Prepare for an interesting set of readings from the Doctrine and Covenants. The first group of readings included passages ranging from the theological and philosophical
to practical statements on church function. This list will again be highly varied, but the mix includes more texts dealing with the ministry of the Holy Spirit and issues of Eschatology (the doctrine of last things).
You may find these selections informative, inspirational, challenging, sometimes puzzling, and perhaps - in a few places - annoying. All references are from the Community of Christ (RLDS) editions. (In a few minutes a
day you can read all of the passages on this page in four or five weeks.)
