Discipleship Project – Sadie Mae Torgesen Name: Sadie Mae Torgesen Instructor name: Anguiano Class: REL 250C, Section: A7 General Instructions Save this template on your computer with a filename such as “Jon Doe Discipleship Project.” The thoughts and goals you share on this document will guide your efforts throughout the rest of the semester. You will have the opportunity to report and reflect on your progress on your weekly personal reports. Please feel free to return to this document often and make necessary adjustments and changes as you feel prompted. Project Plan Before writing your plan: Ponder what Elder Kim B. Clark (“ Eyes to See and Ears to Hear ,” October 2015) has taught at General Conference: “Whatever level of spirituality or faith or obedience we now have, it will not be sufficient for the work that lies ahead. We need greater spiritual light and power. We need eyes to see more clearly the Savior working in our lives and ears to hear His voice more deeply in our hearts. This marvelous blessing comes when we open our hearts and receive, truly receive, the Lord Jesus Christ, His doctrine, and His Church into our lives. We do not have to be perfect, but we need to be good and getting better . We need to strive to live the plain and simple truths of the gospel.” Elder Clark encourages those seeking to be good at getting better and to regularly ask ourselves two questions: a) What am I doing that I should stop doing? b) What am I not doing that I should start doing?" (CES Fireside, August 2015) Watch or Read following: o Elder Larry Lawrence, What Lack I Yet ? Ensign , October 2015 o View LDS Media: What Lack I Yet? Now spend some time reflecting on gospel principles/doctrines taught about Christ and being a disciple of Christ. Next, prayerfully identify and share one area of discipleship you would like to make progress on. Remember, you will be focused on improving yourself in this one area for the rest of the semester. Write a 300- to 400-word project plan answering the following questions: 1. Describe the area of discipleship that you want to improve in your life and what caused you to desire to work on this area in your life at this time. Share a doctrine or principle that inspires you to improve in this area and where it is found in the scriptures or Church publications. 2. Set a goal and specifically describe the steps you will take to develop the attribute you have chosen and apply the doctrine or principle to your life over the next several weeks. 3. Identify any anticipated challenges , and explain what you will do to overcome them. 4. Explain how you will keep a personal record or journal of your progress over the coming weeks. I decided that for my project I want to focus on reaching out for help. I have been struggling with accepting help from others. I am in a crazy time of my life where I know I will need help, and I will struggle if I go through it alone. I have believed for a long time that asking for help is a sign of weakness, but recently realized it is truly a sign of strength. I looked up “reaching out for help” on the Church’s app, and I was sent to an article written for Young Adults, titled, “Humility: Embracing Our Need for God’s Help”. A big thing I am going to need to work on is humbling myself. I need to stop telling myself that I can do it on my own and start accepting that I need help from others.
Every week of this semester, I am going to ask for help three times. I am going to send a message to a friend, professor, or family when I need something explained to me. Or I will talk to a leader or friend when I am struggling to find motivation to do what I need to remain successful. I anticipate that what I will struggle with the most is allowing others to do what they can to make my load lighter. To overcome this, I will work with my therapist and say many prayers asking for help, learning to accept the help of others. I do not like when I am not in control, so it will be good for me to learn how to work alongside with others. I will journal once a week, about what I needed help with, who I asked, how it made me feel, and what I did to get help. As I look back on my entries throughout the semester, I am sure I will be able to recognize the help and the hand of the Lord, and it will eventually become easier for me to reach out and accept help.
