The Chosen, Third Nephi, and The Witness of Living Prophets

 Have you had the chance to view one or more episodes of the Series about the life of Jesus Christ, The Chosen?  DH, DD1 and I have enjoyed watching this series the past few years, which is based on the life of Jesus Christ as documented in the four gospels of Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John in the Holy Bible.  We like it so much that I have purchased the DVD's and even gifted them to others who I feel would enjoy watching it.  The series is produced by Dallas Jenkins, who is not of our faith, but a devout Christian with a love and commitment to portray our Savior as realistically as possible.  If you haven't had the chance to view this series, you can find out more information how to watch it (for free!) here:  The Chosen

Our own church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, has also produced many different video presentations about the life of Jesus Christ over the years, and many of them can be found in the Church's online video collection here:  Jesus Christ.  Very exciting news for me today is the release of a new set of videos that focus on the visit of Jesus Christ to the American people immediately following his crucifixion and resurrection as recorded in the Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Jesus Christ.  You should soon be able to find them here Book Of Mormon Videos by searching for Season 4 3 Nephi 11.  I'm really looking forward to watching these videos too!



Another exciting event of this weekend is the 192nd semi annual conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.   So far we have been able to enjoy four different sessions of beautiful music and testimonies and messages from the current living prophet and apostles of Jesus Christ!  The focus of the messages of course is our Savior Jesus Christ, and how we can draw closer to him, follow him, and find peace in today's world that so often brings so many trials, pain and confusion.  We have one more session to enjoy, coming up in just a few minutes at 2pm US Mountain Time.  If you would like to join us, you are more than welcome!  If you have missed the live stream broadcasts, all of the sessions will soon be available to view all of the sessions on the church's website or on Youtube:



We are all so blessed to have so many ways to learn more about our Savior Jesus Christ,  and to draw close to him, and have his help and guidance in our lives every single day, especially through studying scripture and reaching out to him in prayer..   How have you learned about Christ and how has he helped you in your life?
