🎙 CARE Episode 18 – D&C 49–50, Part 2

As the school year comes to a close, Mark Mason and Will Perez help you finish strong and prepare for the summer. This episode guides seminary teachers through challenging doctrines in Doctrine and Covenants 49 and 50—how to teach about marriage and family in diverse classroom settings, how to help students recognize truth and avoid deception, and how to empower them to teach by the Spirit.

You’ll also find encouragement and tools for final learning assessments and a call to use the summer to reach out and enroll every potential student.
