Book of Mormon 90 Day Challenge

My Brother Trey and I are going to do this Book of Mormon 90 day reading challenge.
You're welcome to join us! I'm excited! It will be awesome to have this experience and deepen my relationship with Trey. I am going to highlight all the times that Christ is mentioned. I am sure it will be hundreds of times, maybe more. I know that The Book of Mormon is true. It has blessed my life, and I am thankful for it because it helps to clarify the Bible. It does not replace it. Read together, The Bible and The Book of Mormon are the perfect compliment to each other and testaments of Jesus Christ.

"In a meeting with the Twelve Apostles, the Prophet Joseph Smith “told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book” (History of the Church, 4:461; see also theintroduction to the Book of Mormon)." See BoM Study Guide

One of the modern-day apostles, President Marion G. Romney said:
“I feel certain that if, in our homes, parents will read from the Book of Mormon prayerfully and regularly, both by themselves and with their children, the spirit of that great book will come to permeate our homes and all who dwell therein. The spirit of reverence will increase; mutual respect and consideration for each other will grow. The spirit of contention will depart. Parents will counsel their children in greater love and wisdom. Children will be more responsive and submissive to the counsel of their parents. Righteousness will increase. Faith, hope, and charity—the pure love of Christ—will abound in our homes and lives, bringing in their wake peace, joy, and happiness” (in Conference Report, Apr. 1980, 90; or Ensign, May 1980, 67). See BoM Study Guide Ch 1
