In the Book of Mormon, the prophet Helaman taught his sons, “It is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation” (Helaman 5:12). Building a foundation upon Jesus Christ—which includes coming to understand, believe, and live according to His doctrine will deepen our conversion and commitment as His disciples, protect us against the influences of the adversary, and help us bless the lives of others.
To accomplish this we must develop a deeper understanding of each of the following topics and the key statements of doctrine identified with each topic:
The Godhead
The Plan of Salvation
The Atonement of Jesus Christ
The Restoration
Prophets and Revelation
Priesthood and Priesthood Keys
Ordinances and Covenants
Marriage and Family
Commandments
This summer take the time to develop a deeper understanding of each of these topics. Study them, learn them, and come to know them "like the back of your hand".
