I have Church meetings usually starting about 7 am on Sunday mornings going until late afternoon, depending which Sunday of the month it is. Consequently, I usually don’t have the opportunity or the inclination to be involved in the digital world until after all my meetings and commitments are done.<\/p>\n

There is an exception, however. I fairly often have the opportunity to substitute for a teacher in a Sunday School class in the Ward that I’m assigned to as a High Councilor. I really enjoy spending some time with these teenagers and getting to know them a little bit better. So, usually sometime during the week I read the upcoming Sunday School lesson and think through how I would present it. Then, if the opportunity arises, I can use my iPhone to call up the lesson manual for use in the classroom.<\/p>\n

Today I had the opportunity to substitute for the 14-15 year old class. Normally there are 5 students in the class but today there were only 3. They were fun, attentive, and engaged with the material. I think they may have even gone away knowing a couple of things they didn’t know before and feeling good about that. The lesson material was about Joshua becoming the Israelite leader, the charge to be of good courage, and how he and the people of Israel responded. I think I also picked up some new insight as well.<\/p>\n
