Nothing very exciting, but in primary we did both "This Little Light of Mine" and "I'm Gonna Live So God Can Use Me."

"Patji represents a god who wants us to suffer opposition to help us grow, a Latter-day Saint idea best reflected in 2 Nephi 2 and its discussion of opposition in all things."

This is my favorite from that list. I love how it conveys the joy and urgency of the message of the atonement.

Served up this ad today. As a college instructor, this makes me angry. Legit encouraging students to cheat as a way to make money. I mean, we could*pretend* it's encouraging students to use it to review concepts for finals, but we know that's not real. So obviously unethical.
