gospel learning and teaching

"Successful gospel teachers love the gospel. They are excited about it. And because they love their students, they want them to feel as they feel and to experience what they have experienced. To teach the gospel is to share your love of the gospel."

"We cannot love what we do not know."

the way we are able to share our deep love of the gospel and of Christ comes from really knowing it.
we must DO these things, really KNOW them:
-scripture study
-prayer
-commandment keeping
-using positive agency

"You must not be afraid to exercise your agency and act upon the thoughts and impressions that the Spirit of the Lord puts into your heart. You may feel awkward at first, but I promise you that the sweetest and most gratifying experiences."

i was so happy to read this today. sometimes i feel a bit peculiar, but hey, turns outs that's normal when you're trying hard. so get out there, get crazy and maybe you'll touch someones life.
