to share at parties, while others are intensely personal—reserved for telling only those closest to you. The succession of prophets we will read about in Enos through Words of Mormon carried on the tradition of recording stories, even if these leaders had to distill their whole lives into just a few sentences. We can learn from their examples how writing and testifying can change the lives of generations.

Melissa Inouye: Why Loving One Another Is More Than Bringing Casseroles

Identity, creating understanding, covenants, a worldwide Church, faith crises, change in the Church—these are topics Melissa Inouye, a scholar, addresses in an effort to explain how she has “found the fruits of this life (the life of a Latter-day Saint) to be worthwhile—costly, to be sure, but also rich and nourishing, a source of deep joy.”

Mosiah 7–10: Seer

It’s been a month since the last general conference. The messages are available to go back and read, and we’ve had an opportunity to let their words soak in. The last two weeks in Come, Follow Me also cover a conference of sorts when King Benjamin spoke to his people. Now, along with our study of Mosiah 7–10, we’ll relate this message on the power of prophets to the most recent words from our living prophets and general authorities today.

Unnamed Women in the Book of Mormon: Sariah and her Daughters

The scriptures are filled with stories of women once you start looking for them. In conjunction with our weekly Come, Follow Me podcast, this bonus series will explore accounts of women throughout the standard works, focusing on the Book of Mormon this year. Did you know that the only time the word “sisters” is mentioned in the Book of Mormon is when it refers to Nephi’s sisters? Today, we’ll talk about the sacrifices and faith of the women—named and unnamed—of the first family in the Book of Mormon and what we can learn from their examples.

Mosiah 11–17: Redeem

The Book of Mormon Art Catalog’s mission includes furthering scholarship on Book of Mormon art and increasing the ability for everyone to use a wide variety of images in our worship and study. We will look at several pieces depicting the events of this week’s Come, Follow Me study of Mosiah 11–17. Let the visuals bring the stories alive in new, detailed ways!

Favorite Magnify Moments of Living with Love

As we have been reading The Law of Love in Action for our bookclub this month, it’s brought to mind some of the great Magnify moments of the past 80 episodes. Next week, we’re having a Magnify book club episode where we’ll discuss all things Law of Love IN ACTION. But today, we thought it would be great to pull some clips from our past favorite episodes and how the women of Magnify have been living the law of love.

Jill Geigle: Preparing Pornography-Resistant Families

Jill Geigle has dedicated a great deal of time throughout her life to preparing children and families to face the challenges of a modern world. Specifically, she is passionate that, because all of us will come into contact with pornography at some point, we should prepare our families to be pornography-resistant rather than seeking to protect them from pornography. On this week’s episode, Jill shares with us four principles that will help you implement this preparation in your own home.
