The Book of Mormon book club questions
by Joseph Smith Jr. · a kit for three meetings · 13 questions · printable
Thirteen discussion questions for The Book of Mormon, grouped by three stretches of the book of about the same length, with a reading plan, themes to talk about and a sheet you can print. Two good openers: what could justify the dangers Nephi faces to secure records, and where would you draw the line? And how much weight would you give the testimony of two groups who say they saw engraved plates?
