RS/MP Lesson 22: 'Bringing Up Children in Light and Truth'
Parents have the primary responsibility to teach their children the gospel. “Do not leave the training of your children to the public schools. Do not leave their training to the Primary, to the Sunday School, to the [Church’s youth organizations].” What are each of these institutions...

RS/MP Lesson 19: “Temporal and Spiritual Blessings from the Word of Wisdom” (George Albert Smith Manual)
I see a lot of practical wisdom in the Word of Wisdom’s prohibition on alcohol and tobacco. Frankly, I don’t see the wisdom of the prohibition on tea. In Russia, where I served my mission, the prohibition on tea was a big deal, since tea is so culturally pervasive. So, I’d like to reflect on...

Relief Society Lesson 22: Bringing Up Children in Light and Truth
Clearly the subject of children is very tricky. On the one hand, it is delightful when the subject of children comes up as there are a plethora of General Conference addresses given by women on the topic, making the lesson friendly to a general female voice. On the other hand…. in every ward or...

Relief Society Lesson 21: The Power of Kindness
“[M]iracle[s] can happen and will happen when there is kindness, respect, and love. Why do any of us have to be so mean and unkind to others? Why can’t all of us reach out in friendship to everyone about us? Why is there so much bitterness and animosity? It is not a part of the gospel of Jesus...
RS/MP Lesson 17: “ The Strengthening Power of Faith” (George Albert Smith Manual)
This lesson is filled with miraculous stories of faith. I sat through this lesson last week in church and I heard people telling great faith promoting stories. Faith stories always seem to start out with an inescapable problem and they always seem to end up with an impossible solution. Let me...
RS/MP Lesson 18: “ Stay on the Lord’s Side of the Line” (George Albert Smith Manual)
This lesson is about a choice. Yes, a choice. Actually, the choice. I do not believe that our choices in life are plural. We can sit around and talk about how much we sin or how many hours of church service that we put in every week, but in the end does that really matter? I don’t think so....
