Whoa. Week 20 already? This week we will look at two talks because they go nicely together and because we need to pick up speed a little to cover everything before the next conference sneaks up on us again. These two talks are a nice fit because they address how learning and teaching both play a role in conversion.
| Learning with Our Hearts By Elder Walter F. González |
| One Step Closer to the Savior By Russell T. Osguthorpe |
What are some of your thoughts after studying these talks? What kind of learning has affected your own conversion? In what ways have the teaching of others helped your testimony to grow? And how does this affect your own teaching, whether in a classroom setting or with your own children? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
(A reminder to those of you who are new to General Conference Book Club: You’re welcome to return to this post any time this week and leave your comment and thoughts in the comment section below. You may also want to see what others are saying about the talk and engage in a conversation for mutual understanding and encouragement. A new talk will be posted each Sunday and will be studied and discussed throughout the week.)
Diapers and Divinity 
These talks help to remind me about the theme of the importance of conversion that I felt was stressed during conference. I feel so blessed to have so many resources and to hear so much counsel on how to help our children become converted to the gospel. I loved Brother Osguthorpe’s story of the sister in Costa Rica who said “I read the Book of Mormon every morning. Then I read something in Teaching No Greater Call so I can teach my children in the very best way what I’ve just learned.”
