Using This Issue
Access the power of the word. The scriptures have meaning and power in our lives today. (See pp. 14–24.) Can you think of a time when a scripture has spoken powerfully to you? What patterns did you follow then—and how can those practices help you access the power of the scriptures to find direction now?
Live gospel standards. Pages 25–33 focus on modesty and other standards of gospel living. When was the last time you reviewed the “For the Strength of Youth” pamphlet? Consider rereading it in your next family home evening. (If you don’t have a copy of the pamphlet, you can access it at www.lds.org. Go to Gospel Library > Support Materials > Youth.)
Improve your employment-searching skills. “Way Beyond the Help-Wanted Ads” (p. 58) tells success stories of people who turned to Employment Resource Services for help in finding work and improving their skills. For additional tools and information about finding employment, visit employment.lds.org
