Hello, everyone. Welcome to Follow Him favorites. This is where John and I share a single story to go with

0:07.7

each week's lesson. John, we are in Doctrine and Covenants 19 this week. I thought of a story as I was reading

0:14.7

where the Lord says, please repent, please repent over and over. In fact, he doesn't even say,

0:20.1

please. He says, I command you to repent. I command you to repent because I don't want you to suffer.

0:27.6

Do you don't remember? He says, how sore you know not. I don't want you to suffer. So please repent.

0:34.8

I think he says command to repent, honestly, throughout the entire section. It made me think of

0:40.3

this story. C.S. Lewis wrote a book called The Great Divorce. It's not as famous as his other ones,

0:46.2

Chronicles of Narnia, and mere Christianity. But I really like this one. There's a lot of different

0:52.9

stories in it, a lot more detail, but I like this single part of it.

0:58.6

I think it's really towards the end of the book where there's a man who doesn't live a good life and he ends up going to hell.

1:07.1

So C.S.

1:09.9

1:11.6

and he doesn't like it there. It's not a nice place to visit, and I wouldn't want to live there.

1:18.9

I don't want to live there. He says it's black and white, not a lot of color, everybody's pretty

1:25.3

henri, and there's lots of long lines. Wouldn't that make

1:29.1

you think, I want to repent? I can handle burning and fire, but yeah, long lines and onry people

1:35.2

and no color. Yeah. So as he's there, he hates it there, he sees that you can take a tour of heaven.

1:43.3

There's like a bus that goes to heaven. Sure, go take a tour of heaven. There's like a bus that goes to heaven.

1:45.4

Sure, go take a tour of heaven.

1:46.8

So he gets on the bus and wants to see it.

1:49.4

Well, he gets to heaven and he loves it there.
