Teaching “Daughters in My Kingdom”

When “Daughters in My Kingdom” came out, my husband looked through it and said, “You know, I’d really like to teach this in the Elders’ Quorum.” He’s not currently called as an Elders’ Quorum teacher so he asked the Elders’ Quorum president for special permission to teach it as the 1st Sunday lesson each month for a year. The Elders’ Quorum president liked the idea, went to the bishop, who also liked the idea, and so since January 2012, my husband has been teaching the Elders’ Quorum the history of the Relief Society using “Daughters in My Kingdom” as the source text. Maybe next year, our Relief Society will take the cue and do it as well…
