Parents tell us that "Scripture Study for Latter-day Saint Families has worked miracles for their family scripture study. "The scriptures are now coming to life for my children," said one parent. "We have seen our children share their feelings, thoughts, and testimonies through our discussions. They are participating gladly, which is a miracle in itself." In this wonderful resource book, parents will find activities, object lessons, stories, discussion questions, quotations, and insights to help them lead their families through the Doctrine and Covenants. Simply review the material for the section or verses you are studying and select those teaching ideas you think would be most helpful to your family.

Noted teacher and gospel scholar David J. Ridges brings the Doctrine and Covenants to life with his well-known teaching skills. As with his other books in the Gospel Studies Series, the full text of the scripture is included, and in-the-verse notes provide a highly effective, unique teaching tool. Notes between the verses provide additional insights and teach principles and doctrines. Join the thousands of readers who have experienced spiritual growth from reading and pondering the books in this series.
