WELCOME

The best advice I can give is from a talk by Elder Oaks: ”Last year a church member sent me a suggestion that someone prepare a book containing all General Authority interpretations of all verses in the scriptures. I replied that I thought this was not a good idea…. What we are seeking to accomplish… is not to magnify the standing of the prophets but to elevate the spirituality of our rank and file members. Like Moses, we declare, ‘would God that all the Lord’s people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!’ (Numbers 11:29). We encourage everyone to study the scriptures prayerfully and seek personal revelation to know the meaning for themselves.” (Elder Dallin H. Oaks, “Scripture Reading and Revelation”, BYU Studies Academy Meeting, January 29, 1993)

New idea for daily study

Saw this article and thought to share it.

http://oneshetwoshe.com/2014/07/never-miss-day-reading-scriptures.html

Basically you get a group of people together that will be willing to text each other once they have finished their scripture study for the day. You would mention something you found interesting or just liked.

I think it is a great idea.. I posted it on my Facebook but thought to mention it here.

Any takers? I have a few ideas how we could do this with a large group.
