Perfecting the Saints — One Lesson at a Time
The post Jenny Smith is a fool, Elder Christofferson. appeared first on Jenny Smith’s LDS Ideas.
I am ashamed to admit this, but when Elder Christofferson was called to be an apostle, I was unimpressed. “Why did they call that guy?” (1) I wondered. He seemed less polished and charismatic than what I was expecting given the latest crop of super human apostles we seem to be getting lately. I was […]

Whoa. It’s been a while. :) We ended up having class canceled a couple of times due to poor weather this month (unplanned), we missed one day because school was out (planned), and I’m pretty sure that I’ve only taught three times since my last post. D&C 106-108, 137 I’m not sure why D&C 137 was tossed in with this material, though I will say it did end up fitting…

We had a school holiday and so it has been two weeks since our last lesson. This was a super interesting experience. Another random person showed up for class. As class started going on, it came out that she had studied with the Mormons before briefly, and her husband was a “priest in the Mormon […]

The post D&C 76 – Weeks 1 and 2 appeared first on Jenny Smith’s Awesome Mormon Stuff.
I was really nervous about teaching D&C 76. There is so much information, and since I only teach weekly, I was pretty confident we would not get to all the material without rushing. Additionally, because I teach adults it’s extremely difficult for me to judge how much people already know about the harder/deeper doctrines of […]

Additionally, because I teach adults it’s extremely difficult for me to judge how much people already know about the harder/deeper doctrines of the gospel, like the degrees of glory.

The post The activity that kills you but won’t die appeared first on Jenny Smith’s Awesome Mormon Stuff.
Well, it came up again on our Seminary Teacher’s Facebook group–The Activity That Won’t Die: the Flight 227 airplane crash activity. I was astonished to see it appear on the page, actually. I thought I had squelched it years ago with my forum posts regarding the First Presidency letter warning members not to wear all […]

The post I am a Machine appeared first on Jenny Smith’s Awesome Mormon Stuff.
I worked on MormonShare.com over the weekend and was able to get a new Feeds importer working properly and I indexed about 200 new items to the website by hand, and probably automatically imported another 300. Now they are tagged so they’ll show up in the activities, printables section, and even the sharing time lesson […]

The post Stolen Image! appeared first on Jenny Smith’s Awesome Mormon Stuff.
Omigosh. I just about died this afternoon when I visited what may be the oldest Young Women website on the internet and found MY IMAGE being used on t-shirts this individual has been selling for years. This person was one of the first, if not THE first, to sell Young Women helps in book form. […]

The post Must the presidency sit at the front during meetings? appeared first on Jenny Smith’s Awesome Mormon Stuff.
I’ve been in three Relief Society presidencies, and each group has had someone ask if they have to sit at at the front of the classroom during meetings. In the past I’ve said it’s up to you, but today I stumbled on this article from Elder Boyd K. Packer. He says something different: The things […]
