Class is in Session

Today I wanted to think of a person that maybe more obscure but just as influential in my life.  This summer I was very inspired by a lot of people.  However, out of all the spiritual mentors I encountered, Sister Amy Reading sticks out the most in my mind.  This lady was a Session Director for the last EFY session in South Jordan.  I remember her because she taught how to have a passion for the scriptures.  I loved the scriptures before, but she showed me all the "brown sugar" just waiting to be tasted.  She helped me realize that all a lesson needs is some meat from the scriptures, and the rest of it will fall into place.  I loved how she found the scriptures funny and that she knew exactly what our kids needed to hear.  I made it a goal at that session to try and gain that passion for myself.  It is still coming along, but I do find passages in the scriptures funny and very applicable everyone. 

Feel Passionate About the Scriptures!!
This talk by Elder Nelson is fantastic!

I Stole This From Her Profile Hopefully That's Not Illegal....
