I hope you all have a wonderful holiday week!
This last week, Brigham and I team taught with the theme "How can I learn to make my own decisions?" We studied the scripture block, Doctrine and Covenants 58:26-29 and discussed how we can be led by the Lord at the same time as not being "compelled in all things."
Then we brainstormed what decisions class members might be making in the next decade of their lives. Brigham led an activity using Elder Robert D. Hale's talk,"Preparing for the decade of decision," and his advice was so great! I hope you all thought about this and are choosing now those things that will affect you positively in the decades ahead.
Here's a video message from Elder Holland that relates:
Coming up this Sunday, we will continue with the self-reliance theme as we discuss how setting goals can help us become self-reliant. Brian is going to be team-teaching with me!
Think of a time you set a goal; what process do you go through to achieve it?
Check out these scripture blocks:
Philippians 3:13–14
2 Nephi 32:9
Whether or not you're planning to serve a mission, page 146 of Preach my Gospel has a great resource about goal setting. If you have time, study it and see how you can apply these principles in your life now. :)
See you Sunday!
Oh, and there's a potluck after church :) That will be fun!
