New Burgh Zone Conference

AP's, Elder Improta, Elder Bown, the "Hunting analogy"

Zone conference is always a treat. We love learning from the AP's and Zone Leaders and the Searles. The spirit is always so strong and we are always so amazed at the ability of these young men. The Lord truly takes them and molds them into fine embassadors for him. It is so interesting the perspective I now have of the great responsibility we all have to share the gospel. I think sometimes we are afraid to open our mouths out of fear of rejection. Well I know that is a huge reason. Our training today was on Finding the Elect and not wasting our precious time on those who are doing just that, wasting precious time. I loved the analogy that the AP's used. When you have a tag to go hunting a deer, we know exactly what it is we are hunting. We are not out there looking for turkeys, rabbits, or moose. We go right after the deer because that is what we are after. The spirit allows us to receive revelation as to who is really interested in the message we are here to share. Instantly we can know if we found a deer.
