The first week of September Jake sent us a challenge to try to read the Book of Mormon before he gets home. Giving us four months to complete this challenge. When I first got it I just passed it by thinking I was too busy also I said I was going to read the Book of Mormon at least once every year he was gone and it was now way over that and I hadn't even completed it once so I didn't think it was possible. As I was pondering one night I felt very strongly that I needed to take up Jake's challenge and read the Book of Mormon starting at the very beginning. I started to listen to it on my kindle then started to listen in the car driving back and forth from work. Being an auditory learning person this really really helped me get so much out of it that I have never gotten before. I just finished this amazing book in only two months. I can't even tell you the blessings it has brought into my life and I learned so much from it. I just want to say that I know that this book is true, it can and will draw you closer to Heavenly Father. I am thankful for the challenge Jake gave to read this great book and that I was prompted to follow up on the challenge. I am also thankful for the great scriptures and words of the savior in our world today to read and grow from.
