Women in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are teachers. Women teach formally and informally, both in large and small settings to children, teenagers, women, and to mixed groups of adult men and women. Women also teach in the home, which has been emphasized recently as the center of gospel learning. The opportunities women have to influence and strengthen others through teaching the gospel is exciting and faith-promoting, but it can also be intimidating or overwhelming. In this episode, Kaylen Walton Nelson, a full-time Seminary teacher, shares practical tips for creating greater belonging, conversion, and relevance in any teaching situation, and why those three principles matter. Kaylen also shares how women can learn more about opportunities to teach Seminary or Institute part-time or full-time, and how she has come to more fully love and embrace her opportunities to gather Israel as a teacher and leader in the Church.
