TFW the TV announcer says it’s been 21 years since the Illinois Fighting Illini has been to the final four and you realize that was in 2005.

What's your road trip snack? Currently snacking beef jerky with a side of hot tamales and it's hitting the spot.

@ATrueMillennial was it different though? Read it again. Home teaching when introduced sounded a lot like ministering when that was introduced.

@fwaygotay Yep. Different programs for different times. Maybe 30 years from now "ministering" will be replaced by something else.

The Church is gradually letting go of some of its more "formal" practices in favor of a more accessible, simple, contemporary culture. For example: * Dropping off-putting terms like laurel, beehive, Mia Maid, Mutual, Church discipline, etc * Ditching home teaching in favor of ministering * 2 hour meetings * Approving guitars in sacrament meeting * New contemporary hymns in the hymn book * Approved non-KJV translations of the Bible * Shorter, more basic conference talks and curriculum written for a lower reading level * Modified FSY pamphlet without many rules * Single handbook with many rules cut out * Allowing the continued broadcast of meetings for anyone who wishes to watch online instead of attending in person * Relaxed dress code for missionaries and priests blessing the Sacrament * etc But through all the other revisions, prophets and apostles still feel there is value in speaking to God differently than you speak to your buddy. So the official guidance on the handbook is still to use the traditional language of prayer, including the archaic pronouns for Deity. I know you might think it feels overly formal or stodgy-- especially if you are a recent convert. This is not a core doctrine. And if I were a betting man, I'd wager that the line in the handbook is not going to be there much longer. But getting ahead of the Brethren introduces discord, disunity, and confusion. So please, while that is the current prophetic guidance, I encourage everyone who disagrees with it to please be humble and follow it. We are never spiritually missing out when we follow prophetic counsel.

Dropping KJV pronouns doesn’t make a prayer casual

““In September 1963 home teaching was introduced to the Church. This differs from ward teaching in that greater emphasis is placed on watching over the family, rather than just making a monthly visit. Instructions have been given that the duty of the home teacher is to keep in touch with the families, to watch over them, to contact them in whatever manner necessary, in order to watch over them. We are told that home teaching is not just the one visit a month, but that home teaching is never done. We are to have concern for these families every day as long as they are assigned to us. The one visit a month to a family is important, but it is only one means of contact as we watch over our families.”

@ATrueMillennial what if I told you when home teaching was introduced in the 60s that it had the same motivation as the ministering changes?

NBA ratings are at multi-decade lows for the NBA Finals. The NBA’s all time most watched game was in 1998. This year the NCAA tourney is setting all time record viewership. The Super Bowl all time high was two years ago. Why has NBA tanked while other leagues soared? Vote below.
