Summary
An ideal talk that supports the new 2015 Mutual theme!
In classic Bytheway style, John approaches the soon-to-be announced youth theme with both humor and solid teaching. Through stories, examples, his own personal experience, and scriptural insight, John Bytheway will help the youth in your family or ward understand the 2015 youth theme on a deeper level and learn how it is personally meaningful to them. In the end, he motivates all of us to become better ourselves and to share what we have with others.In this motivating talk based on D & C 4:2, John Bytheway explains what it means to truly embark--to get fully on board in the service of God with all your heart, might, mind, and strength.
Using scriptures, powerful stories, and his charismatic teaching style, John explains that with the Savior's help, we can remain on board, arrive at our destination, and stand blameless before God at the last day. (Description on the back of the CD case.)
My Review
"If you're going to embark, embark... It's time to get on board."
I was thrilled to jump on board of this blog tour for Embark! I have three daughters, with two in the Young Women's program. We listened to this together and we all loved it! John Bytheway does an incredible job of introducing the youth theme for 2015. I love how he is so relatable to all he speaks to, especially teens. I love and appreciate his humor and heartfelt stories. I loved how each part of the scripture D & C 4:2 is broken down into sections, each with it own stories and explanation. He mentions service a lot in this talk, too. John says that instead of giving Him your daily list of needs, ask Him to be guided to someone who you can serve, lose yourself in service. Wonderful advice for us all.
5 out of 5 stars. This CD is to introduce the youth theme for 2015, but can be enjoyed by all ages at any time.
