Urban Poly Princess

I asked bishop if he found us a good mission leader in Relief Society. He said he did. I told him uh so we aren't having class yet and he said no your mission leader is teaching class so I go there and it's Jon. I think I cursed myself into having him become my mission leader. Today the lesson was on the organization of the priesthood. His home teacher Spencer joined us for his lesson.

His doctrinal knowledge SUCKS bigtime. VERY ANNOYING!!! What is Heavenly Father trying to do to me???!!! What am I supposed to learn from this. I just kept thinking he was an idiot during class and I'm sure I get to deal with this because I was already fearing this would occur. I'm going to specifically ask the bishop to get some male ward missionaries. I talked about how every Apostle is given all the keys but these are all just active with the prophet. Spencer said they had the keys collectively as a quorum. I don't think so. I think EVERY as in EACH apostle holds ALL the keys although these are only active completely with the prophet. I wanted to tell him my patriarchal blessing specifically states my husband will hold the keys of the priesthood BUUUT it wasn't the right setting and my motive behind that wasn't exactly good either.

Jon is a horrible teacher. We also have this guy in our ward who used to be married. I don't know if he's slow BUUUT he NEVER answers a question directly. He likes to talk however so he is always saying stuff that may or may not make sense. I don't know what to do with this. I canceled my appointment to teach Ericka the discussions because I know how important the boundaries are and the reason why they exist. Bishop said why because it's just about friendship. I told him in order for me to access the spirit I need to have the mantle sooo he went and asked Porter if it was alright if I just taught Ericka.

OF COURSE Porter's going to agree, that doesn't mean it's the way it should be. They actually don't have the authority to do that. What the hell is the problem with my priesthood leaders? I'm trying to teach Ericka how the gospel is one of order and they ignore that completely. WOW!!! These are the challenges I always seem to get. Krista said Andrew came to church. Yeah NOT going out of my way to talk to him. He can find and talk to me.

I just found this online in the priesthood manual: Duties and Blessings of the Priesthood:
Although each Apostle holds all the keys of the priesthood, it is the Lord’s plan that only one man at a time exercise these keys on behalf of the Church.

NOTHING about the quorum holding these collectively. Do I tell Spencer. He needs to know. How do I do that without being childish and wanting to prove him wrong because I do. He needs to be informed. What do I do?

How do I do it nicely. Do I have to correct people all the time? It needs to be made clear in class. This is gospel principles for a reason. We are supposed to be sharing pure and CORRECT doctrine.

I volunteered to teach next week.
