Hi there, welcome to Don't Miss This, a scripture study podcast with Dave Butler and Grace Freeman.

Each week, we point out things in the scriptures that we love and think you don't want to miss.

Thanks for listening.

Well, howdy, I'm Dave Butler. I'm Grace Freeman. Welcome to Don't miss this. You thought it was a rodeo when we started with a howdy. You forgot to say our scriptor study class. You know people are so confused. Our scripture study class is not a rodeo. Yeah. Well, it's rodeo season. Everybody, happy summer. I hope summer is going so awesome for everybody.

When does this one come out?

August 4th. Oh, my gosh. Way to look at that. Okay, we're filming in July, just to everybody knows. So that feels like more rodeo season. But August summer, we're in it. We're in summer. School starting. I was just thinking when I just saw August 10th on that, I said, oh my gosh, school starts like four days after that.

And I am filming this before Christ. School starting. I was just thinking when I just saw August 10th on that, I said, oh my gosh, school starts like four days after that.

And I am filming this before Christian has left. Jack is home from his mission. My son, Jack. Our house is so happy right now.

Christian is leaving on the end. So by the time this video comes out. We'll see if we let him leave.

By the time. By the time this video comes out. Exciting stuff. Summer's always so awesome. And summer's so hard, too. I hope you're giving yourself so much grace. Don't worry. August is here, which means schedules are coming back and everything. You can get back into a good study of scripture personally and with family and everything like that. So we have a couple. And it feels like a restart. It's like, okay, I can remake goals now. It's like a brand, it's like an extra new year. It is. It is. It's hard. It's hard to be a study year. So hope you gave yourself so much grace during summer. We do have a couple more weeks of summer of prayer, though, so that's exciting. So if you're just

new and don't know, we've been doing a principle of prayer every week throughout the summer. And I was actually thinking because, you know, if someone's just learning about it, they might want a fall of prayer. You know, like any season of life that you feel like, wait, I just want to focus on that. This is a great year to do it.

Every year's a great year to do it,

but particularly a year where every single section you feel like, wait, I just want to focus on that. This is a great year to do it. Every year's a

great year to do it, but particularly a year where every single section of the doctrine of

covenants, it just starts with a question. It starts with the need, it starts with the situation,

and there's a prayer. So let's give the summer of prayer principle first here at the very beginning.

And it comes from Section 85, and it comes from the

background of Section 85 that we'll get to in just a second. But before we learn anything,

well, maybe this helps. I don't know. No, I won't give the background. Yeah. First, I'm just

going to say what happens. This comes from Joseph's journal, and he just says that he learns, quote, by the still

small voice that the leaders in Missouri don't know what to do.

So there's a problem that's happening in Missouri that we're going to tell you about in just a
