251.1: The Church in Nauvoo (D&C Gospel Doctrine Lesson 29, Updated)

Building the Kingdom of God in Nauvoo, Illinois

 

The period the Saints lived in Nauvoo was one of cooperation and outpourings of revelation and spiritual blessings. In addition to covering this history, this update addresses our relationship to history itself–it isn’t everyone’s passion, which is why it is important for us all to teach and learn from each other, benefiting from different gifts and interests.
