    My dad used filmstrips and a flannel board on his mission. I used six set lessons. This new-fangled Preach My Gospel manual is for coddling youngsters who can’t handle memorization.

    Having said that, this new manual includes teachings that were anti-Mormon lies 30 years ago.

    Side question: do all missionaries refer to their investigators as “friends” now or is that just my brother’s mission? I find it mildly abusive of the word friend.

      Sounds like they are trying to convince the missionaries more than the investigators. Trying to keep them from seeing them as numbers. Too bad the mission presidents and apostles see them that way.
