A Passover Question For You by Autumn Dickson For my last post this week, we talked about some specifics of Passover in order to better reflect on our free status because of Christ. I really love the Passover. My sister does a Passover meal for Easter each year, and there are so many beautiful traditions associated with it that can teach us about Christ if we choose to explore the symbolism. So I want to talk about a different aspect of Passover. In Exodus, the Lord teaches His people to keep the Festival of Unleavened Bread (Passover) in Canaan. Exodus 13:8 ¶ And thou shalt shew thy son in that day, saying, This is done because of that which the Lord did unto me when I came forth out of Egypt. The Israelites were commanded to teach their children about their deliverance. Some of the traditions that formed as a part of this commandment are wonderful. As the Jews do their Passover meal, they begin with strange ways that are different than any other day. This is meant to provoke curiosity in children. As they move through a couple of these strange steps, there is a ritual called Ma Nishtana. For this ritual, the youngest child would say: “Why is this night different from all other nights?” On all other nights we eat leavened and unleavened; tonight only unleavened. On all other nights we eat all vegetables; tonight bitter herbs. On all other nights we don't dip even once; tonight twice. On all other nights we eat sitting or reclining; tonight we all recline. This would begin the story telling of how the Israelites were freed from Egypt. Like with the Israelites on Passover, we, as Latter-day Saints, do things in a peculiar way. We live differently because of what we believe. And when our children (or anyone, for that matter) ask why, how do we answer them? Because the answer should always connect back to Christ and His deliverance. Whenever we can connect it back to Christ, we should. Why do we keep the Word of Wisdom? Because it keeps our bodies healthy and strong and better able to hear Christ. Why do we go to the temple? To try and feel Christ more closely and to receive power from Him. Why do we go to church every single week? Why do we keep the Sabbath Day Holy? Why are we so careful about our entertainment? Why do we keep the Law of Chastity? Why do we do Family Home Evening and Come Follow Me? Why are we making our lives harder and different? These are peculiar traditions that were meant to put our lives in order so that we can better feel Christ and serve Him. It is always about Christ because in Christ, we find joy and peace. When we try to do the gospel without Christ, it's merely an extra burden. When we utilize the gospel to draw closer to Christ, that's when it's life-changing. Whenever I start to feel like the gospel or church is a burden, I have learned that the problem is forgetting Christ. Let's talk about it with a direct example. I try to go to the temple once a month. I used to be so intense about it because I'm often intense about everything. I never missed a month, which is awesome except for the fact that it didn't bring me closer to Christ. It just gave me a little rush of dopamine to cross it off my list and a weird sense of pride and martyrdom. Because I'm often intense about things like this, it can get really easy for me to overwhelm myself and reach the point where I want to give up entirely. Everything changes when I switch my perspective to see tools and layers of bringing Christ into my life. This makes two great changes in my life. The first is that I can utilize wisdom to know what to prioritize and to let go when things don't come together. For example, I travelled a ton last month, and it was really difficult to go to the temple. We were gone for a little over half the month, and I have limited windows in which I can run over and participate in the temple. I had lined everything up one afternoon to go while my babies slept and my other kids were in school and Conner was downstairs working. I planned it all without the knowledge that Conner wasn't actually going to be home to be with the babies while they napped. What normally would have been an absolutely unreasonable irritation gave way to peace. I couldn't go to the temple to find Christ, but that didn't mean I needed to banish Him from my heart in anger. The temple is a tool and if something prevents me from picking up that tool, I have a myriad of tools at my disposal to draw myself closer to Him. The second way that it has changed my life is probably even more important. The things that used to overwhelm me are now the things that relax me. The temple used to be a rushed thing that took up some of my time. Now I see it for the worthwhile activity that it is. I calm my heart and utilize it rather than completing it. I can go to church with 5-8 kids (depending on whether my kids bring their friends) and I can simply be grateful for the opportunity to be there and show my devotion to Christ. I can be grateful for the opportunity for my children to also practice drawing closer to Christ even if it's a rather imperfect effort. When I keep the Word of Wisdom, it's because I want to nourish my body so that it stands ready to hear and serve Christ. When I keep the Law of Chastity, I am removing unnecessary drama and heartache that are distracting from Christ. The gospel and commandments and church all become exactly what they were meant to become when we tie it back to Christ. In Christ, we find our ultimate joy and peace and hope. He lightens everything He touches. His yoke and burden are light because the yoke and “burden” are the very things that tie us to Him. I am grateful for Christ in my life. He truly has changed my life. I look at my life and find all sorts of reasons to rejoice and hope for better days. I have also learned how to be grateful for the yoke and burden He gives me because I see it for what it is. Autumn Dickson was born and raised in a small town in Texas.

