Hey everyone. This is Taylor Halverson from Book of Mormon Central. We've had a lot of requests to add our weekly

Come Follow Me videos with myself and Tyler Griffin to our podcast. We are very excited to do this. However, just know that we use a lot of visuals in our videos. So if you ever want to see the visuals, check out Book of Mormon Central on YouTube. We hope you enjoy.

I'm Taylor.
