0:00.0 | Hello there. I'm Tyler Griffin and this is Scripture Study Insights by Scripture Central. |
0:08.0 | Welcome to a brand new year of study. Now many of you may be wondering, do I really need to study the book Mormon again? |
0:18.0 | I've read it dozens of times, some of you hundreds of times. Is there really |
0:23.0 | anything else that this book can say to me that I don't already know or that I haven't already |
0:27.3 | experienced? I can answer that question with an excited yes. There is so much more that God has to give us this year as we dive |
0:41.8 | into a deep study of this book yet again. Just anecdotally speaking, I have taught professionally |
0:49.7 | in the church educational system for over 28 years between seminary and institute and at |

2:04.6 | every time you open them up, they reveal things, you can see people, places, events, far away, |
2:13.6 | far in the past, and you can understand their world. And then with the help of the Holy Ghost |
2:20.6 | and deep study, you can recognize that those very same windows to the past become reflective |
2:29.4 | mirrors to your soul today, to your life, to your situation, to your struggles and your questions. |
2:37.7 | So what I wanted to do is we begin this new year of study with the introduction, the title |
