The fifth episode of the Book of Mormon video series premieres

The fifth episode illustrates chapter 16 of the first book of Nephi, where Lehi receives the Liahona.

The fifth episode illustrates chapter 16 of the first book of Nephi, where the families of Lehi and Ishmael continue their journey through the wilderness and the Lord guides them in faith. Lehi's sons marry Ishmael's daughters and fulfill the Lord's commandments. The Lord commands the company to continue its journey and provides a tool called  the Liahona  that shows the way forward.

  

All hunting arches become weak and break, but Nephi shows faith by making a new bow, asking his father where to find food, and then successfully hunting where the Lord directed it. Lehi's family learns that the Lord's guidance comes in response to his faith, humility, and diligence in keeping His commandments.
