Book of Mormon Stories

Hi, my name is S.J. Hollist. For the year 2008 I was called to be a Primary Teacher in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’, Richardson Stake, Sachse Ward. I fulfilled this calling willingly and voluntarily with no compensation other then spiritual gifts from a loving Heavenly Father.

The lessons for the year were from the Book of Mormon which inspired me to create this blog. This blog contains my lesson notes and links to scriptures and the lesson manual. If you have ever wondered what the Book of Mormon is about, or are just looking for a quick lesson on a certain topic, I believe you'll find this blog very helpful.

If you are looking for a basic idea as to what the Book of Mormon is all about, I suggest starting with Lesson 33, and then if you have additional time check out Lesson 1 and Lesson 44; you can go as far as you like from there.

It is my testimony to you, that the Book of Mormon will not only help you to better understand The Holy Bible and the Gospel of Jesus Christ, but that it will help you find peace in your life if you live by the principles taught within it. The Book of Mormon is not a replacement for The Holy Bible, but is an additional testament of Jesus Christ, and a companion to The Holy Bible; given to us by a loving Heavenly Father.

Since the lessons are done on a weekly basis, with some weeks having special events, I've also included some notes on the events from weeks I was not teaching, or that had other events happening that week. I hope this will give those who are unfamiliar with the LDS Church a basic idea of how we worship, through the eyes of an individual member of the LDS Church.
