Students Teach the ‘Teacher’

My seminary students had some great insights into what resonated with them in General Conference over the weekend. It’s great to hear their perspective of these teachings and shows how serious they are about learning and understanding truth.

Here is a highlight of what they said:

Sarah – when we are serving others it’s serving God and we do it because of our good desires.

Brittney – liked how the Rabbis after visiting Welfare Square said they believe our church does good works for the right reasons.

Logan – Elder Holland’s testimony of the Book of Mormon was so powerful.

Gavin – anger leads to destructiveness and bad feeling, we should be cheerful and not angry.

Andrew – the story Elder Choi told of the young men that were trouble makers (and bad singers) but they turned their lives around and became faithful (and good singers).

Anne – parallel of the workers that didn’t use their safety equipment to how we can apply that in our lives.

Julia – appreciated Elder Holland’s powerful testimony because he had such conviction and expressed it so strongly.
