wisdom. A responsible steward of our learning means to see everything we’ve been given as a
gift. In the Bible (Matthew 25: 14-20), we’re encouraged to return to God what we’ve been given
with increase. This scripture (and many other passages) teach us how to use education and our
unique gifts to promote the kingdom of God, peace, and justice, and the dignity of life.
Responsible stewardship of our learning is what the Lord requires in every one of us. When
Jesus Christ was lost during in his early days his parents found Him in the Temple teaching and
sharing His divine knowledge to elders. During the Sermon on the Mount he was sharing the
Gospel through parables not only through words but also through action on how they can be
good stewards of their wisdom; He was a great teacher and ultimate example on how we can be a
Everything we do, in every moment of life, involves learning; every movement we make,
every emotion we feel, every thought we think, every word we speak, and every belief we
believe. Even babies learn to become children, children learn to become teens, and teens learn to
development…and on and on… every aspect of human life involves learning stewardship, far
more any other human activity; it shapes each and all of our lives. That’s why we need to be a
responsible steward of learning, because in all aspects of our lives has a principle to be learned
and to be acquired that requires sharing to grow and flourished. Peter Senge a renowned systems
scientist once said “Sharing knowledge is not about giving people something, or getting
something from them. That is only valid for information sharing. Sharing knowledge occurs
when people are genuinely interested in helping one another develop new capacities for action; it

A faithful steward is one who exercises righteous dominion, cares for his own, and looks to the
poor and needy.” That’s why I believe that we need to be great stewards of our learning as
continually reminded by prophets and apostles of the church. As a young boy reaching the age of
twelve and preparing for young men will have the duty to pass the sacrament and share my
testimony, I can often heard members of our ward saying this during the testimony meeting
“Don’t Keep It, Share It” They were saying in order for someone to gain a personal divinity or
testimony of the Lord and His church they must need to share it. Also the same during my full
time mission in the Southern Philippines if I didn’t share my testimony and the things I’ve
learned in my Seminary and Institute Class, I may not able to inspired souls to repent and accept
the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Really being a good steward of learning is needed for me, my family,
my profession and business, and to my church calling. Indeed this feeling of accountability to be
a great steward of our learning which was encompassed by the second great commandment to
love others and has been described by some as “obedience to the unenforceable.” And as a
member of the Church we try to do what is right because we love and want to please our Father
in Heaven, not because someone is forcing us to obey. And I believe it must be the ultimate
reason on why we must be good stewards of learning. My hope and prayer that I will always
remember this things, that I may be able to share all the knowledge, wisdoms, and blessings that