BYU-Idaho is hosting service opportunities for Family Home Evening activities every Monday Student Reporter Cody Miller interviewed Gabriel Logan about these events.

Is FHE still a thing? Years ago, Monday nights were set apart as a sacred or special night to spend in families, learning and spending quality time together. Is this still happening? Mark and Janie discuss the importance of taking that time to be together and to teach our children, making Home Evening a part of our family cultures.

Connor reviews how often Family Home Evening was encouraged by church leaders and how this practice has declined in recent years.

This conversation is based in part on the book Understanding Your Mormon Neighbor, by Ross Anderson. Mormonism makes a big deal about families. You can't understand life as a member of the LDS Church without factoring in the strong emphasis on family. This family focus is laudable. It's a great way to establish common ground with your LDS neighbors. But how Mormons approach family starts with a big difference from traditional Christians…The Family Is the Way to Salvation Many LDS values re: family are similar to traditional Xian valuesBut at heart of LDS view of families is a different world viewFamilies are the center of their Plan of SalvationUniverse is organized along family linesHeaven an extension of home life on this earthThus “Families are Forever”Family is the basic unit of exaltationEssence of exaltation = reproduce family life eternallyThis explains the emphasis on genealogyConnect families backward / forward in timeFamily StructureFather is the leader of home → as the one holding the authorized priesthoodBaptize children / ordain sons to priesthood officesGive a blessing when sick or at crossroads of lifeOne structured activity = Family Home Evening: weekly family timeReligious lessons / fun activitiesMany LDS families also have a weekly “business meeting” - prayer & planningIf you live in Utah → explains why historically sports teams don't practice on Monday pm, etc.Other common practices reflecting value of family…Reunions are bigEmphasis on family history: records / journalsFamilies do genealogy together / share resultsLDS Families Are BusyServiceWorthy members give huge amt of time & energy in serviceEach involved in a calling in the local wardRegional church service projects → like welfare farmDoing genealogyTemple work for ancestorsBaking casseroles for neighborsHelping needy in their community, and moreChildren are involved wherever possibleHowever, Mormon parents are kept so busy with service callings / meetingsOften LDS feel like emphasis on family is contradicted by lack of time to spend with familySabbath keepingActive LDS honor Sabbath by not working unless necessarySundays reserved for church attendance & family timeEating out, shopping, movies, similar → discouragedBc they require others to work on SundayStandards are loosening in younger generationsStill → in Utah, when 4th of July falls on a SundayMany towns reschedule patriotic celebs for Sat pmExplains why your LDS neighbors might not accept an invitation to dinner on Sunday, etc.Don't mow your lawn on SundayValues = Mormon worldview defined by principle of progression toward exaltationProduces a drive for achievement & advancementCoupled with “can-do” attitude and strong work ethicAgain, the family is the key environment for cultivating these personal valuesPersonal righteousnessMormons speak of this as “worthiness”The most compelling motive driving daily life in cultureWorthiness is generated by obedienceChildren are to obey parentsAt baptism, new members make covenants to obey God's commandmentsWard members expected to obey leaders → “magnify their callings”All of this is modeled in...

