0:00.0 | 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, |

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. |
