[Teachldsseminary] OT -- Inspiration

[JENNIFER]

My thought on this is, that it is her calling and she should be getting the 
inspiration as to which hymns would be the best fit for the meeting.  Is 
there really a right or wrong way to pick a hymn from our hymn book?  It is 
not worth hard feelings over...sometimes we need to let the small things go.
