How are the lives of Lydia and Edward Partridge like ours? Join John Bytheway, Hank Smith, and Sherilyn Farnes as we discuss Doctrine and Covenants 98-101 and the many trials the Missouri Saints face while Joseph is over 800 miles away in Kirtland yet receives revelations for their day and ours. The Lord uses the evil actions of others to create a Zion-hearted people, which is a message for the early Saints and today.
