Family Proclamation: Beyond Come Follow Me

December 12, 2021 by tompettit 1 Comment

This week, we study the doctrine found within The Family: A Proclamation to the World. In this week’s episode of Beyond Come Follow Me, I share the interesting background story of how the document came about, and how it further proves the blessing of having a living prophet. Plus, I share the stories of the Saints leaving Nauvoo and heading West.

I am starting a new video series called “Getting to Know Them”. In each video, which will be about 90 minutes long, I will focus on a well known individual from Church History. I won’t do a boring biographical sketch of that person, but I will spend that time sharing with you the fun, uplifting, exciting, and inspiring stories that made that individual so great. I am not going to just put up a picture behind me and tell stories, but rather, I am going to take you to the actual locations where these people did great things. It will be a virtual tour of all the great Church History Sites.

Week 50: Beyond Come Follow Me

December 5, 2021 by tompettit Leave a Comment

Elder L. Tom Perry said the Articles of Faith teach “the essential doctrines of the gospel of Jesus Christ and are among the most important and certainly the most concise statements of doctrine in the Church”. Understanding the history behind the two revelations known as Official Declarations 1 & 2 might help us understand why the previous Church policies were altered, and help strengthen or testimonies today of living prophets, seers, and revelators.
