0:00.0 | Hello there, I'm Tyler Griffin. |
0:02.5 | And I'm Alvin Meredith. |
0:04.0 | And this is Scripture Study Insights by Scripture Central. |
0:07.6 | Today, Alma chapters 53 through 63. |
0:12.3 | And you are in for an absolute treat to be able to have President Elder Meredith with us. He's the current president of BYU Idaho in Rexburg. |
