This week we're diving into gospel principles — the "WHAT" of the gospel — and how they're rooted in eternal doctrine. Using Elder David A. Bednar's teachings, we break down how to spot gospel principles in scripture, then apply that method to 2 Kings 16–25, focusing on King Josiah's covenant in 2 Kings 23:3–4.

📖 This week's reading: 2 Kings 16–25

Have you ever wondered why we have all these stories in the scriptures? This week, Cindy breaks down three essential things to look for every time you read: 1) learning about Jesus Christ, 2) His doctrines (eternal truths), and 3) principles (things we can do).

Using the story of Elijah and the widow woman from 1 Kings 17, Cindy walks through how to apply this framework to any scripture story — and shows how even one short passage can teach us about the Savior's care, the role of prophets, and the principles of faith and obedience.

📖 This week's reading: 1 Kings 12–13 and 17–22

In this episode:

  • Why we read the scriptures in the first place
  • The 3 things to look for in every story
  • A deep dive into Elijah and the widow woman
  • A journaling challenge to make your study more meaningful

After several weeks of a break, Cindy Young is back with the third and final segment of her Power of the Pencil series, where she teaches you ways that writing can elevate your scripture study. In this episode she talks specifically about 2 different approaches to journaling - one that you can do as you study, verse by verse, and the other at the end of your study sessions. She encourages you to listen to the Spirit either way, and to prayerfully ask, "what should I be learning today" as you write your thoughts.

Note - the episode number indicates which week of the Come Follow Me curriculum each episode aligns with. Due to planned and unplanned circumstances, episodes of this podcast jump from 15 to 26. This is not a mistake and you are not missing out on the episodes in between - there are none. Thank you for understanding that life gets crazy sometimes. <3

In part two of “The Power of the Pencil,” Cindy Young teaches how annotating scriptures—writing short notes, single words, tags, or questions in the margins—can turn passive reading into active study. She explains tagging story sections at the top of pages to quickly find and review specific scripture stories, and highlights this week’s reading in Exodus 14–18, including the Red Sea crossing and manna. Cindy shares simple annotation ideas such as writing “WOW,” naming unnamed principles like faith or courage, using digital tags for quick annotating, and writing questions beside underlined phrases, using Exodus 14:13 (“stand still”) as an example. She encourages starting small, suggests sticky notes, bookmarks, and wide-margin editions, and points viewers to a free worksheet on her website.

Cindy Young introduces part one of her “Power of the Pencil” series on Primarily Scripture, explaining that while some people choose not to mark their scriptures, marking can help turn reading into studying by increasing interaction, retention, and recall. She shares childhood experiences with a red pencil, then gives beginner-friendly ways to start: use multiple colored pencils (with or without a strict color-coding system), switch colors to track ideas, and mark selectively by underlining or highlighting key words and phrases rather than whole verses. She also suggests using symbols like hearts, stars, and question marks to note love of God, memorization candidates, and questions to ponder over time, emphasizing that marking methods can change and should prioritize spiritual learning over aesthetics.

In this final part of her Understanding the Scriptures series, Cindy Young explains three types of scripture passages you’ll encounter—informational, stories, and sermons—how to identify them, and how to approach each. Informational sections (like genealogies, land descriptions, and laws) can be list-heavy and difficult, so she suggests skimming or even skipping long informational chapters if you’re not ready for a deep dive. Stories are easiest to follow, so she recommends retelling the events, looking for messages and character choices, noticing sequence, and applying principles to your life. Sermons focus on doctrine, commandments, warnings, and promises from prophets or the Lord, so she advises looking for truths taught, personal application, and what they teach about Jesus Christ. Come back next month to learn all about how using a pencil can enhance your scripture study.

In part 4 of her understanding the scriptures series, Cindy Young explains the power of “replacing” words to improve understanding. She teaches three ways to do this: first, identify antecedents by replacing confusing pronouns with the nouns they refer to; second, replace unfamiliar or old-fashioned terms with modern synonyms, noting that “my lord” can mean “you” respectfully and that “lord” can refer to a person while “Lord” refers to Jehovah or God; and third, insert your own name and life experiences into passages, using Joseph’s words in Genesis 45:4–5 to apply lessons about forgiveness, trials, and seeing God’s hand in difficult situations.

She explains that the manual skips some chapters and verses, encouraging beginners to focus on more relevant, doctrine-rich passages and return to harder sections later. She teaches viewers to look for lessons in the stories, using Joseph’s refusal of Potiphar’s wife in Genesis 39 to identify adultery and the need for sexual purity, then to apply the lesson personally. Her final tip emphasizes inviting the Holy Ghost—through prayer, pondering, worthiness, or music—since “interpretations belong to God,” and the Lord being with Joseph models how spiritual help leads to understanding.

Don't forget the parable of the snowball:  listening to someone else talk about the gospel is like having snowballs thrown at you. Reading the scriptures is like making your own snowball. Taking the time to search, ponder, and pray about what you've read is like rolling the snowball around and around so that it grows and grows. So don't just listen to me - please go read for yourself so your knowledge and testimony can grow and grow!!

This week Cindy Young from Primarily Scripture shares simple study tips for Genesis 24–33, noting the heavy reading load and encouraging viewers to set or adjust goals to stay current if needed. Building on using modern Bible translations for understanding, she emphasizes returning to the King James Version to become comfortable with scriptural language, comparing it to learning a foreign language. She demonstrates breaking verses into phrases and looking up unfamiliar words like “peradventure,” and suggests paraphrasing passages in your own words. Cindy also highlights how Hebrew name meanings in footnotes (such as Reuben and Simeon) add depth, and applies Jacob’s “wrestle” and the name Israel (“let God prevail”) as encouragement to persist through difficult passages for spiritual understanding, line upon line.

