Doctrine & Covenants/Church History 2015-01-04 10:28:00

 I brought in my son’s mission calls and passed them around. Most of them in the class had never seen one before. They loved looking through them.

I made small suitcases and gave one to each of them…caution, the girls LOVED them, the boys not so much :)
They were to copy down in their suitcases what to pack and what to leave behind.

I asked the question, “What is a missionary supposed to pack?”

Then I asked “What should a missionary leave behind”
I was looking for “sin”
To help students understand why it is important for prospective missionaries to repent of their sins,  we read aloud the following statements by Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

“In this battle between good and evil, you cannot play for the adversary whenever temptation comes along and then expect to suit up for the Savior at temple and mission time as if nothing has happened. … God will not be mocked. …

“… The Lord has drawn lines of worthiness for those called to labor with Him in this work. No missionary can be unrepentant of sexual transgression or profane language or pornographic indulgence and then expect to challenge others to repent of those very things! … The Spirit will not be with you, and the words will choke in your throat as you speak them. You cannot travel down what Lehi called ‘forbidden paths’ [1 Nephi 8:28] and expect to guide others to the ‘strait and narrow’ [2 Nephi 31:18] one—it can’t be done” (“We Are All Enlisted,” Ensign orLiahona, Nov. 2011, 45).

Elder Holland:

“Whoever you are and whatever you have done, you can be forgiven. Every one of you … can leave behind any transgression with which you may struggle. It is the miracle of forgiveness; it is the miracle of the Atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ. But you cannot do it without an active commitment to the gospel, and you cannot do it without repentance where it is needed. I am asking you … to be active and be clean. If required, I am asking you to get active and get clean” (“We Are All Enlisted,” 45).

D&C 28 Satan imitates

By [email protected] (Pam Mueller) President James E. Faust of the First Presidency cautioned us to avoid activities that may invite Satan’s influence into our lives: “Satan is not an enlightening subject. I consider him to be the great imitator. … “It is not good practice to become intrigued by Satan and his mysteries. No good can come from getting close to evil. Like playing with fire, it is too easy…

D&C 28 Satan imitates
President James E. Faust of the First Presidency cautioned us to avoid activities that may invite Satan’s influence into our lives:

“Satan is not an enlightening subject. I consider him to be the great imitator. …

“It is not good practice to become intrigued by Satan and his mysteries. No good can come from getting close to evil. Like playing with fire, it is too easy to get burned. … The only safe course is to keep well distanced from him and any of his wicked activities or nefarious practices. The mischief of devil worship, sorcery, witchcraft, voodooism, casting spells, black magic, and all other forms of demonism should always be avoided” (“The Forces That Will Save Us,” Ensign, Jan. 2007, 5).


In 1830, the Prophet Joseph Smith encountered a challenge because Church members did not understand the order of revelation in the Church. Hiram Page claimed to receive revelations for the Church through the medium of a special stone, and some Church members, including Oliver Cowdery, believed him. Shortly before a Church conference that was held on September 26, 1830, the Lord revealed truths that helped Oliver Cowdery and others understand the order of revelation in the Church.

Today’s Recharge

Hello Friends,         The 2015 New Year is almost here; a time we all reflect on how to be a little better and more Christ like. With that in mind, I have started a blog called “Today’s Recharge” where each weekday I post a quick powerful thought from the scriptures (mostly D&C right now) to help re-energize a person’s mind and spirit. You can think of it as nourishment from the scriptures to help us be the men and women of God we were meant […]

Help thou mine unbelief

By Monique Christensen Monique Christensen: Off our current topics, but I need help. I’m trying to find the video for Mark 9:24, “Help thou mine unbelief”. I’ve searched all over the bible videos and seminary and institute websites. I know I showed it to my class during New Testament a few years back. It was the best rendition of the story I’ve seen. Anyone know where to find it? (48…
