This week is part 2 where Taylor offers an approach he calls, “Talking is not Teaching.” It is a complete re-framing of the approach to teaching the gospel that mirrors much of what is being rolled out in Sunday schools and in Priesthood and Relief society with the Come, Follow Me style of gospel learning.

The music for this week is also our second week of featuring music by April Meservy. She recently won an award for her music video at the LDS Film Festival in Orem, Utah. She has such an amazing voice and is such a talent. So, please visit April Meservy’s website. In last week’s episode, Taylor talked about having an online database of metaphors and analogies that people can draw from, as well as a space where we can have a discussion about the pro’s and con’s of each the metaphors. I thought it was such a good idea that I went out and created an online discussion group just for that. So, if you go now to ldsmissioncast.com/metaphors you will see that we have a discussion forum set up to do that very thing. The discussions are arranged by gospel principle, so faith, baptism, apostasy, priesthood authority, basic gospel principles that are taught most often. Each gospel principle can have a “topic” which is where we would have the metaphor that can be discussed. I have started a couple, like the Ice Cream Man handing out a speeding ticket example for why proper priesthood authority matters when it comes to baptism and other gospel ordinances. Many missionaries have used that example, and sometimes it works with the right audience. Other times it might not. Having these sorts of discussions can be a great resource to those that participate in the discussion, but also for those that are looking for help in their own efforts to teach and share the gospel with others. So, that address again is  ldsmissioncast.com/metaphors It’s free to participate, you just need to open an account, pick a principle or topic, and either add a metaphor of your own, or one you have heard, and then tell your friends to join up. There is nothing quite like it on line, but it won’t be much help without people participating in the discussion. So, please check it out and join up.

To Swallow the Earth - An Adventure 108 years in the making! (Suspense) A man and a woman, each searching for missing family members, clash amid a Nevada silver rush scheme that leaves both unsure who to trust—and scrambling to stay alive. What if you came home after a journey and your family was gone? What if someone else was living in your house, running things—and trying to kill you? Could a beautiful woman be behind it? Wade Forester must stay in the shadows because, it seems, everyone has reason to shoot him. His father has disappeared, and his sister won’t speak to anyone. Beautiful Patricia Laughlin is searching for her family as well. Few people gain her confidence, though powerful landowner Bridger Calhoun just might be the man to do it. After a clash throws them to opposite sides, Wade must decide if risking his life to help Patricia is worth the trouble, and Patricia must learn which killer to trust with her life. “To Swallow the Earth earns the Literary Classics Seal of Approval. MIDVALE, Utah, Feb. 21, 2016 – Award-winning author Karl Beckstrand is from San Jose, California — and is only in his forties. His grandfather grew up ranching, hunting and fishing around the Sierra Nevada Mountains a hundred years ago and used that setting for a western thriller set in the Nevada silver rush. It’s now a young adult suspense novel: “To Swallow the Earth” – and a finalist for the Laramie Award. “My grandfather grew up exploring the Sierra Nevadas on horseback, so he knew the country well,” Beckstrand said. “My challenge was to develop his characters while preserving the plot’s action, suspense and earthy vernacular.” One reviewer said he’d buy the film rights if he had production money. He liked the true-to-life people in unpredictable circumstances. Amazon Author pageKarl Beckstrand is the award-winning author of fifteen juvenile books and more than 40 ebook titles (reviews by Kirkus, The Horn Book blog, School Library Journal, ForeWord Reviews). Raised in San Jose, California, he received a B.A. in journalism from BYU, an M.A. in international relations from APU, and a certificate from Film A. Academy. Two publishers produced his early multicultural children's books; since 2004 he has run Premio Publishing & Gozo Books. An engaging speaker, consultant, and workshop facilitator, Beckstrand has experience in high tech, public policy, film, radio, and TV broadcasting--including scripts, speeches, and Web content. He teaches media at a state college and contrasts traditional publishing with digital book publishing. His YA fiction, ebook mysteries, nonfiction/biographies, Spanish & bilingual books for kids (with pronunciation guide), short stories, wordless books, and picture book app feature diverse characters of color and usually end with a twist. He has lived abroad, been a Spanish/English interpreter, and enjoys volleyball and kayaking (usually not at the same time). Beckstrand has presented for SUECON (education conference), Taiwan's Global Leadership for Youth, California's Capital Book Festival, Utah Educational Library Media Association, Salt Lake City Book Festival, PCI Webinars, Utah Humanities Council, Murray City Writer's Workshop, Utah Housing Coalition, Midvale City Reading Program, Utah Office of Education, professional groups, and schools.
