April 8–14: The Lord Labors with Us Jacob 5–7 There are many, many people who haven’t yet heard the gospel of Jesus Christ. If you ever feel overwhelmed by the immensity of the task of gathering them into the Lord’s Church, what Jacob said about olive trees in Jacob 5 has a reassuring reminder: the vineyard belongs to the Lord.

April 1–7: Be Reconciled unto God through the Atonement of Christ Jacob 1–4 The Nephites considered Nephi their “great protector”. He had also protected them against spiritual dangers, warning them against sin and urging them to come unto Christ. Now that task fell to Jacob, whom Nephi had consecrated to be a priest and teacher. April 1-7 2024 Lesson

March 25–31: “He Shall Rise … with Healing in His Wings” Easter The ancient Apostles were bold in their testimonies of Jesus Christ and His Resurrection (see Acts 4:33). Millions of people believe in Jesus Christ and try to follow Him because of their words recorded in the Bible. March 25-31 2024 Lesson

March 18–24: “This Is the Way” 2 Nephi 31–33 Among Nephi’s last recorded words, we find this declaration: “The Lord commanded me, and I must obey” (2 Nephi 33:15). This is a good summary of Nephi’s life. He tried to understand the will of God and courageously obeyed it March 18-24 2024 Lesson

March 11–17: “A Marvelous Work and a Wonder” 2 Nephi 26–30 “I prophesy unto you concerning the last days,” Nephi wrote (2 Nephi 26:14). In other words, he was writing about our day. And there’s reason to be concerned about what he saw: people denying the power and miracles of God; widespread jealousy and conflict. But in addition to these latter-day “works of darkne

March 4–10: “We Rejoice in Christ” 2 Nephi 20–25 The writings of Isaiah include strong warnings, but they also offer hope and joy. This is one reason Nephi included them in his record: “I write some of the words of Isaiah,” he said, “that whoso … shall see these words may lift up their hearts and rejoice” (2 Nephi 11:8). In a sense, the invitation to read Isaiah�

February 26–March 3: “His Name Shall Be Called … The Prince of Peace” 2 Nephi 11–19 Engraving on metal plates is not easy, and space on Nephi’s small plates was limited. So why would Nephi make the effort of copying so many of the writings of the prophet Isaiah into his record? He did it because he wanted us to believe in Jesus Christ. “My soul delighteth,” he wrote

January 29–February 4: “I Will Prepare the Way before You” 1 Nephi 16–22 As Lehi’s family journeyed toward the promised land, the Lord made them this promise: “I will prepare the way before you, if it so be that ye shall keep my commandments” (1 Nephi 17:13). Clearly, that promise did not mean that the journey would be easy—family members still disagreed, bows broke

January 22–28: “Armed with Righteousness and with the Power of God” 1 Nephi 11–15 When God has monumental work for His prophet to do, He often gives that prophet a monumental vision. Moses, John, Lehi, and Joseph Smith all had visions like that—visions that expanded their minds and helped them see just how grand and awe-inspiring God’s work really is. Jan 22-28 2024 Les

January 15–21: “Come and Partake of the Fruit” 1 Nephi 6–10 Lehi’s dream—with its iron rod, mists of darkness, spacious building, and tree with “most sweet” fruit—is an inspiring invitation to receive the blessings of the Savior’s love and atoning sacrifice. For Lehi, however, this vision was also about his family: “Because of the thing which I have seen, I ha
