Book of Mormon

I just finished reading the Book of Mormon all the way through. I think that was the first time I have read it cover to cover. I have started it quite a few times and gotten half way through. Cordell challenged me to read it cover to cover. I am always reading different books but haven't read the scriptures like I should. I read it like a novel and got a lot of inspiration from it by reading it that way. It was a lot more entertaining and easier for me to understand why it is such an important book. I am going to read the doctrine and covenants next and will read it the same way. I know other people read them differently. I was able to feel the spirit so much more reading it as a novel. My mind was very open. I love the Book of Mormon. It has so much to teach us if we would just read it with an open heart and open mind.
