February Firesides – Navigating Gospel Doctrine
Thursday, February 20th
Sunday, February 23rd
7-9 Mountain Time
Hosts: Dan, Terri and Mark
Participants: YOU!
In this month’s virtual firesides, let’s explore how to approach the Doctrine and Covenants in this year’s Come Follow Me curriculum. Acknowledging both the inspiring and troubling aspects of these revelations and church history, let’s discuss how to navigate our faith journey while engaging in the complex and difficult texts.
Sometimes verses in the D&C can be triggering. What does it mean when we speak of “the only true and living Church upon the face of the whole earth?” When we read “by mine own voice or the voice of my servants, it is the same,” do we really think it means that they are the same words? How do we handle the scriptures on polygamy? On the other hand, we can find verses that uplift and sanctify us, like from sections 88 or 93, where our view of god and humans is expanded to a shared eternal life.
Although our recent podcast covered this topic, we don’t have all the answers, nor indeed all the questions you may have about how to navigate this year. We’re looking forward to an engaging discussion.
