VIDEO: #ComeFollowMe with Living Scriptures: Alma 43–52 “Stand Fast in the Faith of Christ”

As threats of war with the Lamanites increased, Captain Moroni prepared the Nephites for battle. He tore his coat and created a banner he called the title of liberty. It said, “In memory of our God, our religion, and freedom, and our peace, our wives, and our children.” He asked the people to make a covenant to stand up for their rights and their religion. He knew that God would help them if they were faithful.

How did Captain Moroni prepare the Nephites?
Why did Captain Moroni create a title of liberty?
How can we fortify our family spiritually?

“For our safety, we must build a fortress of spirituality and protection for our very souls, a fortress that will not be penetrated by the evil one… When we build a fortress of spiritual strength, we can shun the advances of the adversary, turn our backs on him, and feel the peace of the Spirit.” Ronald A.
