  • I learned in church today

    The Second Coming will happen while the current batch of YM/YW are alive.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

    • I learned all about the Billy Jones Wildcat Railroad, it got Jr (10) and Captain (8) to listen for about 10 minutes. I have no idea where Los Gatos is, but I could see us going there soon.

      • That we still believe:

        “As man now is, God once was:
        “As God now is, man may be.”

        Cool.
        Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

        For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

        Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

        • Living in the south, this means that I will learn nothing at church today, even though it will likely all be gone by the time church starts. I hope someone told Parrot Head.

            No cancellation here, even with an inch on the roads, and ice underneath from the 1/4" of rain we got before it.

            It's ward conference, and the bishop's a bit of a show off.

            NOTE FROM THE BISHOP: WE ARE HAVING WARD CONFERENCE AS SCHEDULED. WE ASK THAT YOU USE EXTREME CAUTION IN DRIVING ON THE ROADS. IF YOU FEEL YOUR DRIVEWAY OR ROADS ARE TOO DANGEROUS TO TRY TO DRIVE, PLEASE USE YOUR INDIVIDUAL JUDGEMENT ON WHETHER TO LEAVE YOUR HOME.
            HOME TEACHERS: PLEASE CHECK ON ANY ELDERLY ON YOUR ROUTES.

            My bronchitis has me coughing every 23-50 seconds, and I'm out of the good prescription cough medicine, so I'm staying home anyway.

              That was nice of your bishop to give people permission to use individual judgment like that.

                    Men should speak for women. Now he's going off on pornography.

                    This talk is a doozy.

                      • I learned that our HC speaker was a bishop. After the 4th or 5th time mentioning this, I assumed he was not making it up.
                        I intend to live forever.
                        So far, so good.

                        • I have been giving a new "calling," along with the rest of the EQ, to clean the church next week at 8:00 because the sisters cant help as they scheduled a conference at 9:00. I asked if we'd be set apart, and the counselor wasn't amused.
                          Not that, sickos.

                              • From a 80 year old retired Physician, who was not aware that he was suppposed to give a talk today, so he "free styled" without a topic.

                                1. People need to get back to corporal punishement with their kids. Kids today get way with too much crap. We used a wooden spoon on our kids.
                                2. Mormon Standard Time is an insult to those people on time. There's no reason you can't be to church on time.
                                3. Water bottles in church is not reverent. Can't you go an hour without a drink? Same with the bathroom. Hold it till the meeting is over. And when you do go, be sure to flush. "There's nothing worse than going into a bathroom and seeing other peoples business left behind."

                                It was this was for 15 minutes.
