Surge in Motivation

Last night was the first in-service with Brother Baker. He is quite different from Brother Adamson, so I'm looking forward to learning about different aspects of teaching the gospel. He solved my dilemma of whether to read the whole Book of Mormon this summer or spend my time memorizing scriptures. He challenged each of us to memorize all 25 before the school year begins. He also gave out a ton of good resources and suggested we go buy a few more. So my TODO list before September is:

-Memorize the scripture mastery verses
-Read J Reuben Clark's The Charted Course
-Read Lectures on Faith
-Read Teaching the Gospel
-Purchase Charting the Book of Mormong (FARMS)
-Check out the always-improving CES website
-Figure out how I'll do grades
-Figure out how I'll do devotionals

It's doable, and I'm pretty pumped up from last night. I am a little worried that once seminary actually starts and I'll be able to practice things every morning I'll be so tired that my motivation will fall. We'll see...
