Larson discusses the decline in the use of Gospel Essential lessons to religious education. In these days of "sound bite" journalism, and discourse reduced to a twitter, brevity is now in vogue. And the trend is sadly reflected at church. The 2010-11 priesthood/Relief Society study guide, Gospel Principles, was decidedly long on very basic doctrine and decidedly short on contextual examples. Most auxiliary lesson material is similarly standardized, as if programmed by a computer.
