Come, Follow Me Moms Moses 7 February 2–8 Theme: Building Zion Starts in Our Hearts and Homes Welcome to another week of Come, Follow Me Moms, your weekly Come, Follow Me podcast created just for busy moms who want to feel the Spirit, understand the scriptures, and bring Christ into their homes without overwhelm. This week we’re studying Moses 7, focusing on the prophet Enoch, and this time we’re only in the Pearl of Great Price. (No need to grab your Bible this week!) Grab your Pearl of Great Price, your headphones, and let’s dig into some powerful, hope-filled insights for moms. 🌿 Big Idea for the Week: What Is Zion? Yes! Zion was the name of a city. But more importantly: Zion is not just a city. It is a condition of the heart and spirit. The Lord teaches: Doctrine and Covenants 97:21 “Zion is the pure in heart.” That means:
Zion is not perfection Zion is not a Pinterest home Zion is not quiet kids or perfect routines
✨ Zion is who we are becoming. 📖 What Happens in Moses 7? (Quick Overview) 1. Enoch Preaches Repentance (Moses 7:1–16) Enoch is called to preach to a very wicked people. At first, they reject him but many humble themselves, repent, and turn to God. We learn:
Zion begins with repentance Hearts change before societies change
2. Zion Is Established (Moses 7:17–21) As the people repent, something remarkable happens:
They become of one heart and one mind There is no contention, pride, or inequality There is deep unity and love
Zion is not just a place… it’s a people. 3. Jesus Christ Is the King of Zion (Moses 7:53) Enoch sees Jesus Christ and learns that Christ is the King of Zion. This teaches us:
Zion only works when Christ leads Unity flows from Christ-centered hearts
4. God Weeps for His Children (Moses 7:28–40) One of the most tender moments in all of scripture. Enoch sees God weeping over:
Violence Wickedness Suffering Lost potential
This reveals:
God is not distant God feels with us God loves His children deeply
5. Enoch Weeps Too… but God Gives Hope (Moses 7:41–69) Enoch sees:
The Flood Future wickedness The coming of Jesus Christ The Restoration The Second Coming
Even in sorrow, God gives hope:
Christ will come Redemption is real Zion will return God’s work will succeed
💛 Zion Is People (Friendship & Pregnancy Story) This week includes a personal story from a recent girls’ trip sharing how powerful it was to be surrounded by friends who were genuinely happy for each other. There was:
No judgment No comparison No jealousy Just love, joy, and celebration
This verse from Moses 7 describes it perfectly: Moses 7:18 “And the Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind…” One heart → no jealousy One mind → no comparison Dwelling in righteousness → choosing love and kindness ✨ That is Zion. And it is seriously the best feeling. 🚫 Stop the Comparison (Strong Mom Moment) As moms, it’s so easy to compare what we’re doing with what others are doing. So let’s say it clearly: STOP IT. Why?
Comparison does not lead to happiness Judgment does not create peace Zion cannot exist where comparison lives
We revisit Moses 7:18 and learn: You cannot be of one heart and one mind if you are constantly comparing yourself to other women. This section also references Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf and his powerful reminder from “The Merciful Obtain Mercy”: When it comes to judging others—STOP IT. Judgment divides. Mercy builds Zion. 👑 Jesus Christ Is the King of Zion (Moses 7:53) This verse invites an important question for moms: What does it mean to have Jesus Christ as your King? Does it:
Change how you parent? Soften how you respond? Release some pressure?
✨ When Jesus is King, we don’t have to be. 😭 God Weeps (A Tender Truth for Moms) In Moses 7:28–30, we learn something sacred: God weeps. God sees:
Our effort Our exhaustion Our heartbreak
He weeps with us. This section includes a conference tie-in from Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, reminding us that God’s love is:

Episode 43: God Knew You Before You Were Born | Come, Follow Me Moms | Jeremiah 1–4; 6–7; 16–18; 20 Have you ever felt like God was asking you to do something you weren't qualified to do? Or wondered if your children are actually listening to anything you're teaching them? 😂 Mama, this week's Come, Follow Me lesson is for YOU! We're diving into the book of Jeremiah, a prophet who was called by God before he was even born. Jeremiah was asked to preach repentance to people who didn't want to listen. He faced rejection, discouragement, and opposition, but the Lord reminded him that he was never alone. And guess what? We can learn SO much from Jeremiah about motherhood! In this episode, we're talking about:
Episode 42: Beauty for Ashes — Letting Jesus Christ Transform Our Motherhood | Isaiah 58–66 Come, Follow Me Moms | October 12–18, 2026 “The Redeemer Shall Come to Zion” Mama, what are you living without right now? Maybe it's sleep, peace, friendship, hope, or simply the energy to make it through another day. Maybe you're carrying grief, disappointment, or a burden nobody else knows about. This week's Come, Follow Me study in Isaiah 58–66 is a beautiful reminder that Jesus Christ doesn't just help us get through life. He has the power to transform us. He can bring beauty from ashes, light into darkness, joy in our mourning, and hope for our future. In this episode, we're diving into Isaiah's powerful prophecies about the Savior, what it means to put on Christ every day, and how we can invite His transforming power into our homes and motherhood. Because, mama, you don't have to have it all together to come unto Jesus Christ. ❤️ 🌸 In This Episode, We'll Talk About:
Episode 41: He Hath Borne Our Griefs & Carried Our Sorrows | Isaiah 50–57 + General Conference This week on Come, Follow Me Moms, we’re studying Isaiah and talking about some of my favorite messages from General Conference! Isaiah teaches us something every overwhelmed, exhausted, worried mama needs to hear: You were never meant to carry everything alone. Isaiah prophesied of Jesus Christ as “a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.” He didn't just come to save us from our sins—He came to bear our griefs and carry our sorrows. He understands the worry, loneliness, exhaustion, heartbreak, mom guilt, and seasons when life looks completely different than we thought it would. Pasted markdown Sometimes we pray for God to take the hard thing away, but instead He says, “I'm going to walk through it with you.” In this episode we talk about:
Fear Not: You Have Not Been Forgotten | Isaiah 40–49 + General Conference Prep This week on Come, Follow Me Moms, we’re studying Isaiah 40–49 and preparing our hearts and our homes for General Conference. And moms, if there is one message I hope you take away from these chapters, it’s this: God knows you. God has not forgotten you. God will strengthen you. God will lead you. And when what you’re carrying feels too heavy—He will carry you. Isaiah begins with the word comfort, and these chapters are filled with reminders for anyone who feels tired, overwhelmed, afraid, lost, or unsure of what comes next. We talk about:
Come, Follow Me Moms | September 21–27 Isaiah 13–14; 22; 24–30; 35 “A Marvellous Work and a Wonder” What if the things that feel broken in your life aren’t actually finished? This week in Isaiah, we see warnings about pride, worldliness, and turning away from God—but we also see an incredible message of hope, healing, and restoration through Jesus Christ. Isaiah describes broken walls, barren ground, heavy burdens, wandering people, and things that seem beyond repair. But that isn’t where the story ends. He also describes the wilderness blooming, the blind seeing, the deaf hearing, sorrow disappearing, and God’s people being restored. In this episode, we’re talking about what all of that means for us as moms. We’ll dive into:
