WEEK 45: SUMMARY
=================
Lesson Summary:
In the last three chapters of the Book of Mormon, we’ll hear from a courageous Father and his compassionate Son. Both men will testify of Jesus Christ and the miraculous plan of our Father in Heaven. Mormon will teach of the power of the Bible and Book of Mormon in the latter days. His son, Moroni, will testify of the power and goodness of God and remind us that our probationary time is limited.
Mormon 8:7-8 | Why do you think these phrases are used in hard and good ways? What is the common thread between the hard and good things Moroni is describing?
Mormon 8:39 | What do you think it means to “adorn ourselves with that which hath no life”? Does it tie into the verses you find in 9 about being brought before God at the judgment bar and seeing our “nakedness” clearly?
Mormon 9:9 | How do we reconcile an unchanging God with eternal progression? Does God still progress or is He by definition, in a perfected state? Do the two ideas conflict or do they flow beautifully for you?

October 28 – November 3, 2024
WEEK 44: SUMMARY
=================
Lesson Summary:
This week, we’ll hear Mormon’s autobiography. It’s a coming-of-age story that helps us understand how to live and think Celestial in a very Telestial world. Mormon loves his people and desperately wants to save them from self-destruction. He’ll lead them, serve them, and stay among them from his childhood through the final battle on Cumorah.
Mormon 1:1 | If you had to make a record of your life so far. What would would make the cut? What things have you seen and heard that are worth passing to the next generation?
Mormon 3:16 | Have you and experience like this? Have you ever been prompted to stand by while watching a type of destruction? How did it broaden your understanding of the character of God, agency, or His masterful plan?
Mormon 5:1 | What motivates this change of heart? Is it about defensive vs. offensive warfare? Is it about the women and children who are sacrificed? Is it direction from the Lord?

“There Could Not Be a Happier People”
October 21 - October 27, 2024
WEEK 43: SUMMARY
=================
Lesson Summary:
This is a week woven with warnings and promises. President Nelson just taught, “Now is the time for us to make our discipleship our highest priority.” This week’s chapters will help you understand how to accomplish that powerful invitation. In His final sermon to the Nephites, the Savior emphasizes the need for unity within His church. He directs the name of the church as well as His clear, simple, redeeming doctrine. He’ll help us understand the value of giving all we have to His work and the promise of hope to all who come unto Him. His message leaves the people hungering and thirsting after righteousness for 3 generations. Sadly, the unity begins to unravel when pride creeps back in among the people and false teachings lure hearts away from the truth.
3 Nephi 27:25-26 | How does it comfort you to know the Father is the recorder for your life? How would that knowledge impact your prayers? How does D&C 137:9 help you understand this verse?
3 Nephi 28:1-10 | If this asking to tarry on the earth was such a good choice for the 3 Nephites, why don’t we have more people choosing it in scriptural history? What makes these three (and other translated beings) distinct from ministering angels?
4 Nephi 1:3 | These people weren’t in bondage before Christ’s coming. How were they “made free”? What do you think “the Heavenly Gift” refers to?

“Ye Are the Children of the Covenant”
October 14 – October 20, 2024
WEEK 42: SUMMARY
=================
Lesson Summary:
The Savior could have taught anything to the Nephites during His three-day visit. Interestingly, so much of His sermon was focused on their covenant connection to the House of Israel and the blessings of Abraham. After hearing that same focus from so many at General Conference, the words in these chapters feel more pertinent than ever.
3 Nephi 21:9 | Why is there a distinction between the words great and marvelous? What does the word marvelous add to greatness? Where have you seen both of these adjectives demonstrated in the Restored Church?
3 Nephi 24:11 | What does the adversary try to devour"? Why is this a fitting title? Does 2 Nephi 27:3 add any additional understanding? How does the Savior’s teachings to the woman at the well apply to this concept?
3 Nephi 26:9 | Are there doctrinal concepts or ideas you have had to accept on faith? How have those stretches of discomfort expanded your knowledge of the mysteries of God?

“Behold, My Joy Is Full”
October 7 – October 13, 2024
WEEK 41: SUMMARY
=================
Lesson Summary:
This week we come to know the character of the Savior in beautiful intimate ways. First, he’ll respond to the earnest, unspoken pleas of the people by healing their wounds and blessing their families. Next, He’ll show His love for the people by giving the divine mandate to remember Him through the sacrament ordinance. Finally, His watch care is evident when He calls and authorizes the twelve to carry on His work long after He departs. This study is compelling after hearing our own apostles witness of the Savior over conference weekend.
3 Nephi 17:1 | Alma 40:8 says time only is measured unto men. Why is God bound by it? Why can’t the Savior just time travel and spend as much time with them as he needs? How do Doctrine and Covenants 38:2 and Doctrine and Covenants 130:7 help you understand this verse?
3 Nephi 18:36-39 | Why does everyone see him when he comes but only the apostles see Him leave? What does the cloud represent?
3 Nephi 18:35 | Why is it expedient that Jesus goes to the Father? What do the footnotes teach you about why He must go?

September 30 – October 6, 2024
WEEK 40: SUMMARY
=================
Lesson Summary:
This week we’ll hear echoes of the New Testament in the Book of Mormon as we study the Sermon at the Temple. Jesus will teach those ready to live a higher law and become perfected through Him. He’ll teach the Beatitudes, ask them to examine their intentions, and remind them of prophecy about His other sheep. It’s a power-packed week of study!
3 Nephi 11-16 | Elder Holland said “Refuse to accept the world for what it appears to be. Shine the brightness of your hope on it and make it what it ought to be.” How do you see this type of determination and tenacious hope in the Savior this week? Can hope actually change the landscape of your lif or does it just make you view it differently?
14:13-14 | There are many reasons why the gate of baptism is strait and narrow. One of my favorites I found in 2 Nephi 9:41. That verse openem my eyes to a new understanding about the relationship that is initiated. Why do you think the gate is strait and narrow?
3 Nephi 15:17-18 | Pride and doubt limit revelation for the Children of Israel in Jesus’ time. How have you seen it limit revelation in your life? How has humility and faith impacted the flow of revelation for you?

