New Youth Curriculum

My brothers,

Please review the new youth curriculum which was referenced in General Conference.  I'm interested to know what you feel as you study this approach.  We'll start in January to use this new curriculum.   Please consider the role of the quorum president and 1st assistant. I can tell you, I'm excited for this update.  It seems so natural to ponder the needs of each YM as we study throughout the month in preparation for our instruction.   Our instruction becomes an extension of our personal study and spiritual exploration. 

ERC.

Final prep for Conference

Brothers,

Please consider the experience of the brother of Jared with the Lord.  After he saw the hand of the Lord and before the Lord revealed himself completely; the brother of Jared was asked if he believed the words the Lord was going to speak.  I love this principle.
In preparation for the upcoming General Conference, we might ask ourselves, "Do I believe what the Lord is going to reveal to me?"  Does the Spirit need to teach us before we excessive faith?

What do you think?
