Priesthood lesson was the Thomas Monson lesson about him starting a forest fire when he was 7. The first law of the Gospel is 'Strict Obedience', and the second law is 'pay your tithing'.
Is it too much to ask that we talk strictly about Jesus during church on the weeks of Christmas and Easter? Does this bother anybody else? Can we still claim that we are 'Christian', when we can't even recognize that every other Christian church in the world actually spoke exclusively about Jesus today? How can we sit, with straight faces, and claim to have a greater degree of light and knowledge with respect to 'true Christianity', when we never seem to directly discuss the teachings of Jesus?
I don't know why I expected anything different.
