Summary

When Moroni visits Joseph Smith one of the primary messages he delivers (repeatedly) is that, as Joseph explained, "God had work for me to do". That pattern--God giving His children a work to do--extends both backwards and forwards through history. In this episode we ask ourselves the question, "What is the work that God has for me to do?" and study together just what that work will (and won't) entail.

1:04.4	But I've had a blast studying this this week.
1:07.4	And I've been really touched by how relevant it's been for me and I hope that's
1:12.8	what comes across as we discuss this together.

1:31.2	This quote seems so fitting.
1:33.6	On this night that we're recording, they're certifying the results of the election in Congress.
1:44.0	And of course, even though it's 2021, the results of the election in Congress.
1:52.4	And of course, even though it's 2021, it feels like a very 2020 thing, that there's riots and there's chaos and there's contention.
