Week 5: 2 Nephi 17-27 & Basic Doctrines Paper

This week the readings cover 2 Nephi 17-27. 

Good news & bad news: The good news is there is no weekly post due this week...just keep reading. The bad news (which is really not bad news) is that you have the Basic Doctrines paper due next Monday (30 September). No stress, keep it simple!

Here are the guidelines for the Basic Doctrines paper: Select a basic doctrine from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and explore the doctrine through the lens of the Book of Mormon. That is, use only the Book of Mormon to explore one of the basic doctrines of the Church in your paper. It is appropriate to insert your feelings, but please try to approach the paper as if you were explaining the doctrine from the Book of Mormon to a non-member friend. Select a basic doctrine from the following:
    •  Godhead
    • Plan of Salvation
    • Atonement of Jesus Christ
    • Dispensation, Apostasy & Restoration
    • Prophets & Revelation
    • Priesthood & Priesthood Keys
    • Ordinances & Covenants
    • Marriage & Family
    • Commandments
Okay, if you are stressing, stop. The only wrong paper is the paper not completed (unless you decide to write about something else besides what I have asked for...yeash). 

So remember, this paper can be up to three pages, BUT NO MORE, please. All papers should be submitted to me via email (palmersj@ldschurch.org) before Oct. 1. 

Keep it real & stress less.
Bro Palmer
