If you knew that the Lord Jesus Christ would spend the day with you and all who would come to the occasion from your home stake, what do you think He would teach you? What do you think He would do? What would be the most important truths He could communicate with you? What would YOU want to know from Him? Let’s explore these thoughts and explore the record of actual witnesses to such a day.

Come, Follow Me for Sunday School: “Ye Are the Children of the Covenant”, 3 Nephi 20-26
The ministry of Jesus Christ was divided into two parts: pre- and post-resurrection. In 3 Nephi, we are blessed to receive both parts, which He calls “the fulness of the gospel”.
Come Follow Me Book of Mormon Podcast #41: “Behold, My Joy Is Full,” 3 Nephi 17–19
Can you imagine the joy that would fill your souls if you were witnesses to the visitation of the Lord Jesus Christ? How could you possibly describe your feelings? How could you even handle the happiness that would overwhelm your whole being? But it would be that much difficult when it was time for Him to leave.
Come, Follow Me for Sunday School: “Behold, My Joy is Full”, 3 Nephi 17-19
The power of these chapters to help us hear Him depends not on what we do by reading them, but upon what we do once we’ve finished reading them. If we rush off without a second thought, they will wither—forgotten in shallow ground. But if we take a moment to ponder, ask, listen, or just send a text to someone about them, the words of these chapters can change us like they changed the Nephites.
Come, Follow Me Podcast #40: “I Am the Law, and the Light”, 3 Nephi 12-16
The Sermon on the Mount is one of the most densely packed three chapters in all of holy writ. As an added bonus, when the Lord visited His other sheep in the ancient Americas, one of the first things He did was gave the same Sermon on the Mount text with some additional insights. When the Lord purposely repeats something, I think He really wants our attention!
Come, Follow Me for Sunday School: “I am the Law and the Light”, 3 Nephi 12-16
Cookies must have the right ingredients, mixed in the proper order, and carefully prepared and baked. Similarly, the principles taught in 3 Nephi 12 may also be essential ingredients to discipleship and have an order for development in our lives.
Come Follow Me Podcast #39: “Arise and Come Forth Unto Me”, 3 Nephi 8-11
How can you not be just thrilled with this week’s readings? The entire Book of Mormon has been centered on one Person—Jesus Christ, the Savior and Redeemer—and His coming to the earth and the promised visit to this righteous branch of the tribe of Joseph in the Americas. Lehi testified He would come. Nephi saw Him in vision that He would come--and in this week’s exciting readings—HE CAME!
