Four.

This is a simple verse from the Doctrine and Covenants that I think sums up the point of this blog very well.

"And as al have not faith, seek ye diligently and teach one another words of wisdom; yea, seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom; seek learning, even by study and also by faith."
-Doctrine and Covenants 88:118

I really, really like this verse. There are so many good books available, if we take the time to read them and learn from them. It is my hope that this summer, when I won't be taking any classes or have a whole campus of students around me, I will be able to read some great books (like the ones on the sidebar of this blog). I know it will be difficult since some of them (especially Jesus the Christ) are thick books. But I feel like it will be such a valuable experience for myself if I can knock a few of these books out this summer so that during the next school year I can focus on some of the great, literary classics that I want to read.
