Hey guys, 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, Kristen Zach Horton.

This is Doctrine

Covence Sections 14 through 17 Witness. And in this episode, we are asking you the question,

inviting you to ask yourself the question, what's my witness and where or when does the Lord expect me to stand and give that witness?

We're really excited to study these sections with you and hopefully to be a catalyst for a powerful study you'll have on your own.

But first, we just wanted to read the question again from last week or remind you about the question last week and share with you

a couple of the responses that we got on social media that were just good. I think there's so much

questions, so much swirling around these questions of women in the priesthood that I think

it's a great topic

to keep on your mind as we study the restoration in general. So if you remember, last week the

question was, what is the power the Lord has given me and what does he expect me to do with it?

So the first one says, the Lord has given me priesthood power through my covenants to enhance my capacity

to receive revelation for myself and my family, also to be a better steward for the people

the Lord has asked me to care for in my calling. It's validating, but also stride-lengthening too.

I like that one a lot because something we didn't talk about last week, but I've heard a lot

of people mention as we talk about the power that God gives us is it's power to help someone

else.

He never, never, maybe it's too strong.

I can't think of a time when he gives us power that is solely focused on our own benefit.
