- " The ideal place to learn the gospel is the home. Your teachers at church can support you, and you can get encouragement from other ward members. But to survive spiritually, you and your family need daily nourishment from “the good word of God”...
Use this resource in any way that is helpful to you. The outlines highlight some eternal truths found in the Book of Mormon and suggest ideas and activities to help you study the scriptures individually, with your family, or with friends.
