The seminary class has decided on a theme. It’s based on 1 Nephi 2:15 and it is:
Dwell in a tent
We discussed what that actually means. When we see the phrase ‘dwell in a tent’ what concepts should we associate with it?
This is what they said:
- We need to follow God. Whatever he asks us to do, that we should do.
- We should leave worldly things behind us.
- We need to surround ourselves with good people, good friends, and our family.
So here it is:
Dwell in a tent. Follow God. Leave worldly things behind. Keep good friends.
The theme of “Strength of God” (Alma 56:56) was highly favored by the class and they are considering that for the theme for the 2nd semester.

I love this. I think our family will also adopt this mantra/theme.
Great theme! It reminds me of a sharing time we did within the past year where we literally pitched our tents with the doors facing the temple -- as in the King Benjamin story. The kids loved it -- dare I say the teens might enjoy pitching tents?? :)
