    I'll need to consult the HOI before I can answer that.


    Edit: I'm disappointed this thread has lost its positive mojo.

She recommended that church members who struggle with this should look into joining Toastmasters.

      She's pretty much in the ward testimony meeting HOF.
      Why the heck was your ward having F&T meeting on the 15th of May?

        Yeah, I was surprised when I saw there were fifteen responses. I should have known somebody (*cough* nikuman) had hijacked the thread in favor of negative commentary.

          Yesterdays church service was great for me as well. Good meeting before hand, great talks in sacrament, and my kids behaved themselves for the most part.
          "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. 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

            be nice to the man, he probably should have put it in the "what I learned at church thread" but that's ok if he didn't.

              We had an RM speak along with someone from the Dry Council.

              The returned missionary served in Thailand. He gave a powerful witness and talk about how to he become fully engaged in the work, lost himself in serving others yet it was the happiest time of his life.. The transformation from joc to RM was absolutely stunning in his case.

              The best part of his talk is he left only 3-4 minutes for the High Councilman to speak. Win-Win!

                nikuman can post all he wants here. Everyone had a day at church yesterday and I'm sure in our Church of/with Pharisees, not everyone had a great time.

                    If I paid attention in church, I'd probably know the answer to this.

                      I also had a great day at church. (First off, I keep reading the thread title as Green Day at Church). I got recruited for a six voice choral number, and rocked the tenor part w only two practices... also, lots of new cuties I'm meeting. I wasn't previously aware I was a Pharisee, howver, and am quite shaken up today.

                        I didn't comlpainign initially, and any comlpainignts were in reference to past days at church, not this one in particular, which was actually very nice for reasons I have already noted.

                        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."
