Another Testament of Jesus Christ Podcast

In Alma Chapter 7 of the Book of Mormon, Alma shares one of the most beautiful teachings about Jesus Christ and His Atonement. He tells the people of Gideon that the Savior will come to earth, be born of Mary, and experience our pains, sicknesses, temptations, and struggles so that He will know exactly how to help us. I love this chapter because there is so much we can learn from it! We talk about preparing for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ and what that really means for us today. I also share a personal experience from a trip to California that reminded me why we each need to be spiritually prepared. No one can do that for us! Then we get into Alma 7:11–12, where Alma teaches us why Jesus Christ suffered the things He did. I think these are some of the most comforting verses in the Book of Mormon because they remind us that the Savior doesn't just know what we're going through. He actually understands. We also break down Alma 7:23–24, where Alma gives us a whole list of Christlike attributes to work on, including humility, patience, gentleness, faith, hope, charity, and gratitude. I love looking at what these things actually mean and how we can apply them in our everyday lives. And finally, Alma ends with a beautiful blessing of peace, not just for the people, but for their families, homes, lands, and everything they have. What a great reminder that we can ask God to bless and protect every part of our lives. There is so much to learn from Alma 7, and I hope as we study this chapter together, you'll find something that helps you grow closer to Jesus Christ. Scriptures studied: Alma 7 & Matthew 24:36.

In Alma 6, we see Alma establish order in the Church, call priests and elders to watch over the people, and remind us that the word of God is available to ALL. We also talk about the incredible power of fasting and mighty prayer—not just for ourselves, but for the people we love who may not yet know God. And because this chapter is short, I'm sharing something extra special at the end—my son Elder Campbell's missionary farewell talk before leaving to serve in the New Zealand Wellington Mission. ❤️ Lets study Alma 6, and talk about caring for one another, fasting with purpose, praying for others, and helping bring souls to Jesus Christ.

Alma 5 is FULL of questions that honestly made me stop and look at my own life. Have you experienced a mighty change of heart? Can people see the image of Christ in you? And if you were called home tomorrow…would you be ready to meet God? We're talking about repentance, being spiritually born again, using the Atonement of Jesus Christ DAILY, recognizing the voice of the Good Shepherd, and what the "fruit" of our lives says about who we are really following. But one of my biggest AHA moments comes in Alma 5:46 when Alma tells us HOW he gained his own testimony—he fasted and prayed for MANY DAYS. This verse is FIRE! If you are searching for truth, revelation, answers from God, or direction in your life, Alma gives us a powerful pattern for receiving personal revelation. I also share a very personal experience of fasting for two days while my husband was paralyzed in the hospital and what that experience taught me about the power of fasting and prayer. Alma 5 is ultimately a wake-up call: Jesus Christ can change our hearts, wash us clean, and bring us home—but are we choosing to follow Him?

What happens when pride starts creeping into the Church? In Alma 4, the Nephites go from humility and thousands of baptisms to costly apparel, riches, contention, inequality, and pride—and their behavior actually becomes a stumbling block to others. We'll talk about separating the perfect gospel of Jesus Christ from imperfect people, where our testimony is truly anchored, and why Alma ultimately gives up political power to focus on something even more powerful: the word of God and pure testimony. Join me as we study Alma 4 in the Book of Mormon and look for the message God may have for us today.

In this episode of Another Testament of Jesus Christ Podcast, we're studying Alma 3 in the Book of Mormon and looking at the aftermath of the terrible war between the Nephites, Lamanites, and Amlicites. One of the biggest themes in Alma 3 is the idea of a mark—the Amlicites deliberately mark their foreheads to show who they have chosen to follow. We'll talk about the difference between the mark and the curse in the Book of Mormon, why the Amlicites marked themselves, and how outward symbols can represent something much deeper about our identity and allegiance. I also share some thoughts about Native American face paint and the different ways markings have been used to represent identity, belonging, protection, remembrance, and preparation for battle. But the question that really stayed with me was: What do we choose to mark ourselves with? Who do our choices show that we are following? That question led me to think about missionaries who willingly put the name of Jesus Christ on their chest every day. So at the end of this episode, I sit down with my daughter, Sister Tacoma Campbell, who is serving in the Philippines Lipa Mission. We talk about what it means to carry the Savior's name, finding strength when God asks us to do hard things, the power of change through Jesus Christ, and what the people of the Philippines have taught her about faith. Alma 3 is ultimately a chapter about agency. We choose who we follow, which voices we listen to, and little by little those choices shape who we become. Come study Alma Chapter 3 with me as we talk about the Book of Mormon, agency, identity, missionary work, and what it really means to choose Jesus Christ.
