0:24.4	Welcome. For show notes, head over to our website, talkingscripture.org. Welcome to Talking Scripture. I'm Mike. And I'm Bryce. And today we're going to be in Doctrine and Covenants 12-17.
0:31.4	And I love what the Lord has done here as he's foiled. We've got two very different families coming into focus, the Knights and the

1:41.4	This early branch is the first branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
1:46.9	of the Restoration.
1:48.4	And the nucleus of this early group is the Knight family.
1:52.6	And I'll be honest, some of the stuff really tugs at my heartstrings as I read about
