Thank you. I've struggled to stay active lately- just laziness on sundays. An ad for this came up on one of the other videos i was watching. This sounded really interesting, and the spirit testified and I made it to church today for the first time in about 9 months. thank you. you are making a difference.

[danielvergaray]

I saw a video recently that really tested me and my faith, but this has helped me restore it, thank you.

[debbiemcclure]

Nothing can replace the depth of feeling that I obtain when reading the verses. Evidence is frosting for the cake. But the book can stand on its own.

[azpod]

Incredible and straightforward information about the BoM. My testimony isn’t built on this, but I’m one that enjoys these kinds of conversations created around The Book of Mormon.
Thank you!

[JasonAllred]

For me, the greatest evidence is that by applying the teachings in The Book of Mormon, I have had Christ's grace and redeeming power save and change me. Such a powerful book!

[JulioCarrillo-wcto]

I’m a convert to this great work work. My conversion was one of hearing the gospel by a cousin who joined the church and was on a mission when I was in the army. I knew it true right away, also I was given a physical witness. So it was confirmed by the spirit to my heart, mind and soul. This just continues to confirm my beliefs. We were told as missionaries by a visiting 70 in Argentina that the time will come when there will be physical proof of the Book of Mormon. That person was Elder Didier. For those that require physical proof, there it is, the rest is still up to you. And you know what you need to do. Great program.

[ranjanty]

So thankful for Scripture Central and all those who make it possible. Yall definitely bring the Scriptures to Life.

[tererere]

I raised my children reading the Book of Mormon while they growing up in this beautiful gospel even thou they went away from the gospel they are slowly coming back love the Book of Mormon

We watch everything on YouTube on our TV so we rarely comment because we can't see the comment field, but that doesn't mean we aren't all over SCRIPTURE CENTRAL! You are all a blessing to us!

I first read the Book of Mormon in 2013 as a high schooler after a friend invited me to take Moroni's challenge. I couldn't put the book down. After I finished it, I had an incredible personal experience; I knew without a doubt that the Book of Mormon was true. The light and peace I experienced after praying to know blew me away. Every time I read the Book of Mormon, I feel that same peace and joy.

Though I may not need geological and archeological evidence to bolster my testimony, it is very much welcomed. It helps me imagine what the peoples of the Book of Mormon may have experienced. Thank you for this incredible video!

[RaeannPeck]

This is SOOOO well done. I too have had a deep conviction about the truthfulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and of the Book of Mormon, the Bible and other modern day scripture. This doesn't change what I already know by the Holy Spirit, but it's interesting, and Scott makes it fun.
Hi Scott !!

[annefeyray]

Enjoyed watching .
Indeed a marvelous work!

[jmhatutube]

Love, love, love this. I’ve had a strong testimony since I was young. It was solidified on my mission. Because of my career path, logic has become an often frustration. The evidences I’ve personally found help to calm a somewhat skeptical mind. Things just need to make logical sense. But whenever I have had questions, I pray I can find the often logical answer. This has never failed me. Not only have I received my answers, but my understanding is deepened significantly.

I love the Book of Mormon and it’s testimony of the divinity of Jesus Christ. I’d be lost without it.

[brighamsunday]

All of the supposed evidences they explored are great and interesting, but the power of this episode came with the host's final testimony. That is where I felt it the most. The book is true, and it is POWERFUL!

[WatchingTheEndBegin]

This book is more true than any book on earth. Others will know it is true by asking God through fervent prayer. I am so grateful for the Book of Mormon. Thank you for this first episode. Keep it going.

[davidk.sylvester]

We have watched all the episodes and the exclusive interviews and they are ALL FANTASTIC!!!! Talk about testimony builders!! The entire team does an outstanding job and we greatly anticipate each new episode! Thank you to the entire team and Scripture Central!

[robbhays]

I already knew about NHM. Never knew about the Ishmael grave. Wow. Blowing my mind over here.

[walrusIQ]

I had the opportunity of visiting Tiahuanacu with my second grade class in Bolivia, four years before missionaries shared the Book of Mormon with my family. When I learned the meaning of the symbolisms shown in the ruins (monolito Ponce and La Puerta del Sol) I felt that I had before me a sure testimony of the authenticity of the book. Moreover, I felt a deeper connection to my ancestry in that land than I had ever felt before.

[briandeis]

Thank you, Scott and Team. As a new member I can really appreciate these wondeful documentaries, and the interesting evidence displayed!

[dawns]

I’m LDS and I have a strong testimony that the Book of Mormon is true and is a testament of Jesus Christ. This is going to be a wonderful series and I can’t wait to see the rest of it. The journey that it takes us on is going to be educational as well as fun! I’m excited 🥰43:02