WEEK 39: SUMMARY
=================
Lesson Summary:
This week we see the pinnacle moment of the Book of Mormon when the Savior finally comes among the Nephines. Before he arrives as a glorified, resurrected being, great storms will rage. Thousands will be lost in the calamity due to their wickedness and abuse of the servants of the Lord. Those who survive the storms will gather at the temple to see His face, touch His wounds, and testify of His resurrection.
3 Nephi 10:9-10 | What is it about the subsequent verses that teach you how their mourning was turned into joy? What do they know now that they didn’t know in the darkness?
3 Nephi 10:12-15 | Why was Samuel protected from stones and arrows while the other prophets were not? What was unique about his mission? How do you teach those different results to your children?
3 Nephi 11:39-40 | How do you see this happening in our day? Why is it tempting to declare more or less? How does it remove/negate the steadying anchor pins that Elder Bednar spoke about in conference?

“Lift Up Your Head and Be of Good Cheer”
September 16 - September 22
WEEK 38: SUMMARY
===========Insights Summary:The years leading up to the Savior’s arrival among the Nephites are tumultuous. There are external struggles between the Gadianton Robbers and internal struggles with the demons of doubt and discouragement. There are also bright moments of faith when believers choose to “hope against hope” as Paul would say. This week you’ll study their experiences and watch the Lord fulfill His promise. It’s a fantastic week of study.
Questions to Consider:3 Nephi 1:9 | The believers in prophecy are threatened with death. It’s like Esther’s story in the Old Testament. They are not forming an uprising. They don’t want power. They are not a threat. Question: What causes this kind of extreme reaction? What problem are the dissenters trying to solve? Do you see this fear-based violence against the light in our day?3 Nephi 3:2 | Giddianhi, the Gadianton leader, demands that Lachoneus and the Nephites surrender themselves and their lands. He tries many techniques to convince Lachoneus to surrender. Question: Do you see similarities between this letter and the temptations Satan tried to offer the Savior? Are there similarities with Moses 1? What tools/knowledge does Lachoneus use to see through the trap?3 Nephi 7:26 | After seeing the miracles of Nephi, many believe. They choose to repent and are baptized by authorized priesthood holders.
25 Therefore, there were ordained of Nephi, men unto this ministry, that all such as should come unto them should be baptized with water, and this as a witness and a testimony before God, and unto the people, that they had repented and received a remission of their sins.26 And there were many in the commencement of this year that were baptized unto repentance;Question: How is repentance a pre-requisite for baptism and something you’re baptized unto? Are these different types of repentance (like the different types of hope we discussed)? What does it mean to be baptized “unto” repentance?CHAPTERS:

“Glad Tidings of Great Joy”
September 9 – September 15 2024
WEEK 37: SUMMARY
=================Insights Summary:Samuel the Lamanite is an outlier in many ways. He’s an outsider - the only Lamanite prophet on record. His mission to the Nephites focuses on repentance and finding hope in the coming of Christ. His words will soften the hearts of a few and ignite violence in the hearts of others. As a Lamanite, he is a living witness of the power of repentance. His words are powerful, prophetic, and profoundly applicable for our day.
Questions to Consider:Helaman 13:13-14 | Question: Where have you see this in your life? When have you seen the righteousness of one or a few provide protection for many?
Helaman 15:8 | What “thing” is Samuel referring to in this verse? What kind of freedom is this? Freedom from what exactly?
Helaman 16:1 | What did each man bring to the table? Why were both needed? Why didn’t Samuel do the baptizing? Why didn’t Nephi get on the wall? Where do you see this kind of tag-team work in the church today?

“Remember the Lord”
September 2 – September 8 2024
WEEK 36: SUMMARY
=================
Lesson Summary:
This week, we see a prophet’s role up close. We’ll follow Nephi as he works diligently to reclaim Nephite hearts for the Lord. We’ll hear him pray for his people from his garden tower and watch as those same people accuse him of conspiracy. Nephi will be weighed down with sorrow at times and lifted up by the Lord at others. His tenacity through it all will inspire you to study the words of our prophet and seek the wisdom God is eager to give you.
1. Helaman 7:11
Nephi has a desperate prayer to offer for the people. He doesn’t go to a private place. He prays on a garden tower near the highway.
Question: Do you think this was deliberately demonstrative? What did he think would happen? Is there a comparison between this experience and Daniel’s prayer with his windows open (see Daniel 6:10)?
Jack N Gerard, Apr 2024, Integrity: A Christlike attribute
2. Helaman 11:23
After a period of peace, contentions well up. Nephi and Lehi and otehrs are able to neutralize those contentions by teaching truth “having many revelations daily”
Question: When have you felt this surge in your life? Do you see this playing out in the lives of prophets and apostles today? We tend to focus on conference. How does daily revelation trickle down into the church now?
3. Helaman 12:5
Mormon is warning about how prosperity tends to harden our hearts and make us forget God’s goodness. He said “they do harden their hearts, and do forget the Lord their God, and do trample under their feet the Holy One—yea, and this because of their ease, and their exceedingly great prosperity.”
Question: What does it mean to trample the Holy One under our feet? Does this have something to do with his posture as a Redeemer Or is this about our own dismissiveness Or could it be about our casualness in expecting and receiving His gift?
