The Book of Mormon quotes Isaiah more than any other prophet. However, many people call the words of Isaiah “too difficult to understand” or even “boring.” David, Kwaku, and Mimi all agreed that they don’t enjoy reading Isaiah when reading the Book of Mormon.

We brought our long-time friend Stephen Smoot back to the show to talk about how to better understand Isaiah and get the most out of scripture study. Stephen recently graduated with a Masters degree in Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations from the University of Toronto. He’s been involved in all-things Book of Mormon and as always, we’re very lucky to have him on the show.
