Reading/Listening to the B of M


I discovered another great way to get a daily dose of the Book of Mormon in my life.
If you don't have time to read, then just listen and a lovely voice will read the Book of Mormon to you over the internet.
Go here then click on the book you want to read. Next, click on the chapter you want to read. Look to the right hand side of the page where there is a "listen" link. Click on it. Sit back and relax and a lovely voice (I'm pretty sure it is Bruce Lindsey's voice of KSLTV fame) will read to you while you (gasp) do other things...or take notes for further study.
Another cool feature is that you can read the scriptures in another language. If you speak another language, you can switch the languages by using the button on the top right side. It looks like there are about 22 different languages offered. How great is that?
If you are a member of the LDS church, you can get your membership number (from your ward clerk or from other official church documentation) and sign up to use the online scriptures for your own personal study. You can sign in and then bookmark where you are reading and also take study notes and they will be saved in your study journal for easy retrieval.

Wow, who knew?

Great information, Vonnie!! I was disappointed that they didn't have a wonderful reading voice in Spanish relating the scriptures in that language.
