To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
This General Conference Odyssey post is on the Saturday morning session of October 1982. After reading this week’s session of talks I went to Sacrament meeting and listened to the speaker quote from this very talk. Of all things!! The talk I’d like to focus on today is David B. Haight’s talk, “Love All.” We hear […]
Just think, Relief Society class will be held only two times each month. Is that a good thing, or a bad thing? Hopefully, you have read enough on my website to see that this isn’t a good or bad thing, but in order to obey our prophet and help him gather Israel, Relief Society leaders […]
A General Conference Odyssey post. Years ago, while teaching a Gospel Doctrine class, I was to cover Ephesians. The first part was about marriage and the second part was the Armor of God. Who doesn’t like the armor of God lesson, right? I asked a big, burly guy to help me with this part of […]
President Nelson has asked us to re-energize Relief Society by understanding our purpose. We have a destiny, sisters, and he is calling on us to position ourselves, so we can become a vital part in preparing the world to receive its king, even Jesus Christ. Feeling a Part of Relief Society If you don’t feel […]
You know, I have to admit, I don’t understand people that say gospel-based activities are boring. Gospel-based would be discussions about the scriptures, the church, Jesus Christ, etc. Basically, anything that strengthens our personal testimonies. All the Relief Societies I’ve ever been in feel like they have to entertain the sisters rather than feed them […]
This is a General Conference Odyssey post for the April 1981 Sunday afternoon session. With General Conference coming, we might reflect, once again, upon how we will react to the work we have all been called to do and will be reminded of. What is our errand in the work of the Lord? Back in […]
This is a post on the Priesthood session of April 1981. President Marion G. Romney talks about the covenants we make as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Sometimes, I find myself sitting in a church class discussing doctrine as if it’s something we have to still figure out or work […]
A General Conference Odyssey post on the Saturday morning session of April 1981. The Brethren are conducting “Special Stake Conferences,” where our leaders can cover better the 3500+ stakes in the church. Ours was this weekend and we were given some pretty direct council that correlates well with this week’s General Conference Odyssey report. First […]
General Conference Odyssey from the October 1980 Priesthood session I keep running into talks that emphasize ministering to one another. I don’t know if it’s inspired timing or if this topic is of such great importance, it’s always being talked about. So, here we go again. What is the big deal about Ministering? We’ve already […]
I’m a little slow, but I finally sat down and listened to some of the BYU Women’s Conference talks. They are now available on BYUtv. I enjoyed listening to the new Young Women Presidency. They were fun and told us a little about themselves. After reflecting a minute, and going over my notes, I correlated […]
