Description

Exploring the often overlooked 2 Nephi in the Book of Mormon, this episode delves into the rich content and theology it offers. Jen and Patrick are joined by Chad Ford to  discuss the contrast between the action-packed 1 Nephi and the more mature, world-weary prophet in 2 Nephi, highlighting the lessons on peace and family dynamics found in the scripture. They recommend ways to see Christ as the true hero of the Book of Mormon as they reflect on the significance of the different peace narratives portrayed in the scripture.[00:02:14] Growing Up in 2 Nephi.[00:06:08] Conflict transformation and peacemaking.[00:09:22] The essence of "Aloha."[00:13:00] The significance of conflict.[00:16:45] Peaceful conflict resolution.[00:23:43] Conflict and differing perspectives.[00:26:42] Is it OK to be angry?[00:30:05] Loving our enemies.[00:35:32] The role of eschatology.[00:37:28] Practical peace building strategies.[00:41:27] Active peace building.[00:44:33] Vulnerability and transformation[00:51:47] Missionary misunderstanding incident.[00:53:37] Being right vs being righteous.For transcripts and more show notes, visit https://www.mormonwomenforethicalgovernment.org/proclaim-peace
