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!
seemingly willy nilly scriptures but powerful! I was expecting more randomness for some reason but those scriptures went right to the core.
ReplyDeletefirst) Satan exists and he is trying to deceive us into thinking that we are powerless and weak.
second) We have the power of God with us if we keep his commandments.
third) We have our families to teach us and strengthen us. We have families to teach us how to love and hope for the best for all.
fourth)Evil will be great and we need to be prepared. We must live honestly and surround ourselves by the truth- that we are all children of God and that we may all inherit his kingdom equally. That Salvation is for all but you cannot lie, cheat, and steal our way into the Kingdom of Heaven.
So much meat!
