Show Notes

Shiloh and Ben discuss Alma’s first missionary experience to the people of Zarahemla and to Gideon. Alma was not only the High Priest over the Church, but he was also the Chief Judge of the new Nephite government. Once Alma saw the social inequality going on in society, he abdicated the socio-political power to Nephihah and resorted to being a missionary -- seeing “no way” that he could reclaim the people except by bearing down pure testimony. But what value does testimony have to change the course of civilization and society? That’s what we’re here to discuss today… We hope you enjoy!
