Hello and welcome to Not So Molly Mormon podcast. Today for probably the first time I think ever, it's just me in this introduction.'m Katie hello thanks for being here today we're

bringing you the second part of Jake's story so if you haven't listened to last week's

episode go back listen to that not so Petered, and this is the second hour of his conversation with us.

So we hope you enjoy. I think you will. It's a lot of fun. He's great and his story is so wonderful.

So here we go. Enjoy.

Oh, so I can remember, this is such a weird moment for me.

Like I was at the MTC practicing my discussions with my companion.

And we were talking about the Book of Mormon and how it's like, it says word for word,

we believe that Jesus Christ came to America and blah, blah, blah, like that kind of thing.

And I was like, I remember looking at that, saying it, looking at it and then looking up on my companion being like, wait, what?

Wait, we believe, we're about to go tell people that Jesus came to America.

For some reason even

as a true blue Mormon like that never clicked in my brain until then that it was like wait

he came America like because I don't know if maybe I just didn't pay attention or what like

maybe it just didn't like click to click to me to, like, America.

Like, because they always talk about it just being, like, sailed across the sea to this land.

And then they never really even, like, come out and say it was America until, you know, or maybe they did.

I feel like when you learn about it. Yeah, it's like, it's almost just kind of like brushed over like, well, of course, or maybe they did. I feel like when you learn about it.

Yeah, it's like, it's almost just kind of like brushed over like, well, of course, like Jesus was here.

And this is like the promising and whatever.

But I think when it's worded in a way, that's like, Jesus came to the Americas after he died.

You're kind of like, wait, hold on a second.
