What if the shorter Sunday lesson was never the problem?

When Sunday School, Relief Society, and Elders Quorum were shortened, many Latter-day Saints worried that meaningful learning would become harder. How can disciples grow when classes last only twenty-five minutes? How can teachers teach enough? How can learners receive enough?

What if the better question is this:
What if the Lord intended the shorter hour to create stronger learners?

In The Twenty-Five Minute Learner, Taylor Halverson, Ph.D., offers a practical and deeply spiritual guide for getting more from every Sunday lesson. Drawing on scripture, covenant discipleship, educational research, and years of teaching experience, he shows how ordinary Saints can transform twenty minutes of class into a week of meaningful learning and spiritual growth.

Rather than focusing on what teachers should do, this book focuses on what learners can do.
Discover how to:
• Prepare for Sunday before you enter the classroom
• Read scripture in ways that shape the coming week
• Bring meaningful questions into class discussions
• Listen more deeply to the Spirit and to fellow Saints
• Learn even when a lesson feels imperfect
• Use silence as a tool for spiritual insight
• Memorize and carry scripture throughout the week
• Turn Sunday lessons into real-life discipleship
• Become a co-learner rather than a passive observer
• Receive more from twenty-five minutes than many receive from an hour

Through practical tools such as the Read-Carry-Listen-Speak-Take framework, weekly learning practices, spiritual preparation habits, and reflection exercises, readers learn how to approach every Sunday with the heart of a disciple.
Whether you are a lifelong Church member, a new convert, a teacher, a leader, a returning Saint, or someone seeking a richer Come, Follow Me experience, this book provides a clear path toward deeper engagement with the gospel.

Because the goal of Sunday is not merely attending a class.

The goal is becoming a disciple.
And every disciple is a learner.
