New Testament

Easter is around the corner. And I finished the Book of Mormon about a week ago. It's time for a new goal, y'all. I am excited to start the New Testament today. What better time to read about the life of Christ than nearing the most important holiday in Christianity? I mean, Christmas is a big deal, but the truth is Christ's birth isn't the most important part of the plan of Salvation, is it? Nope, that honor belongs to the Atonement. I am excited for this next goal. I have 29 days before Easter and a 30 day plan for the New Testament. I am going to have to double down one day, but I'm sure I can handle it. I've read the New Testament before and I actually find it rather easy reading. At least compared to some of the drier parts of the Book of Mormon. Isaiah, anyone?
Speaking of the Book of Mormon, my awesome husband gave his first lesson in Gospel Doctrine today. He did great! And he publicly thanked me for all my help. It was rather sweet. I LOVE helping him prepare. We spent hours together this weekend, pouring over the information, finding clips and quotes, and editing what we'd chosen. I loved it. It's better than a date, honestly. On a date you eat food and watch movies, and still play games on your phone sometimes... Rolling up your sleeves and working together is a horse of a different color. Bouncing ideas off each other and sharing knowledge is sexier than just about anything. I would definitely recommend that if your spouse has a calling that they could use help with, help them! You won't regret it!
Wish me luck with my reading. Or join me. Again, you won't regret it.
