You would think that the shortest multiple choice quiz in D&C 19 would be a no-brainer. But you and I struggle with it all the time.
D&C 19:23 is pure gold—learn of Christ, listen to His words, and you’ll find peace. Martin Harris had a choice: let his past define him or trust the Lord and move forward. Same goes for us.
