The title of Lesson 38 is “Beside Me There Is No Saviour”. The purpose of this lesson is: “To help class members understand that Jesus Christ is incomparable in his devotion to his people and that he has a great work for them to do.” For this lesson church members spend the class period reading and […]
The name of this lesson is “The Glory of Zion will be a Defense” and it focuses on the book of Isaiah chapters 1-6. Working in this ministry day in and day out sometimes brings a sense of “it’s just another day at the office”. That is until. Until the time when we encounter teachings […]
When my kids were little we were avid fans of the show “America’s Funniest Videos”. As the show portrays time and again the disastrous results of some of the things people thought were novel ideas you can’t help but watch the outcome of their soon to be calamities. That’s what it was like when I […]
The name of this week’s lesson was “I Will Betroth Thee unto Me in Righteousness” and it focuses on Hosea’s marriage to his adulterous wife Gomer to compare it with the idolatrous behavior of Israel. The teacher is instructed to ask members on several occasions to explain what Israel was doing wrong and then compares […]
The main focus of this lesson is on missionary work and how it’s the Mormon’s responsibility to share their gospel all around the world. It touches on the story of Jonah and Micah and how they are examples of Mormonism in action. The title to the third point in their lesson caught my attention. It […]
I had to chuckle a little when I glanced over this next lesson which is on the book of Job. What I found funny (and not in a Ha-Ha way) is this is the same book of the bible my pastor has taken the past couple of months to go over with us on Wednesday […]
This lesson once again finds the Mormon Sunday School class bulldozing through not one, but two books of the Bible. It covers some of the teachings in Proverbs and gives only a brief nod to Ecclesiastes with no real “study” to be found. I know, by now I shouldn’t be surprised or taken aback by […]
The name of this week’s lesson is “Come to the House of the Lord” and it centers on activities that take place in the OT temple and the LDS temples today. I’m starting this review with quoting the very last thing the teacher’s instruction manual said for lesson #30. “Challenge class members to be more […]
The name of this week’s lesson is “He Took Up the Mantle of Elijah” and it centers on the story of when Elisha took Elijah’s mantle to become God’s prophet for Israel. The lesson focuses on what Mormons can do to increase their willingness to follow the counsel of Church leaders and the instructors are […]
The name of the LDS Sunday School Lesson for week #28 is “After the Fire a Still Small Voice” and it centers on 1st Kings and the prophet Elijah. My heart hurts. It hurts because of the lies being fed to the Mormon people week after week through the onslaught of misleading statements and downright blatant lies about […]
