Abstract

Inspired by Hank Smith's talk, "Scripture Power", in which Hank recounts an experience in his sacrament meeting as a youth. The speaker asked Hank directly if he had a testimony of the Book of Mormon, dismissed Hank's answer, and, when the speaker later asked if Hank wanted to know why he didn't have a testimony, simply said: "Because you haven't seen the tear stains on the plates".
