During different dispensations of time, the Lord has provided nutritional guidelines. How well do you understand the instructions we have given for our day and our time? Which foods have been given a sacred calling to provide nutrition for man? What role do herbs play in our diet? When is the best time to eat cauliflower, carrots, apples, or figs and why? When has the Lord instructed us to eat meat, and why? What drink has the Lord specifically instructed us to drink?
In this 4 class Series, we’ll explore the Word of Wisdom and develop a greater understanding and appreciation for the instructions the Lord has provided for “the temporal salvation of all saints in the last days.” Then we’ll learn EASY ways to incorporate these instructions into our everyday lives and everyday meals.
