    Don't forget the parable of the snowball: listening to someone else talk about the gospel is like having snowballs thrown at you. Reading the scriptures is like making your own snowball. Taking the time to search, ponder, and pray about what you've read is like rolling the snowball around and around so that it grows and grows. So don't just listen to me - please go read for yourself so your knowledge and testimony can grow and grow!!

    This week we are talking about the benefits and drawbacks of using either paper or digital scriptures. Cindy shares results from studies that give strong support for using paper (citations below), but she also shows you features and tools in the Gospel Library app that are powerful and effective ways to enhance your digital scripture study. Whether you are in “camp paper” or “camp digital,” there are important things to consider as you choose how to best go about studying the scriptures effectively.
