We have a small group in our home every Sunday, we watch sacrament meeting by zoom, have the sacrament and then watch Taylor and Tyler. What a delightful Sunday it is! We so appreciate their lessons!!

[itsgoodforthesoul]

Today my decision was to turn to the scriptures and come follow me. How can I be prepared during all this turmoil? To deepen my faith and understanding of God's word and His church. I believe as I learn of him and keep that connection solid, He will tell me what I need to do and when. I very much have enjoyed my evening listening and taking notes in my Come Follow Me manual. Thank you for the insights and tidbits, the extras that you share and the time and effort you put into putting all of this together. The preparation and planning and filming etc I personally know it takes a lot of work. Thank you so very much!

[eleanorfolland]

Thanks for your lessons as it gives a better picture

[mary-theresadameron]

Taylor, I just love how you break down words with their Hebrew meanings. This is opening up my eyes to God's word even more.

[cathrinbantjes]

[jewela]

Awesome lesson!
Apart from the Father and the Son, Joseph Smith is the person I most look forward to meeting, to thank him for his obedience to the Lord.
Thank you!🤗

[kimberlyolsen]

Thank you Brethren for your testimony of The Prophet Joseph Smith and his wonderful experiences. I listen to these videos many times so that I can learn! Remember you are loved!🤗🤗🤗

[brogancasbon]

Oh how Tony and I love your lessons! Thank you for sharing your amazing knowledge and powerful testimony with us. The new insights that we are gaining, the increasing knowledge of the gospel we are learning, are down to your many years of studying, your present teaching, and our prayers and study. Thank you ever so much! You are appreciated beyond words can express... Thank you!

[debraprobst]

I love brother haverson and Griffith for their teaching the D and Ci. I learn so much and so grateful for the time they spend to teach this. I pray for the days that they teach.

[lyns]

Not only do I have a better understanding of Joseph Smith, but you have answered a question I've been praying about for quite some time. I can't wait to teach my Sunday school zoom class this afternoon.

[elaynegreen]

I study each new lesson as it is posted. Some days I reread it many times. Tyler and Tyler are my favorite teachers, they make each lesson easy to understand

[julievanwauwe]

I am short of words to say how much I thank you for the wise words. It is pure enjoyment of the enrichment that you bring. I admire our Prophet J.S for his strong faith and character and persistence. Greetings from Belgium

[rylanricks]

I love these lessons and really appreciate the time stamped videos that make it easier to jump around and share things with my family. Thanks so much to everyone who helps makes these possible. As a side note my wife and I had the opportunity to be in a couple different classes that Brother Griffin taught at BYU education week a number of years ago and loved his classes and spirit so it's awesome to hear from him weekly. Taylor, I also love the insights you provide; you are both awesome!

[DesertPrimrose]

I love these videos. I feel like I'm getting the same benefits from the videos as I got from Institute classes. They increase my knowledge, build my testimony, and comfort my spirit.

[julie-annferguson]

Thank you for another wonderful lesson. It's mind blowing to understand Jewish celebration with annual visit between Moroni and Joseph. I also love the break down of Hebrew meanings by Taylor. Heavenly Father always have a plan. Good job to both of you.

[MichaelDouglasSkewes]

Very nice and filled with good teachings and great Doctrine. And anything that helps people know that Joseph Smith his the Prophet of the restoration, and to come unto Christ!

[uusaffitaesmedina]

Thanks to both of you brothers for sharing this lesson. I’ve read this already but I see it now clearly and meaningful as you relate this significant event for us and the world today.

[MargaretH]

How Firm a Foundation...the Lord's way will save us! Thank you again and again, for the spirit you bring to your teachings, both of you!

[wyrdsister]

I am so grateful for your lessons, feel so blessed to have been led to you by the Lord. There is so much to learn that I feel like a thimble trying to hold the ocean. May I humbly ask that you pray for me, and all others who watch your lessons, that we will be able to learn line upon line, so that we can build up a body of understanding of how all the prophecies and principles correlate, how they fit... I’m trying to express this right but am even struggling to do that. Yet I know you understand. Thank you sincerely. (James 5:16 second sentence)

[taniaborlot]

Fantastic teaching which keeps enlightening my mind. Thanks to both of you.
