RE: The Curation and Engagement Leagues ๐ - STEEM prizes & steem-bounty available! ๐
ok well if it gets slow for you I got alot of questions I can ask you! plus I'll stay up as late as you need!
yeah I think I would be highly offended if I'm not able to call you King Glen so I think I should be able to! lol
Since I said this it's been picking up. I'm quitting around ten if not sooner. Need to study my Sunday School lesson. What do you know about Jeroboam and Rehoboam? :)
haha! well it's been too long since I've read their stories so I'm not going to embarrass myself but I've read about them at times especially Jeroboam. do you have an assigned teaching subject or do you get to choose what to teach?
Oh, there's a lesson manual, and plenty of supplemental material to look at. More than ever be covered in class. And of course, everyone's supposed to be reading on their own, but I don't know how many do. So, I try to cover what I can in the lesson, throw in some tidbits I've gleaned from other sources, and hope that we all learned something when it's all over with.
ha! hey you should find out how many do by having a test!
that would get people reading a little bit next week!
I joked about having a quiz at the end of class after the lesson once. I don't think anyone thought it was funny.
I keep thinking I should remind people Friday or so about the reading, but I keep forgetting to post it to our Facebook group page.
hey sir Glen are you the only one teaching a class or how does that work are you appointed or did you volunteer?
We call it callings, but essentially the bishop and his counselors pray for guidance and extend the calls to those they feel should do them. I'm one of various Sunday School teachers, but I'm the only one teaching the main adult class now. They've had two at a time before.
I suppose it could be considered volunteering, though. We can certainly say yes or no to a calling, though most do. But no one in our congregation gets paid for what they do, including the bishop and the rest of the leadership. They put in quite a few hours a week, not including Sundays, and more if there are activities of some kind.
how do the ones doing this work fulltime make money then if they don't get paid?
yes we call that callings also.
