Book Talk Tuesday - The Neil A. Maxwell Quote Book

This is less a review then a recommendation.
I was at my Mom's a couple weeks ago and she asked me if I wanted this book

Of course being the astute person I am, I said "YES!"  By some random twist of fate, she ended up with two and knew I wanted one.

I have to admit, that so far all I have done is flip through and read pieces of it, but I want to share a bit of what I have found.

Every so often in the book there is a beautiful photo that accompanies a quote.  The quotes are wonderful by themselves, but the artwork just makes it that much more sacred.

As I was pondering how I can take more from this book, I knew it would have to be along the same lines as I was thinking with scripture study.  I want to study more deeply, more meaningfully and remember what I have learned.  Have a permanent record of it as well.  Some things are too sacred to share in public so I knew that this blog was out as a place to store it all.  As many of you know, I am a list maker, a person who likes things to be nice and neatly organized for my brain.  I didn't know where to start.

Then I came across this post on Latter-Day Homeschooling by Dana.  She has generously made some scripture journaling pages to place in a 3 ring binder.  She also linked to The Redheaded Hostess.  On her blog there are scores of amazing resources to peruse.  Start here. 

As I was happily downloading things for me, I realized that my children could also benefit from this.  We are starting a new tradition for FHE.  We will be assigning a topic to study out each week on our own and discussing it for FHE each Monday.  I am really excited to see how this works.

I am looking forward to implementing this new way of study as I read and absorb the words of our prophets and our Father and His Son.  I hope that these links may be of some use to you as well.

Cheers