We’ve talked all this month about finding Jesus in the scriptures, but this week’s tip is just a little different. Cindy will help you to find the pattern that Abraham used to unlock knowledge and connection with the Lord, and isn’t that what scripture study is all about?! To find that pattern, Cindy helps you look for action words, their objects (yes, a little like in English class!), and to rephrase them so they apply to scripture study. Don’t forget to download the free worksheet, which will help you find this pattern, too. Once you find the pattern, you can identify the secret ingredient that ties it all together, bringing power to Abraham’s life and to your scripture study!

We find so many great lessons, and we don't even do all the activities found on the free worksheets!
Stay tuned for a few fun bloopers at the end.

00:00 Intro
01:40 Be Sure You Understand the Story
04:41 Look for a Lesson - Activity 1
07:31 Put Your Own Name in the Scriptures - Activity 2
10:10 Ask Questions, Ponder the Answers - Activity 3
16:58 Mark Your Scriptures in a FUN Way - Activity 4

Cindy and this week’s guest, Felicity, discuss how great it is to study scriptures, and Felicity tells what she likes about the new study worksheets. 

They give a very brief story overview of what happens in the 5 chapters of study for this week. 

Cindy and Felicity read 1st Nephi 2: 12-17, with Cindy reading direct scriptural text, and then Felicity giving the modern-day version, which she reads from the free worksheet Cindy has created. Cindy asks Felicity what she learned from these verses, and they discuss how Nephi DID SOMETHING when he had a problem, how that’s an example we can follow, and they mark it in their scriptures. They discuss what it means to have a soft heart. 

They look at two of the verses and find a connection between the two, and also an important connection to their own lives. Felicity and Cindy each tell of a time the Lord visited them. 

Cindy and Felicity discuss the next study page of the worksheets which focuses on 1st Nephi 3: 1-7. Felicity has done the Memorization activity from the worksheet, and Cindy reads a quote about memorizing. 

Together Cindy and Felicity find 3 action words in 1 Ne 3:4, and they discuss how they can apply these action words to their own lives. 

Stay tuned for a few fun bloopers at the end.

Cindy and Vienna continue their discussion about 1st Nephi 2:1 and how the Jews felt about Lehi. There are 4 tips interspersed throughout the episode, but one in particular is especially great for kids, because it's something they're already good at doing: using their imaginations! Cindy and Vienna discuss how Lehi did the right thing even when it was hard, and how learning from scripture examples can help us prepare for the future. The Personal Study Challenge for today is to read the next few verses and imagine yourself in the story.

Quorra is back to study with Cindy and today they read 1st Nephi 1:17. Breaking it down into shorter phrases helps them to be sure they understand as they go. Quorra learns the meaning of "abridgement," and they find repeated thoughts. These repeated thoughts turn out to be a a chiasmus, and they mark in their margins so they'll remember the chiasmus the next time they read this verse.

In this episode Cindy Young continues to study 1st Nephi 1:16 with Quorra. But it seems like the same thing is repeated in this verse, which can be confusing sometimes. Repeated ideas are actually common in ancient writings like the Bible, however, and when repeated in reverse it is called a CHIASMUS. Finding chiasmus in The Book of Mormon can strengthen your testimony that this book is indeed ancient scripture, and watching for the repeated ideas can help you to understand what you read a little better.

Cindy Young is joined by 9yo Quorra, who says even though she received scriptures when she was baptized, she doesn't read them very often. One reason is because they are hard to understand. She and Cindy read 1st Nephi 1:16, and use 3 techniques as they go: break it down into shorter phrases, define big words, and look for connecting words. As they do these things, they discover that what they're reading is actually pretty simple, it's just written in an old fashioned way.

Cindy wonders how Lehi didn't have extreme anxiety after hearing about the destruction of Jerusalem, but by backing up and reviewing verses 8-10, Cindy and Isaac find the reason for Lehi's rejoicing.  Cindy reminds us that, "If ever we have a problem... just back up a little bit and refocus on what we already know. ... And what is the most important thing? God, angels, Jesus Christ, the apostles... all these things are going to get us through."

The "connecting word" we read reminds us to look for the connection, and that's how we find a "list." From there we will talk about how to apply this to "yourself," because of course that's the only way that scriptures are meaningful at all - if they mean something TO YOU and point you towards Jesus.

Host Cindy Young wraps up her visit with 12yo Ashlyn and they discuss what they learned. Ashlyn's biggest takeaway is that you'll miss things if you just read the scriptures quickly, and she mentions that there's probably still more to find in the verses they studied. Cindy encourages Ashlyn to do the "homework" of recording her thoughts in a journal and diving deeper into the scriptures herself. Stay tuned for fun bloopers at the end.

In this Primarily Scripture sneak peek, Vienna and I discuss the importance of scripture study to prepare to go to the temple, and also because it is the last days. There is a lot of evil in the world (2 Timothy 3:1-5; 2 Nephi 26:20-22) and many people call evil things good and good things evil (Isaiah 5:20). Therefore reading scriptures to strengthen your testimony and fight against evil influences is REALLY IMPORTANT! Full episodes launching soon!

Don't forget the parable of the snowball:  listening to someone else talk about the gospel is like having snowballs thrown at you. Reading the scriptures is like making your own snowball. Taking the time to search, ponder, and pray about what you've read is like rolling the snowball around and around so that it grows and grows. So don't just listen to me - please go read for yourself so your knowledge and testimony can grow and grow!!
