Understand Doctrine

Learn

Read Doctrine and Covenants 20:68. Part of your duty as a priest is to “expound all things concerning the church of Christ.” Review the lists of doctrinal topics you studied as a deacon and as a teacher. Then write in the next section four or more additional topics you will learn about and teach over the next two years.

Study D&C 4; 13; 20:46–60; 84:18–27; 107:1–21; 121:34–46; and 124:142–43 again. Reflect on your experiences and update your outline on “The Priesthood and Priesthood Keys”. Write about how your understanding and appreciation of the priesthood has changed.

In preparation to become a full-time missionary, make a list of questions someone might ask about the topics you have studied, and discuss these questions with a parent or priesthood leader.
