Moroni 7-9

In this episode we’ll talk about Moroni chapters seven through nine. We’ll review four separate principles taught in these chapters. We’ll talk about the concept of “entering in to the rest of the Lord” and how that can affect our mental health. This invitation is for this life as well as the life to come. We’ll discuss the idea of transformation and change and how the gospel of Jesus Christ can help us change all aspects of our personalities, including our mental health. We’ll review the relationship between increasing our capacity for love and decreasing our anxiety. We’ll also talk about the idea of “process vs. destination” and how as we focus more on the process, we can experience greater fulfillment.
