Post by Helam – I had never given much thought to the kind of experience it was a hundred years ago when King Mosiah (King Benjamin’s father) left this land and united his people with my people in the land of Zarahemla. Of course I wasn’t born yet, so I had very little interest until…
Lemhi wants us to do a Moses.
Post by Helem – This is probably the most interesting few days of my life. It looks like we are going to do a Moses tomorrow. What I mean by that is, we are going to be instruments in God’s hands to deliver his people. That’s the way King Lemhi puts it. Following our few…
After 2 days in prison Lemhi sets us free.
Post by Helem – We have just been released having spent our first two days in the land of Nephi is prison. The King who appears to be the grandson of Zeniff just happened to be the first one we came upon when we journeyed from our camp on the hill overlooking Shilom. This King…
Ammon leads us to the Land of Nephi
Post by Helem- King Mosiah selected 16 of us to take this journey into the wilderness in an effort to learn about those who left Zarahemla so many years ago to possess the land of our first inheritance. There are 4 of us that are descendants of Zarahemla, my brother Ammon, who is our leader,…

No more disposition to do evil?
Post by Heloram – It would be easy to give credit to my father for the great changes that took place following his great speech from the tower, if not for the fact the people – I mean all the people immediately gave credit to the Spirit of the Lord Omnipotent. Following the speech as…

They recognized their own carnal state and desired with all their hearts to receive forgiveness of their sins and to have their hearts purified….
The Natural Man is an Enemy of God
Post by Heloram – The glad tidings of great joy of which my father spoke brings so much hope, yet it carried with it a warning to those who fail to exercise the faith unto repentance. For me, my father’s speech raises a few points as well as questions. 1. There is hope for those…
Glad tidings of great joy.
