In this episode of The Book of Mormon for Beginners, I dive into Alma 59, a pivotal chapter that serves as an interlude between two sets of epistles. We explore Helaman's recent successes in reclaiming cities from the Lamanites and shift focus back to Moroni, who faces new challenges. Despite Helaman's victories, Moroni struggles as the Lamanites attack the Nephite cities of Nephiha, Moroni, Lehi, and Morianton. As the situation deteriorates, Moroni becomes increasingly frustrated with the Nephite government’s lack of support. This chapter highlights the themes of faith and leadership, as Moroni questions the people's righteousness and the government's indifference. Join me as we unpack these events and prepare for Moroni's forthcoming confrontation with the chief judge.
