This episode was about how the Lord’s house is a house of order and that revelation for the church comes through the prophet only. I talked about how cool it is that we can receive personal revelation & also talked about how easy it is for Satan to deceive us. But it’s ok, just repent!

This episode contains two parts. The first 25 minutes are thoughts on this week’s lesson. The second half is part of Season 1, Episode 3, about the Christmas Nativity. I thought it might be nice to play it with your family as you get out your nativity this year. The prophet has asked us to try to find ways the Lord speaks to us. This little part of the lesson may just help you find the way he talks to you.
