The Belief Window – Hyrum W. Smith

Table of Contents

I listened to this talk dozens of times on the mission and I’ve been looking for a digital version of the talk online for years. Here it is!

Hyrum W. Smith explains that sin is the result of deep and unmet needs. We sin when we apply incorrect principles of living from our “Belief Window” to meet these needs.

Listen to “The Belief Window” (actually called “Self Worth”) by Hyrum Smith here:

My amazing pianist friend Nathan Schaumann recently shared his transcription of this talk with me! It’s 20 pages long so I’m including it in another post found here. Say thanks to Nathan by subscribing to his YouTube channel!
