Alma 5–7

In this episode we’ll talk about Alma chapters five through seven. We’ll review how Alma relinquished his position as chief judge so he could devote himself fully to ministering to church members. We’ll talk about how this was a good example of setting boundaries, and how setting boundaries can help our personal progress.
