As with others before him, Jacob, son of Rebekah and Isaac, receives a new name from the Lord that indicates something the Lord desires or foresees he can become. Jacob's name change is an interesting one: from Jacob, which means "supplanter" or "one who grasps or clings", to Israel, which at least means, as President Nelson has taught us, "one with whom God prevails". This week we study Gen 28-33 and dig into the account, not just to see that letting God prevail is important, but to see exactly how to do it.

How (and what) should I read (in) the Book of Mormon?

There are some important questions we can ask as we begin our study of the Book of Mormon (and/or repeatedly during our study throughout the year) that can make all the difference in what we are able to draw from it. In this miniseries we'll ask those questions, seek for some answers, and share some ideas that could empower a study of this sacred text.
