    I had to teach high priests group today. I usually build short powerpoint slides that have the scriptures i want to read and a couple of slides stressing the the points of the lesson i want to make. Saves me writing on the board. White background and black lettering. Because of this post, i did not do that today .

    Hey, people think they're experts on everything. Teach in your own way. Screw those that don't like it.....if they can do better, I'm sure they'll jump right in and offer to substitute on a permanent basis for you.

    Yeah, Arizona. Teach the way that is most comfortable for you. I use PPT all the time at work and so I just don't use it at church because I want a break. That's just me.

    This is not a knock on Rocker. Just thought about it and decided to use the board. The week before had to sit through one with blue backgrounds, yellow writing and a transition with noises for each picture that came onto the screen . Then thought about bringing my tablet and a cable and i pulled the ripcord.

    I think i would like to make a power point of potential red zone plays and give the print out to Kyle Whiittingham however. : )

    If you're going to do the PowerPoint I say go big and use ever transition you can and every sound effect you can.
