In this episode we’ll talk about Ether chapters twelve through fifteen. We’ll talk about several principles, starting with the concept of repentance.

We will review the role of weakness and humility in personal progress, and how both are essential to eventually becoming more like our Savior Jesus Christ.

Meanwhile, the paid care sector has a critical shortage of daycare staff, home health aides and certified nursing assistants. America is in a care work crisis.
