NEW TESTAMENT

Acts 18:33


Apollos was introduced and was a great man.

Acts 19

Paul baptizes and confirms 12 men in Ephesus.
A possessed man's spirit spoke to a man and said he knew Jesus, Paul but not him.  That helped with missionary work.  A couple of disciples escape an assembly of mad people.


Acts 20

Eutychus fell asleep while Paul was preaching and fell down from the 3rd loft and died.  Paul brought him back to life.
He told the Elders of the church in Ephesus he wouldn't see them again.  They were sad.

Acts 21:1-17

Paul is ready to die in Jerusalem.


BOOK OF MORMON

Alma 61

Pahoran writes back to Moroni.  Rebelion in Pahoran's city and they're in trouble.  Pahoran has fled to Gideon.  The rebels have gotten possession of Zarahemla and made a new king, Pachus who has made an alliance with the king of the Lamanites.
Pahoran bears his testimony vs 9-21 and it's awesome.
He's a great leader and asks Moroni for help.

ENSIGN


July 2011 'Getting out of Debt-for good'

90% of divorces could be traced back to quarrels and accusations over finances.
Don't get into more debt.
Arrange debt from smallest to largest.  Make minimum payments on all except smallest, on that one pay as much as you can.  Once it's paid off, roll the regular payment you had been paying to the next largest and so on.
Only 3 debts are wise or economically justifiable:
#1 Mortgage on an affordable house.
#2  Loans for college that are accompanied by higher expected earning increases.
#3  Loans for certain well-thought out business plans.


DAUGHTERS IN MY KINGDOM


Chapter 7 'Pure Religion' 


Talking about visiting teaching and how it should be done.
I need to spiritually prepare myself before I visit teach.
1916 visiting teachers were asked to discuss a gospel topic.
1923 they gave monthly messages to be shared.
1944 Sisters stopped collecting $ for the poor and just went to visit.
