The Ready Resource for Relief Society - Teachings of the Presidents of The Church: Gordon B Hinkley

About the book: Whether you’re a new teacher or a seasoned veteran, preparing Relief Society lessons just got easier. For each lesson in the manual, this ready resource includes an accompanying chapter summary, pertinent quotes, relevant hymns, object lessons, and more. Now you can focus more on personalizing your lessons for the sisters in your ward!

My review: This is a great resource if you're teaching Relief Society in your ward!

I liked the way that this is set up. Each chapter corresponds to a chapter in the Gordon B Hinkley Teachings of the Presidents of the Church book that we're studying this year. Each chapter includes songs that you could use with them, a quick summary of the chapter, quotes you can use with the chapter, art that you can use, and a few object lessons as well. There's even a place for you to write any notes or thoughts you have as you're reading the lesson.

I was sent an e-copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

About the author: Trina Boice grew up in California and moved to Las Vegas a few years ago.   In 2004 she was honored as the California Young Mother of the Year, an award which completely amuses her 4 sons.  She’s the author of 21 books, with another hitting store shelves soon!  

Trina currently teaches at the famous Le Cordon Bleu Cooking School in Las Vegas, as well as online for BYU-Idaho. She also writes movie reviews at www.MovieReviewMom.com 
Trina earned two Bachelor’s degrees from BYU where she competed on the Speech and Debate team and the Ballroom Dance Team.  She was President of the National Honor Society Phi Eta Sigma and served as ASBYU Secretary of Student Community Services.   She is currently a doctoral candidate at Colorado Technical University.

Trina also studied at the University of Salamanca in Spain and later returned there to serve an LDS mission in Madrid for 1 ½ years.  She has a Real Estate license, Travel Agent license, 2 Master’s degrees, and a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, although she’s the first one to admit she’d pass out from fright if she were ever really attacked by a bad guy. 
She worked as a Legislative Assistant for a Congressman in Washington D.C., and was given the “Points of Light” Award and Presidential Volunteer Service Award for her domestic and international community service. She wrote a column called “The Boice Box” for a newspaper in Georgia, where she lived for 15 years.  She now writes for The Answer Newspaper, 702events.com, Homemaking-Cottage.com, BigWorldNetwork.com and is the Entertainment News Editor forBellaOnline.com.  

Trina was selected by KPBS in San Diego to be a political correspondent during the last presidential election.  If she told you what she really did she’d have to kill you.
She loves to give away prizes and teach others how to earn and save money.  Check out her current contests and freebies at www.trinasbooks.com.
