WOW! WOW! and WOW!
We already know that Brad Wilcox and John Hilton III are phenomenal authors...
But this book has the ability to not only change lives, but to further our progression in becoming more Christ-like.
These two amazing men have found all of the questions that are in the book of Mormon...there are 543 to be exact.
52 questions are in this book as a 'read and ponder one question a week for a year.'
Can you even imagine what your life would be like 52 weeks from now if you really studied and answered questions like:
*Wherefore can ye doubt?
*Shall we not be diligent in keeping the commandments of the Lord?
*Whither shall I go?
*How is it that he cannot instruct me?
*and Why should my heart weep?
Stories and examples teach us how to apply each question to our own lives.
"The weak are not discovered by their questions~
but by when they stop questioning."
"People are not wrong when they doubt~
but when they fail to do something about their doubts."
The question I have been studying this week is: Why do ye smite your younger brother with a rod?
Do I smite my brother? Not with a rod~but sometimes I find myself smiting them with my tongue (gossiping) or my thoughts (especially if I am frustrated with someone)...
Very interesting...didn't realize what I was really doing...must work on that!
AMAZING BOOK!
SO WORTH STUDYING!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!
