Hello, we're Scott and Maureen Proctor, and this is Meridian Magazine's Come Follow Me podcast, where today we'll look at the longest section in the

Doctrine and Covenants, section 124, in a lesson called A House Unto My Name.

Before we begin, we have a great Christmas gift idea for you.

I have been photographing the Holy Lands of the Ancient Old Testament and the New Testament for many, many years, and I have picked some of my favorite photographs and created this year's Come Follow Me Old Testament

Wall Calendar for 2026. Not only does it have the weekly Come Follow Me lessons to keep you on track

Give the calendar to your friends and family, your ministering brothers and sisters,

and take care of a chunk of your Christmas giving list all at one stop.

And we have flat rate shipping so you can order anywhere from one to 20 calendars for the same shipping cost.
