King Benjamin
  • “When ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God” (Mosiah 2:17).

  • He was extremely humble and worked alongside his people and always tried to serve them.

  • As king, he led the Nephites through a great war against the Lamanites and established peace among his people.

  • About 124 years before Christ’s birth. King Benjamin told his people that the mother of Christ would be named Mary (see Mosiah 3:8).

  • So many people came to hear him teach that he used a tower so more of them could hear.
