Questions

Verse 26

  • Why was the Lord so quick to answer Lehi's prayers, given the lack of faith he had demonstrated?

Verse 27

  • What things did the Liahona communicate to Lehi and his family that caused them to "fear and tremble exceedingly?"

Verse 28

  • It is relatively simple to see the Liahona as a metaphor for other things in our spiritual lives that “work according to the faith and diligence and heed which we . . . give unto them.” What are some of those things? Why is our spiritual life like that?

Verse 29

  • Nephi himself draws a lesson from the Liahona: “by small means the Lord can bring about great things.” Why might the Lord choose to work by small means? What are some of the small means in your own life that have brought about great ends?

Verse 30

  • Is this the first time that Nephi has gotten into a mountain by his own effort?
