Hey there, welcome to the Scripture Study Project, a fresh and faithful study of the scriptures

that will renew your excitement for your own personal study and help you passionately teach what you're learning to others.

There's a lot of stories packed in here. This is Nephi and Lehi, their family getting the Leihona.

This is the Broken Bow experience. This is them building a ship and sailing to the promised land
