If you’ve ever wondered, “What have church leaders taught about this verse?” then the Scripture Citation Index is for you. It allows to look up a specific verse and see what has been said about that verse in General Conference. It also allows you to look up a specific speaker (e.g., Elder David A.

The Scripture Citation Index is available as a website, on iPad/iPhones and Android devices.
