What is this blog?
In 2008 I stumbled upon a blog organized by a woman who wanted to read The Bible each day through the year and then comment and receive comments about the reading assignment. I decided to join and I really enjoyed the experience of discussing the passages. I wanted to continue that. I thought I would start a blog that follows the LDS Sunday School lessons, not in any way replacing them, but just to offer a venue to comment on the readings for those who don't like to/get to comment in class or don't get to go to class at all, or just anybody. 2009 was my first full year with this blog, reading the Doctrine and Covenants (all archived in 2009). 2010 I did my best to discuss the Old Testament but fell off in the fall. 2011 is a review of The New Testament, but I was even less successful in continuing with that year, but I hope to fill those in during the year! During 2012 we discuss The Book of Mormon. I will post at least once for the week's readings. I will not post on General Conference weeks and will probably be behind your current reading due to our church schedule, but hope you can still find relevancy. Also, I probably won't proofread much, so please forgive me for errors, I'll be lucky to just get a post each week in. Feel free to comment on my current week or your class' current week. Enjoy! I do!
Such timing! My cousin(he died last summer) was baptized this last Thursday in the Detroit Temple. Soon after I heard the news about his unexpected death(work accident), I felt peace and I knew that he would be taught the gospel by my faithful ancestors(in particular our Great Grandparents). I also felt peace that his kind heart would accept the gospel. I am so thankful that the Gospel is eternal and reaches beyond the grave. I am thankful for the many many opportunities that we all have to learn of and accept our Savior's love.
ReplyDeleteAlso as I read over and over- turn the hearts of the children to the fathers and the fathers to their children I was reminded of how "cool" it is becoming to be a Dad now. It's wonderful!
