“Life is something we have to experience, really feel, not just study for with books in a library. Learning is about so much more than school. If we’re too busy studying, we miss out on the experience.”

“The scriptures are like a written “recording” of the “voice” of the Lord—a voice we feel in our hearts more than we hear with our ears. As we study the written word of God, we learn to hear His voice in the words we read. As we return repeatedly to the holy scriptures, we gain experience and confidence in hearing and feeling His voice.Five basic principles can help us learn more effectively from our personal scripture study.1. Pray for understanding and invite the help of the Holy Ghost.Begin scripture study with prayer.Ask for understanding as you study.Express gratitude as you conclude. 2. Work.Pay the price of regular and diligent study. 3. Be consistent.Set aside a specific and scheduled time each day. 4. Ponder.Think about the truths, experiences, and lessons in the scriptures.Take time—pondering cannot be forced, hurried, or rushed. 5. Write down impressions, thoughts, and feelings.Record what you learn, think, and feel.Invite the Holy Ghost to continue instruction.”

“Torah is not just a book, not just a bunch of laws, and not just a history, but so much more. The Torah is a way ofd life to learn and live, and when studied, a spiritual way to understand life as well as providing instructions on getting closer to Adonai (God). When we treat others kindly, fairly, and lovingly, both in our home, social, and business lives, we are living Torah. The "truth" is the Torah is many things simultaneously.”
