This is Part 4 of our series on the 25-Minute Adjustment, and it's a different kind of episode: Kevin Jones, Julie Hillyard, and Kyle Smith went live inside ZionLab, the Leading Saints online community, with host Kurt Francom and a room full of ward and stake leaders. Ahead of time they asked the community what worries them most about the shorter second hour, sorted many responses into five themes, and then worked through them live with a bishop, a stake Relief Society president, a Sunday School president, and an elders quorum president in the room.
Inside: how to handle transitions when your building is on a bow-tied schedule, why the adults — not the youth — are the real transition problem, and what actually motivates people to walk into class on time. Then the hard one: how do you make room for people to speak when there isn't enough time for everyone to speak? You'll hear practical tools you can use this Sunday — posting the council topic ahead of time so people arrive ready, small-group shares that get quiet voices heard, teaching the class to validate each other's comments instead of leaving that to the teacher, going five questions deep to turn a comment into a testimony, ending class on a cliffhanger question and picking it up the next week, and letting silence do the teaching after someone shares something vulnerable. Plus a bishop's youth deciding to go completely analog at church, and a first look at two new Teaching Restored tools: an evaluation tool that analyzes the audio of your class, and 25 lesson skeletons built for 25-minute lessons.
