In the well known story of Alma and sons of Mosiah and their missions among the Lamanites we can learn much about missionary work and its role in the gospel.
One of the things that we talked about in class this week had to do with the king of the Lamanites. There is a part where the king tries to kill Ammon. Ammon defends himself and then holds the king at swordpoint. The king then offers Ammon half of the kingdom if he will spare his life. Here we can see that the king saw his life as equal to half of his kingdom.
Later, when the king is being taught by Aaron, the king desires to know God. He prays and says that he will give up everything to know God. It is interesting to see how knowing God, according to the king, is worth giving up everything.
As we talked about this concept during class, I could see how we could apply that same principle in our own lives.
