Teach the CHILDREN!

This week in CFM, the Lord gives some counsel to parents about their responsibility to teach their children the gospel. And the same is true today. We PARENTS are on the front line of our kids’ gospel learning, its exciting and daunting…right mom and dad?  Joseph and Emma loved their children…but Joseph also loved ALL children. In this week’s episode, I dig into my files of first-hand stories about Brother Jospeh (which I love collecting) and share with you 8 different stories that show how the prophet interacted with and treated children. He gave them such specific attention…rather rare for a man of that time period. I promise, some of these stories - you have never heard before.  Enjoy! And keep keepin’ on parents! You got this!

“I forgive you” – POWERFUL words

Based on feedback from all of you these past four years, this D&C 64 episode is one of your favoritest episodes I have done. Parents keep asking, “Where was that episode about the ducks and diapers again!” For some reason, the “D & D” concept on offering forgiveness really hit home for families (or maybe they just liked watching what happens when a fully water saturated diaper hits the pavement at high speeds :) haha). Either way, enjoy this one! I hope this video helps your family learn to forgive each other all the time and not be easily “annoyed” and to not hold grudges (something some of the early saints had a hard time with).

AND… here’s your BONUS VIDEO for this week (sorry it was a little late). Having been gone for 10 days on the YOUTH CHURCH HISTORY ADVENTURE, I’m a little behind the eight ball here as far as video production. BUT…it was totally worth it! What an amazing time we had – fun, bonding, testimony building experiences throughout for all. The Lord is good!

Lessons Learned on the Return

FIRST OF ALL…I send you GREETINGS from our AWESOME Church History Adventure! I am having so much fun with our incredible group of youth this year. Sacred Grove, Hill Cumorah, Susquehanna River, Kirtland Temple, Missouri sites, Nauvoo, Carthage… we hit all the sites! All you who will be 16-18 next summer, I hope you’ll join us in 2026!  It’s the adventure of a youth-time!

Meanwhile, back on the CFM ranch…its time now for Jospeh and brethren to return from Independence, Missouri back to Kirtland. It’s been a successful journey, having identified the location of Zion and strengthened the saints living there. But, there are grumblers among the group…and pretty soon, men become very critical of Joseph and begin the first stages of full-blown rebellion! So, let’s talk about REBELLION versus WEAKNESS. What can we learn from them that we can apply to ourselves? More great lessons from the Doctrine & Covenants this week! Enjoy!

D&C 58-59

Bro Bo’s FAVORITE D&C Scripture!

Hey Friends! If I had to pick one favorite verse from the Doctrine & Covenants, it would be in this week's CFM ---D&C 58:27.  It contains the key to a happy, successful, productive, and even cleansed life. It's what being a disciple of Jesus Christ is all about! In this episode, we focus a lot on this verse (and the other verses around it) and how we can apply them to ourselves right now. If you take these truths to heart, it will be a “game changer” for ya. Promise! AND… at the end of this episode, I GIVE A VIDEO SUBMISSION CHALLENGE – Send those vids to – davidbowmanart@gmail.com – something fun to do during these long summer days at home!

Also, this week, I am doing our YOUTH CHURCH HISTORY ADVENTURE! So excited to have some of your sons and daughters on board! I'll post some video of it soon…right here.
