President Russel M. Nelson gave us a challenge to study everything that Jesus said and did in the scriptures. President Nelson completed the project himself and said it made him “a different man.” He not only learned more about Jesus Christ but also felt a renewed devotion to Him.
We can draw closer to Christ too as we
learn of Him .
Studying His life and purpose invites His peace into our lives and helps us come to know Him and Heavenly Father.
Prepare for Camp by Starting President Nelson's Challenge!
