Come Follow Me | 3 Nephi 8-11

Dru and Marianna discuss some of the most read chapters of the Book of Mormon – the appearance of the Savior to the Nephites after His resurrection. Dru talks about how these chapters were pivotal in her own conversion to the gospel. Even though so many signs had been given, the people were still surprised by the signs of His death. Three hours of extreme devastation can feel like a long time. The symbols of darkness and light were very much a part of this story. The Nephites groaned in sadness for the loss of their loved ones and their cities and homes. But the darkness gave way to light when the Savior, the light of the world, descended to the temple in Bountiful. There, the Savior taught the people who were at the temple. We can hear Him in our temples today. It truly is the House of the Lord. We can find Christ there – His peace, joy, and love. There were 2,500 people at the temple. Each person was invited to feel His hands and feet. Jesus cares about the individual testimonies to know for themselves that He was their Resurrected Lord and Savior. We can each gain a personal witness of Him.
