Teaching the Gospel: The Lord's Way

Aren't we all teachers even if that is not our current calling?  We teach our children, we teach our friends, we teach our co-workers, we even teach ourselves many things.  When we are teaching the gospel, we need to be aware of teaching in The Lord's way.

Teachers of the gospel of Jesus Christ have been given a sacred trust. Their purpose goes beyond simply teaching lessons. Elder Dallin H. Oaks said, “A gospel teacher will never be satisfied with just delivering a message or preaching a sermon. A superior gospel teacher wants to assist in the Lord’s work to bring eternal life to His children” (“Gospel Teaching,” Ensign, Nov. 1999, 80).
