Thank you for sharing.
I know the exact moment the Book of Mormon is true. On a foggy February morning, the missionaries had just given me a copy of the Book of Mormon before talking about it, or even telling me about the Church. That evening I started reading, and before even praying about what I was reading, I came to the end of Second Nephi, and came to the last word, AMEN, the Holy Ghost just engulfed me with the truth, and I felt as if I was floating in the air. The experience left me absolutely breathless!!! When the feeling passed, I immediately picked up reading at the Book of Jacob, and half way through reading furiously the Book of Mormon - and I I just I fell into a sleep of exhaustion!. When the Missionaries subsequently came to visit me I said: "I want to know every thing. Give me a list of books to read." Then gave me a list of six books, and and when I was finished reading, I was baptized six months later. It has been an incredible journey!

I know this young man and watched him go through this. What a joy to see his life change and see him become who he is today. I know his family was very happy for his choices too.
