142 Episode – What’s In My Way?
Moroni saw our day. He knew what would be going on when the Book of Mormon would be published for the whole world. He also had an experience that very few people in the history of the world had ever had: he saw the entire destruction of his people. And he asks an interesting question of those of us living in the latter-days.
