I teach 11 - 15 year old Sunday school. One boy is kind, thoughtful, is dyslexic and stutters. One girl has a tendency to mock this very tall, handsome young man by comparing her superior use of proper grammar to his sometimes incorrect word usage. There is another girl who is extremely introverted. The boy answered a question correctly, but his sentence structure was a bit off. Smart girl corrected his wording and told him he needed to listen to her speak and learn how to do it correctly. I was getting ready to stop her when the introverted girl looked up with a wicked look on her face and she called to the smart girl and loudly said, "Hmmm... I'm thinking you need to remember who in this room got the highest SAT score, by far.. I kinda remember it was not you. It was me. You don't have any place to belittle anyone." The smart girl has kept her mouth in check since.
Oh my! This was so good. So well said. I have been preaching to my family since 2021 that a division is here and getting worse. They mostly poo pah me and say “soothing” church platitudes to me. Oh, I don’t think so Mom. I think people have been saying this stuff for years and nothing much changes. They look at each other and raise their eyebrows knowingly and I tell them EVERY THING HAS CHANGED! I tell them that Noah preached for years about the flood and one day it happened. There was kind of a big change. When I speak of the “big change“ of the election and what that’s going to bring forth… They say things like but nothings happened. It’s just going to be the way it was when he was in the first term. They’re just going to attack him constantly and then he’ll be out and, there will be another election. There will only be six of us for Thanksgiving this year ! 😂 not because they’re mad at me, but because they’re sick of me and they do not understand. They are so very comfortable in their lives. They can’t imagine things changing because their eyes are not open. And it is happening right in front of them. I hope this made sense.
My parents taught me the importance of nutrition and exercise. I sprout and grind ancient grains for sourdough bread. Buy meat from a local ranch, grow a garden. Doing my best pass this information on to my children.
Watcher Palmer , this was a breath of fresh air . At first, I thought my heart valve didn't go well, and President Benson was preaching again . Mountain pack goats ? I never even imagined. 😮
I used to stock bricklayers for a summer job when I was a kid and the old timers would chew plug tobacco. Now when you have guys chewing tobacco above you on scaffolding and you are below, you have to watch yourself.
Scott: Love it! On Bullying, funny you should say that, my son in law that you met has said this exact thing. The things he says are more "Archie Bunker" than me, but if you hear him out...there's logic to it. It's the self-correcting mechanism, or used to be, for our children. DEI vs. Meritocracy: I say eliminate the minimum wage so our children can learn invaluable work skills at McDonald's or Buddy's or Marie Callender's Pies in my day. Someone working at McDonald's should not be expecting to support a family of four on that wage...unless he is a district or general manager. The church does this with Deseret Industries. That is a job creation enterprise, and job training enterprises, that hires a lot of people who would not be employable elsewhere, but can get some confidence and experience and hopefully they can move to a hire paying job. Everyone has got to start somewhere.
Great Video I think that like in the scriptures when the prophets stop with the hell and damn fire speeches is because we have gone past that point and now its just you know what's coming you have been warned and here are some uplifting topics to help get you through what we have been warning you about for decades. I just tell people how I feel and let them react how they want to Remember Brigham Young said "if you are offended and offence was not the intention your a fool also if you get offended and offence was the purpose you are still a fool.
I enjoy your video’s and while I don’t always agree with you, they are always full of information and heartfelt testimony. I love that. I have to say I am confused by wokeness in the church. Is it a Utah thing? If so why would anyone want to stay in Utah!? Hahaha I have never had to face anything like what you have described here in Texas, but then I don’t live in Austin so….. maybe that would make a difference. Lol. It’s just crazy to me how people can proclaim to know and understand Jesus Christ and still support the whole woke-ism movement. I have no doubt the weeding out process of the wheat and tares started some time ago and we are probably nearing the end. I hope. Thanks again for your insights and scriptural knowledge. Susan
16 For if a brother or sister be naked and destitute, and one of you say, Depart in peace, be warmed and filled; notwithstanding he give not those things which are needful to the body; what profit is your faith unto such? 17 Even so faith, if it have not works is dead, being alone.
Scott I have to agree with you bullying approach. But parents either teach submission and victimhood and never teaching a child to stand your ground and be defensive with physical contact. But adults need to temper he children’s bullying. Teaching both sides to consider the individual and the group.

So good. Thank you for sharing this
Whoa! Love that!

wokeness is not really disappearing; it's just fleeing into the wilderness, maybe for a time, and times, and half a time.
It's hiding in the shadows as it regroups for its final assault run.
Ah, the good old memories of being accused of being an apostate for not getting the jab. Just seems like yesterday. 😂
Another great (non-monetized) podcast! I wrote down the scriptures you mentioned to be ready to use when SS or RS sounds too woke. Thx!
Wow❣️AMEN❣️
You Stand For Something❣️❣️❣️ YES❣️Good backup scriptures❣️❣️❣️
I like your thinking! I’m going to tell my husband this is why I need more shoes…and coats…and pants…and lol
Don't speak against D.idn't E.arn I.t

Yay!!!! I'm so glad to see you TODAY 🎉

wheat and tares keep weeding them out… another great video
Thank you for the great info. I be always enjoy listening to you.
😂 my son is an airplane mechanic and tools for work is his downfall lol 😂
I call our church the McDonald’s of religion. Everything is ran according to the corporate protocols and is the same everywhere.
Hey Bro. P. I always appreciate hearing your level headed thoughts. Keep up the good work.
The term is “peer pressure”.
More examples of non-softies were John the Baptist and Elijah.
Don’t trust in the arm of flesh

Made me laugh. I watched those shows too

I agree
Bro. Palmer,
Why do we have to stand up for what is right? What do the scriptures and temple covenants say about our duty to defend truth & virtue?
@@jeff3olsen great questions. Thank you.
I guess that’s the advantage of being a low attention span society. The bad trends go out of style overnight. It’s all who has the social impact.

Did you lnow Zelenski went to SLC and meet with the top Q15 leadership a few months ago?
@@allthingsarepossiblethruchrist I saw that. He was probably begging for money
@@watcherpalmerlds do you think they gave him money?
You didnt finish the story about the meeting...
What is DEI?
