Challenge to Read the Book of Mormon Continues

Tuesday October 4, 2005
President Hinckley's invitation to read the Book of Mormon by the end of this year was talked about several times during this past General Conference. If you're just now starting to read from the beginning you can STILL easily finish the Book of Mormon by reading only 3 chapters a day! So don't feel overwhelmed, just take it day by day and you too can complete our prophet's inspired counsel.

I have already been richly rewarded as I've taken this challenge to read the Book of Mormon again by the end of the year. Many scriptures have been personal messages to me, that have directly applied in my life! I almost feel as if this challenge was just for me. So take the time to renew your dedication to read the Book of Mormon by the end of the year- it's worth it!

Don't miss these great resources that can help you achieve your goal:
  • Pocket Sized Book of Mormon (Scroll down to "Scriptures")
    This small Book of Mormon from LDS Distribution Center is only $4.00 and easily fits into a pocket or purse! I carry mine around with me everywhere, which makes it easy for me to read a chapter or two when standing in line waiting for something or when I have a quiet moment or two.
