Hello and welcome to the Scripture Study Project, our podcast dedicated to helping you discover

the scriptures in a fresh way, invest your mind and heart into your personal study, and connect

to God in your everyday life. We are your host, Zach and Krista Horton,

and this week we are here to study in Doctrine and Covenants Section 93 with you.

I love the section. This is some of my favorites. I probably say that every week. Yeah,

I was just going to say, Zach, you're not allowed to have another favorite section because

you already said that last week.

Maybe it's similar. I mean, they have similar topics, Section 88, Section 93, a lot of light and truth.

And so maybe that's why I like it.

Wait, maybe you've said it three times in a row because I think you said it for 89, too.

Oh, well.

We'll have to go back and reference it to be sure.

But the... This one's really one of my favorites. I was just say the ultimate thing is it's his favorite and we're excited.

We say that every time.

Actually, I didn't say I'm excited this time, but we're okay to be here and excited.

But this section, like Zach said, is full of so much good stuff to study.

And the interesting thing about this section is that there's not a lot

of background as to how this section came to be. Joseph Smith had already finished the translation

of the New Testament, and this revelation then came a few months after that. And so most likely,

probably what he had been studying in the New Testament and then maybe reading and John spurred on some of these questions that he had about who God is and who

Jesus Christ is and what our relationship is like to them, which has just some rich stuff that

we get to study today.
