How can I best study the General Conference talks from October 2015?
I’m starting today by listening to a talk by Elder Devin Durant.
He talks about saving money weekly. Small efforts practiced over time can create significant results.
What does it mean to Ponderize?
- Choose a verse of scripture each week and put it in a place you can see it every day.
- Read or think of the verse several times a day and ponder the meaning of its words and key phrases throughout the week.
As I practice this idea, I will get new perspective. Memorization will take place easily and naturally.
Nephi said his soul delighted in the scriptures and he pondered them on how they would help his family and children.
There are 41 talks from the October 2015 General Conference.
There are 30 weeks from now until the next conference. That’s 210 days.
I’d like to listen to each talk at least 3 times. What will that take?
That means that if I study one talk each day, or maybe two days in a row, I could get through all the talks 3 times before the next conference.
41 talks x 3 times each = 123 days
210 total days / 123 days = 1.7 days
I can study each talk for a day and a half as long as I don’t miss a day of study.
Now the calendar:
