How do we apply our hearts to understanding?

Thomas R. Valletta

“It is significant that Abinadi invokes ‘the heart’ as the way to understand the things of God. … The heart is the core of life and strength. In the ancient world it included the mind, spirit, and soul—one’s entire emotional and mental makeup. … But more importantly, the heart was the very thing Noah and the priests needed to have changed, and yet they would not (Alma 5:13–14)” (Ogden and Skinner, Book of Mormon, 1:334–35).
