Post by King Lamoni’s Father I ponder on my reactions to two recent events in my life. Both have eternal ramifications but mostly they demonstrate my own fallen state. I am considered the great king of the Lamanites. When I held a great feast for my sons and all the lower kings, my own son…

The Great Spirit Created all Things
Post by Aaron – Whereas 500 years ago, our father, the Prophet Lehi taught there must be opposition in all things, I wish to illustrate the truth in his prophetic declaration. Wherein we suffered much in Middoni, we gloried in the blessing of God in the land of Nephi. After we departed Middoni, the Spirit…
Christ will Redeem all Mankind
Post by Lamoni’s Queen My participation in the conversion of our household is a miracle. Regardless of my feelings toward our enemies, my concerns for my husband, King Lamoni deepened once I learned the Nephite Ammon was more powerful than my husband’s army. He could not be slain, I was told. My servants told me…
A cunning Nephite that Ammon is
Post by King Lamoni – Lamanite King I share the following with you emotionally conflicted. Consider blending embarrassment, guilt, pride, remorse, relief, and the deepest gratitude that a living human can experience. Now you have my current emotional status. I just stood against my own father, the very king of many Lamanite kingdoms. If you…

Believest thou in the Great Spirit?

Are you that Great Spirit?
I think King Lamoni commanded me to care for his sheep with his other servants because it would keep me out of trouble while he had more important things to do. He would deal with the Nephite later. The king’s father was preparing a great feast for his sons, the kings of various lands. King…
Trusting in the power of God
Post by Ammon Certainly it was in jest but, maybe not, knowing my brother Aaron, but once we were able to release him from bondage in Midian and I shared my experience in the land of Ishmael with King Lamoni and his people, practically his first question was, “had you seen the king’s daughter before…
The Vilest of Sinners
Post by Ammon – Son of King Mosiah – Missionary having served fourteen years in the Land of Nephi among the Lamanites. My brothers and I were, as Alma said, “the vilest of sinners.” That sounds dramatic on the surface. After all, the only thing we did was destroy people’s testimonies of our Savior, and…
Astonishment and God’s work seem to go together.
Post by Ammon – Son of King Mosiah, brother of Omnor, Aaron, Himni Astonishment seems to be a word often used as we share our experiences in this blog. Here’s another time I wish I had a better word. It’s been fourteen years since my last entry, and if you can look back that far,…
