Occasional gospel study is not enough to fortify class members against the temptations and deceptions of the adversary. Gospel learning must be centered in daily efforts at home, including personal and family study.

Daily personal scripture study provides a consistent opportunity for teachers and students to learn the gospel, develop testimony, and hear the voice of the Lord. Teachers should consistently teach students the importance of daily personal scripture study.

Teachers can also encourage each student to set aside time every day for personal scripture study and provide regular opportunities in class to share some of the things they are learning and feeling. As teachers encourage daily scripture study, they should be careful to not embarrass or discourage any students who may struggle to study the scriptures on their own.

Students with reading or other learning disabilities should be given the option to study the scriptures in a format that may be better suited for their needs.