Follow our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/groups/goyeforthpodcast/ Hello everyone! On today's show, I speak with Paul Larsen who served in The Texas, Houston East mission (T.H.E. Mission) from 2003 to 2005 and I think that you'll love hearing about his experiences. And in my missionary minute, I talk about taking opportunities to teach. So let's get to it! ... A big thanks to my good friend Paul Larsen. Paul is such an amazing guy and if you are wondering if he is related to Chelsea Larsen from Episode 6, well, yes, he is her husband. As I mentioned in her episode, they are just a fantastic family and we are sad to see them move out of the ward, and as I said we know they have big things ahead of them in Idaho Falls. In today's missionary minute, I really liked what Paul's mission president said about taking the opportunity to teach wherever they were, even at doorsteps. I am an odd guy about some things and I kind of think that in my head things need to be done in order and by the book. So as my kids were growing up I would have ideas of things I wanted to discuss with them and think, “Well, I've got to talk to them about this in the next Family Home Evening.” And then someone taught me this principle about teaching wherever you are and that might not line up ideally with your FHE lesson. So maybe teach your kids while you're doing work in the yard, or teach them as you're driving them to school, etc. This changed how I viewed teaching moments and taught me that just like a missionary who is called to preach the gospel 24/7, as a parent, I am called to teach my kids 24/7, not just during preach my gospel or family home evening. Well, that's about it for today's show. If you or someone you know has served a mission and you think that they would be a fun guest for the show, please contact me @ goyeforthpodcast@gmail.com If you liked the show, please subscribe so that you are notified when new episodes come out. We would also appreciate it if you could rate and review the podcast in Apple podcasts, or share it with a friend. Until next time, wax strong in the gospel my friends! This is not an official production of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The opinions expressed are by the host and guest.

This week we talk about The Fall, Cain and Able, and how it all ties into obedience. It's a great reminder for us to be grateful, make good choices, and be obedient.

Chandler Roberson was raised as a devout Mormon, and always wanted to be the best Mormon she could be.  In her teenage years Chandler had a few abusive relationships with Mormon boys, where she felt forced to “repent” for “sins” she never committed. Her senior year Chandler felt pressured to break up with a non-LDS boy whom she genuinely loved, and to attend BYU-Idaho to follow the ideal Mormon path. While at BYU-Idaho Chandler was sexually assaulted by her Family Home Evening “brother,” which led to her leaving BYU-Idaho early, ultimately attempting to serve an LDS mission with untreated PTSD (returning home early). Chandler eventually became a nationally-known fashion blogger at “Days of Chandler.”  Later, Chandler attempted two young LDS temple marriages, both of which ended in divorce.  In her view, she was too young to attempt marriage, but felt intense pressure from LDS Church members to marry young. This is Chandler's story.  Major themes include: - Pressure to be a “good Mormon girl” (all on women's shoulders) - BYU-Idaho (dating/sexism, sexual assault problem at BYU schools) - Fashion Blogging (similar pressure to be a certain way – inauthentic/beautiful) - Personal impacts of being raised in the church ( codependency, sexual shame, etc) - Pressure to get married (twice). We are super grateful to have Samantha Shelley (Zelph on the Shelf) as co-host for this interview. ————— We are 100% donor funded! Please click HERE to donate and keep this content coming!

It's not enough just to teach our children the gospel, we also need to teach them how to teach others the gospel. As a novice mother I made the mistake of thinking that just because my children had grown up going to church every week, having family scripture study every day and Family Home Evening every week, they would automatically know how to give a coherent ,well thought out lesson. Oh how wrong I was. Knowing how to be an effective teacher takes practice. Allowing our kids to practice at home where the stakes are low is so important for preparing them to teach outside of the home. Whether its a talk in sacrament meeting or a young men's/young women's lesson, you can help your youth give the perfect lesson by teaching them to follow these four simple steps when preparing their lesson.
