We know Lehi, Nephi, Alma, Samuel the Lamanite, Mormon, Moroni, and Hagoth. But what happened beyond the familiar record? The Nemenhah Sacred Records preserve another history—one that follows families who traveled northward, built communities, worshiped in sacred temples, remembered the visits of Jesus Christ, and attempted to live the way of the Peacemaker. This opening presentation introduces the people, the records, and the journey ahead. 🎧 Listen to the narr...

πŸ”️ Two Temple Journeys

  πŸ”️   Two Temple Journeys A Personal Comparison Between the Modern LDS Temple and the Nemenhah Temple Writings ☕ Pull up a chair on the porch for a minute. This isn't written to criticize anyone. I still worship with my wife each Sunday in an LDS congregation. Some of the finest Christians I've ever known are faithful members of the Church. This isn't about judging people. It's simply about asking a question that has been on my mind for years: What is the primary purpose of the temple? After studying both the scriptures of the Restoration and the Nemenhah temple writings, I've come to believe they emphasize two different journeys. ⛪ The Modern LDS Temple Today, faithful Latter-day Saints generally understand the temple to be a place where we: Make sacred covenants. Receive ordinances through priesthood authority. Are sealed as families. Perform proxy ordinances for deceased ancestors. Return often to continue that sacred work. There is much devotion and sacrifice ...

Lesson 10 One Generation of Peace What Happened After Hahgohtl?

🌿 Journey Through the Nemenhah Sacred Records Lesson 10 One Generation of Peace What Happened After Hahgohtl? Listen to the NEW Narration:      Lesson 10 ---- Choose the Better Way πŸ“– Let's Read the Record Together This week, read the opening of The Book of Hahgmehni . As you read, don't worry about understanding every name or every place. Instead, ask yourself one simple question: "What is Hahgmehni trying to teach me?" I think that's the key to understanding this entire book. 🌿 What Happened? When Hahgohtl finished his record, he left us with hope. The people had finally found the land the Lord had prepared for them. After years of hardship... they finally had peace. Now Hahgmehni picks up the story. The first thing that impressed me was his humility. He doesn't begin by telling us about himself. Instead, he tells us his father told the truth. He was there. He saw what happened. Then Hahgmehni does something interesting. Instead of describing one nat...

The Two Religions --- One Preserves the Form. The Other Seeks the Living Christ.

Image
  The Two Religions One Preserves the Form. The Other Seeks the Living Christ. There is a pattern that has repeated throughout scripture. It happened to Israel. It happened among the Nephites. It happened after the early Christian Church. And if we're honest... it can happen to any of us. The danger was never simply false religion. The greater danger was true religion that slowly became centered on itself instead of on God. 🌿 God Has Always Desired a Relationship When Adam and Eve left the garden, God didn't establish a bureaucracy. He sought His children. Throughout scripture, His invitation has always been personal. "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." (John 10:27) Not... "My sheep only know about Me." They hear Him. ⛰️ Sinai: The Great Turning Point When Israel came to Mount Sinai, the Lord invited the whole nation to come near. Instead, they said to Moses, "You speak to God for us." From...

πŸ›ž The Medicine Wheel: Learning to Think Like the Peacemaker

Image
  πŸ›ž The Medicine Wheel: Learning to Think Like the Peacemaker "We are all relations." Those four simple words have been echoing in my mind since our recent Way Walking class. For years I thought the Medicine Wheel was simply a Native American symbol. Now I'm beginning to understand that it is much more than a symbol—it is a way of thinking , a way of making decisions, and a way of walking with the Peacemaker. Listen to the NEW Dialog Song:    Walk It Around The Wheel 🌿 Don't React... Walk the Wheel One of the most important things I learned was this: When we receive an impression, an idea, a revelation, or face a difficult decision, our first responsibility is not to react. Instead... Place it in the center of the Medicine Wheel. Think about it. Gather information. Ask questions. Challenge your assumptions. Consider who may be affected. Then seek confirmation from the Haymenhay . That was a new thought for me. Many of us have been taught to ask immediately, "Is...

  πŸͺΆ The Story Behind the Nemenhah Sacred Records Listen to the NEW Intro Dialog here:    The Nemenhah Sacred Records How Were These Ancient Records Brought Forth? "Every good gift, and every perfect gift, is from above..." — James 1:17 πŸŒ„ The Question Everyone Asks Whenever someone first hears about the Nemenhah Sacred Records , one question almost always follows: "Where did these records come from?" It's a fair question. I asked it too. The story is unlike anything I had ever heard. 🌿 It Didn't Begin With a Publishing Company According to Chief Cloudpiler , the work did not begin with scholars, historians, or archaeologists. It began with prayer. Years before artificial intelligence... before online publishing... before social media... Cloudpiler describes being prepared through difficult experiences and deep spiritual seeking. He believed the Creator was preparing him for something he never expected. πŸͺΆ The Ancestors Began to Speak ...

 Lesson 9 Looking Beyond the Horizon Preparing Future Generations πŸ“š Reading Assignment Primary Source Ayahtkuhyaht Nemenhah – Complete Text (Second Edition) Review the closing portions of The Book of Hahgohtl – Main Record , reflecting on the lasting influence of Hahgohtl's leadership and the future he prepared for his people. Related Scriptures Alma 37:6–7 Proverbs 13:22 Psalm 78:4–7 🌿 Opening Thought "The greatest journeys are not measured by how far we travel, but by what we leave for those who come after us." When Hahgohtl first launched his boats, he was searching for a homeland. By the end of his journey... he had found something even greater. A future. The river had carried him into unknown lands. But his greatest work was preparing others to continue after he was gone. 🌿 The Story The settlements were growing. Children who had never known the long river journey were now calling this beautiful valley home. The people had food. They had homes. They had healers. T...

Two Records, One Witness - How the Book of Mormon and the Nemenhah Records Testify of Each Other—and Lead Us to Jesus Christ

  Two Records, One Witness How the Book of Mormon and the Nemenhah Records Testify of Each Other—and Lead Us to Jesus Christ Listen to the Narration Long Version:     Two Records One Witness (Long Version Male) Listen to the Narration:    Two Records One Witness “Know ye not that the testimony of two nations is a witness unto you that I am God, that I remember one nation like unto another?” — 2 Nephi 29:8 This morning, I arose and had a beautiful conversation with the Spirit concerning the Nemenhah Records. I felt peace, gratitude, and renewed assurance. These records have become very precious to me. I do not claim to understand everything in them, and I do not believe another person should accept them merely because I do. But I am no longer standing at the edge, wondering whether I should enter. I am all in—not in following another organization, nor in replacing one institution with another, but in following Jesus Christ wherever His voice leads me. As I ...
