Both Teacher and Facilitator

By Jan Tolman

The Church is changing, and with it, so must we. Because we are now focusing on being home-centered, all of us are teachers and facilitators. Teachers are always going to be needed in our church lessons, but their role is being enlarged, as a facilitator, by including the entire class in the role as the […]

We live in a day when there are more temples on the earth than any other time. What is the significance of this? The answer is in many of our Patriarchal blessings. Most Latter-day Saints come from the tribe of Joseph, first by way of Ephraim, who received the birthright, then Manasseh. It is specifically […]

Much like “Integrity,” “Virtue” is a word that is better shown than talked about.   VIRTUE–THE WORLD’S DEFINITION   The dictionary states the definition of virtue as “behavior showing high moral standards.” Merriam-Webster, however, found recent evidence of how the word “virtue” is being used in our vocabulary today:   By virtue of their 7 […]

Hinckley: Chapter 17-Continue Learning

We’ve all seen the recent push, by our church, for more education, especially with the new BYU-I Pathway program. I actually have a lot of thoughts about this topic that I think I’ll just list below. Warning: They are random, but possibly thought-provoking.   Thirty or so years ago, our prophets urged women to stay […]

This lesson is about as straightforward and simple as lessons come. Simply put, follow President Hinckley’s promise of the Book of Mormon found at the end of the lesson:   “Brothers and sisters, without reservation I promise you that if you will prayerfully read the Book of Mormon, regardless of how many times you previously […]

Chapter 15 Hinckley Lesson: Holy Priesthood

The holy priesthood is one of those mysterious blessings we have been given on this earth. Women typically think it is synonymous with the men, therefore, there is no real need to understand it. The priesthood is NOT just for men, and women DO need to strive to understand it better. For someone to fight […]

August 9, 2017

| Teaching

The topic of this lesson is Self-Reliance, but the doctrine is really how to gain spiritual peace in this life. It’s an interesting parallel.   How many of us are usually fighting fires in our lives? I don’t mean the flaming kind, I mean the emergencies that come up every single day; those things that […]

Chapter 12 Hinckley Lesson: Obedience

By Jan Tolman

August 4, 2017

| Teaching

Obedience is probably one of the most basic, most misunderstood, and most difficult concepts to grasp in our religion. Yet, Pres. Hinckley said it all when he said, “Simply Live the Gospel.”   The Gospel he refers to is Jesus Christ. He is Lord and Master over all things. He loves us so much He […]
