Book of Mormon Study Guide

"Of all of Dad's credentials, the most important is this, Dad loved the scriptures. His passion was the Book of Mormon. He was a lifetime student of the scriptures. He devoted his life to teaching others to love - and to a greater understanding of - the scriptures.

As a young missionary in the 1930s, he began compiling the Combination Reference as a scripture reference tool for other missionaries. In 1945, as a chaplain in the U.S. Army, his missionary zeal led him to present a copy of the Book of Mormon to Pope Pius XII. After the war, in 1949, he joined the religion faculty at BYU, where he was instrumental in making the Book of Mormon a required class. This Book of Mormon Study Guide was developed at BYU as a personal study aid for all students of the Book of Mormon.

He hoped that this book would aid you in your personal scripture study. And, like Nephi of old, may 'your soul also delight in the scriptures.'"
