![]() “The leaders of the Church are setting an example in simplifying the work to help extend and increase the blessings of the Lord to individuals and families around the world,” explained Sister Michelle D. I also found this effective because then they couldn't rebut with "maybe that's in your Bible.Steady improvements to websites, mobile applications, scripture products, curriculum and other materials produced by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have been made in recent years as the Church has engaged in a conscious effort to simplify and improve its offerings to members, allowing them to focus on the core purposes of the gospel in their personal and family study. Most of the people I taught were Catholic, so if I needed to read a verse in the Bible, I'd ask to use theirs. ![]() I often left my Bible at home, and brought with me pamphlets and pass-along cards, giveaway copies of the Book of Mormon, and my triple. As far as they can tell at a glance, you're just reading out of another section of the Bible.Īlso, if you are in an area where you walk or ride bikes a lot, you're going to want to lighten your load as much as possible. You want people to read it, but they don't see you reading it. My focus is more on the Book of Mormon, though. Also, your investigators will likely have their own Bible to look at stuff through, and it will be easier to teach with the same one book. And if you ever run into anyone who doesn't believe we use the Bible, you can just pull out your King James and prove them wrong without trying to explain how the other three books relate. Third, since these will be your missionary scriptures, they make for good visual props, especially when talking about the stick of Judah and the stick of Joseph. You can flip through them easier, and when reading in bed, or on a couch is just easier with smaller books. Second, because you can separate them, they are easier to handle. ![]() The book bags will also have pockets for pencils, visual aids, and your discussion notes. I say this for a few reasons.įirst, they have book bags that are really nice, which will make them work just like a quad, but you can separate them if you need to. I would go for the separate triple combo and Bible, rather than a quad. i think it's largely your choice as per your preference and comfort :) sometimes they even have two sets, a compact quad and a standard size set as well. from my experience of seeing what kind of scriptures missionaries use, it's fairly split between the quad and the triple/bible set, but all have been indexed. However, i'm most likely going to be getting a quad, indexed, genuine leather and blue, as my next set. there's also a set available for the bible. they've worked pretty well, but bend easy. I purchased a set of tabs from Deseret Book for the triple because i was starting to get frustrated at being so slow to look things up when i had a particular impression or thought. i had a hard enough time bringing myself to even mark them with a light pencil line at first because i didn't want to marr up this great gift, but eventually i prayed about it in a trip to the temple, and realized they would want me to mark them up to my hearts content and feed upon the words of Christ. it was my gift after i was baptized and confirmed a member of the church a year ago (AH!! ) by my missionaries, with their testimonies written in the bible. i have the standard triple combination and bible, with the black econ. I'm also looking at a new set of scriptures.
