I know this is a little late in the response, but I did take the challenge and read the BOM and it was for the first time in my life. I was baptized 26 years ago and thought I had a testimony until I actually read the BOM and prayed about it. I didn't get a still small voice response from the Spirit...I was overwhelmed with a vengeance. I was as if the Lord had been waiting for me to read the book and then earnestly pray about it's truthfulness. I have since become Temple worthy and was sealed with my wife and son. I thank God for our Prophets challenge.

I too, am very thankful for that challenge. I took it, and finished it on new year's eve. It was the first time I've ever read it all the way through, even though I was born into the church. It sparked a whole new wave of spirituality in me, and helped me accomplish a lot of missionary work, as well as get back on track with my life. I'm already reading it again...and learning new things from it that I missed the first time around.
