Hello, my friends. Welcome to another episode of Follow Him. My name's Hank Smith. I'm your host. I'm here with my curious co-host, John by the way.

John, welcome back.

We're still in First Nephi, follow him.

Absolutely, and I'm still curious.

Yeah, you are very curious.

At least I didn't call you round, right?

So... At least I didn't call you round, right? So, John, as we wrap up first Nephi, what do you think of, what are you looking forward to today?

Well, I kind of love that here the journey resumes, because we have some storyline and we kind of stop and take a break for some doctrine and there's doctrine in the storyline too, but it's fun to see okay, where are they and now they're going to resume the journey and what's going to happen. So I'm looking forward to that.

Me too, me too.

John, we are joined by one of my favorite people on planet Earth.

His name is Dr. Tyler, Tyler, what are we looking forward to today?

We're in First Nephi 16 through the end, right, of First Nephi 22?

Yeah, the thing I'm looking forward to is finding the Savior on every single page and finding us

as he's offering to help us on our journey

as we allow Lehi and Ishmael's family's journey to kind of become three-dimensional, come off the page,

and as we journey with them, we may not be in a desert exactly like they are, but we're in a desert. We may not have a Lehona that looks like Lehi's, but we've got a Leahona.

We may not have the struggles of a broken bow and all these other issues that they're going to face and having to build a ship.

We're not down there in that same location, but boy oh boy. We're building all kinds of ships that we've never

built before and we need help from the Savior and he's

going to help us. And then get excited, we get our first introduction to those two chapters

of Isaiah that Nephi introduces to us. It's just it's beautiful.

I'm excited today as you look at the ups and downs of this family's experience.
