Excellent points and thoughts. I think the elimination of former YM and YW presidencies and the calling of younger bishops has lead to a lack of shepherding among adult members. The ideal of the EQ and RS presidents counseling adults is not reality. Meanwhile the older adults languish without someone they trust. Good points on Come Follow Me and other items. MP quorums are definitely struggling with ministering and in their class time. Somehow the Church needs to be a safe place for all who come regardless of where one is on the faith journey. Our meetings need to allow for others with difficult questions. If f not, people will gather with like minded on forums and avoid the ward family.

Craig, I loved your candid honesty manifest in this article. I LOVED your point about the rameumptom becoming our small devices now in our world. That was brilliantly on point. Thank you for your observations and thoughts on making your powerful point that unity does not require sameness. Well written! Thank you.

I still kind of wish there was more doctrine taught in gospel doctrine. More ideas.
