The challenge is simple. The promise is real.
Challenge: Prayerfully study the Book of Mormon for at least 30 minutes daily for one week long. Write down what you notice about your mental state, your emotions, your perspective on life, and anything else you that stands out.
Ppromise: If you do this you’ll have greater ability to see the distractions of Satan, to understand who you are, to give to your brothers and sisters and much, much more that will come in very small and personal ways.
If you would like to be accountable as well as receive a reminder text for that week, feel free to send start your week off by texting “I want Apple Pie!” to three61-five002. I’ll text you each day after I’m done reading and you can text me when you’re done as well. This method is very effective and you can do it with anyone!
For more details see my blog post on Apple Pie.
