Episode Description
Summary
In this episode of My Scripture Streak, Jeffery Downs reads and discusses Mosiah chapter 19. The chapter begins with the army of King Noah returning from their unsuccessful search for the people of the Lord. This leads to division and contention among the people, and a man named Gideon rises up against the king. Gideon pursues the king, but when the Lamanite army approaches, the king begs for his life and the people flee into the wilderness. The Lamanites pursue them and take some of them captive, while others choose to stay and perish with their families. Eventually, a deal is made with the Lamanites, and Limhi becomes the new king.
