In this episode Lamar and Kerry explore the sometimes confusing storyline of this part of the Book of Mormon. They talk about the story of people moving from Zarahemlah back to the land of Nephi-Lehi, and some of the interesting cultural currents that stem They talk about lessons to learn from those groups, and the especially explore the teachings about what it means to be a seer. They discuss some of the historical details that make these stories come to life and help us learn from them. They also look at what we can learn about Abinadi from this reading in preparation for next week's reading.
