Motivations

"And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophesies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins." - 2 Nephi 25:26

This is one of my favorite passages. To me it outlines one of the key motivations of the writers of the Book of Mormon; testify of Christ so that others may be drawn to him. My testimony has grown as I have studied and pondered their words.

I am very grateful to the time, effort, and sacrifice given to bring us these special writings. I am especially grateful for their examples of finding Christ. They show how to let him be a part of our life and live by his teachings.
