Summary

November 21-27

Jonah is much more than a fish story, but the story of a man who is cast down into a boat, down into the hull of the boat, down into a big fish, and at last, covered in seaweed in the utter darkness is rescued. We may see ourselves here when life bears down on us, and we know who the ultimate rescuer is.

0:00.0	Welcome our dear friends to Meridian Magazine's Come Follow Me podcast.
0:22.0	We're Scott and Maureen Proctor and today we're going to talk about those magnificent and
0:26.9	very interesting books, Jonah and Micah. In a lesson called, He Delighteth in Mercy. And we have with us
0:34.0	today one of our favorite guests who we love to have with us and that's Patrick Dane. Patrick is one of
0:40.4	our great friends and he is an institute teacher up in Logan at Utah State University. He has taught
0:48.2	many times at Education Week and in many diverse locations. He's a master teacher. He loves the
0:55.2	scriptures and we love working with him and discussing these things with him. So again welcome
1:01.4	Patrick to this podcast this week. Thank you very much. Grateful to be here. Thank you. Before we

1:28.4	We did. We were spending some time. In fact, it is our very first time to Oman to this
1:34.1	best candidate for where Nephi built the ship and it's in this very remote location and we had
1:39.2	these young boys who were going to pick us up after we'd been there for a couple of days and they

1:57.9	ticks. We had been through so many experiences and we were so tired and thirsty and the boys came
2:05.2	and picked us up and as we're going back out and you have to know you have to go about 10 to 12
2:10.1	kilometers by sea to get to one of the fishing villages where you can access your car so that
2:15.7	you can go back to the main area of civilization. So that particular day these boys picked us up
2:22.2	and we're heading back on the Arabian Sea. It's a beautiful, beautiful sea and as we're heading back,
