I can run a 5k in <25 minutes
That's covering 3.1 miles in under 25 minutes
Our classes will be okay! 💯🙌
Deep breaths...

@NoblestCalling And by the way, this cohort is now Youth and Young Adult. Imagine switching at just such a moment in time
English
Primary has been doing 25 minute lessons and 5 minute transition times since 2019, just sayin'
English
@_cbish I say study the topic extensively before preparing the lesson and then just follow the spirit - the spirit isn’t likely to out something in your mind if you didn’t learn it before.
English
Dear Teachers,
Here's the secret to a 25 minute class
Don't spend hours preparing the lesson—Spend hours preparing yourself to receive revelation to facilitate the lesson
You will always know what to do at any given moment because you are prepared—not the lesson was prepared
English
Do people not know how to have visitors over to their house to have gospel discussions anymore?
Adam@scrollpastthis
With just 25-minutes each for second-hour classes, leaving little time for in-depth discussion, you know what just became an even more valuable resource? That's right: podcasts 😂
English
@m_war22 @TresClare I am not suggesting winging it
Quite the opposite
English
@_cbish @TresClare I disagree. Do spend hours preparing (which includes narrowing the lesson down to two core principles) then let the Spirit take you in whatever direction it goes.
English
@_cbish I have sat in too many classes, bored stiff, where the teacher did exactly that, and the lack of preparation showed. Much better it is to perpare AND seek divine help.
English
@EchosofEnoch @DanielFullmer6 Be in a constant state of Christlike immersion. Always ask "what good can I bring to every interaction, every situation, every problem?" The miracles are endlessly in front of us
English
@_cbish @DanielFullmer6 Also this came to mind in my way home. Prophets see around corners. They show the way the Lord showed to them. Trust the process. We have time at home as well

Moroni 6 verse 9. It is true

A teacher must prepare, including scripture and source material immersion, living virtuously, pondering, serving others, etc. The structure and approach will be guided by the Holy Ghost. Insights and direction will come days, hours, minutes, and seconds in advance. The key is let the discussion flow naturally. It's not about making sure certain points are made. It's about people making their own connections to Christ
English
@_cbish @bigmommaJMCZA I love this take. Although, my wife would disagree. She has a hard time with impromptu teaching.

Humans integrating and iterating with AI are also evolving at an accelerated pace. It becomes a byproduct of moving ahead rapidly in tandem
Derek Andersen@DerekjAndersen
To fully benefit from AI, I find I have to surround myself with either very young people with no professional scar tissue, or the top one percentile of growth mindset people. Everyone in between is not keeping up and wasting time.
English
@_cbish Yes! Or mixed berry pie rhubarb is my favorite.
English
I'm at a pie contest with my 12 year daughter. Hers is the only good sweet pie.
The vast majority of Utahns create neausiatingly sweet pies.
No depth. No balance.
Sour, bitter, savory, salty, buttery, creamy?
No. Just sugar layered on sugar.

The LDS Church definitely seems at home with change. A new Sunday schedule will start in the fall. 60-25-25.
What do you think? Will it be better?

@EllenRFranck1 I did it the entire time I was a Branch President from 2017–2024. The complaints were non-stop but I heeded them not
English
My ward switched to only gluten free bread for sacrament. Anybody else seeing that in your ward?
English
@LargeInStature_ Just think, you'll only be talking for like 2 to 3 minutes tops
English
I only have to teach for 25 minutes?

In advance of the upcoming general conference leadership session (April 2, 2026), The First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has announced upcoming adjustments to the Sunday class meeting schedule to support members in their efforts to be lifelong disciples of Jesus Christ. The adjustments will strengthen gospel learning in homes and congregations throughout the world. Beginning September 6, 2026, the alternating weekly schedule for Sunday School and quorum or class meetings will be replaced. Under the updated schedule: • Sunday School, Relief Society, elders quorum, Young Women and Aaronic Priesthood quorum meetings will be held each week. • Sacrament meeting will continue to be 60 minutes, followed by brief transition periods. • Sunday School and quorum and class meetings will each be 25 minutes. • Primary will continue every Sunday and will be 55 minutes, held while adults and youth attend their respective classes. • Where local circumstances necessitate, units may begin with Primary and quorum and class meetings and conclude with sacrament meeting.

@natemaklocklin The Age of Agency
Everything is available, including access to more people virtually and AI augmented study. The study session possibilities are endless. We can study, read, and listen all day, all at our fingertips. It's a beautiful time to be alive
English
Personally, I think this change is a bad one. Latter-day Saints are already lacking in understanding their religion and cutting lesson times in half will not help with that problem. We’ll see though!

If you're a teacher and have been following 'Teaching in the Savior's Way' then you're already primed for 25 minutes. If not, it'll be a big adjustment for you
English
@gboatman12 Members need to up their game. Be ready and stay focused. Teachers who know how to lead and facilitate will work wonders and all will leave charged up
English
I like this, but 25 minutes for classes and quorum meetings is short. Sometimes it takes our quorum 15 minutes to get rolling. I'd be fine going back to a 3 hour block.
