A young man graduating from seminary told Chad Webb, administrator of seminaries and institutes of religion, that he had been in class every day for four years and never been late.
Webb asked him, "How did you do that?"
The young man responded, "I just learned that when the alarm clock goes off, you get up."
Though that may not be the first blessing to come up when speaking of early morning seminary, Webb said it is a legitimate one.
"To have learned that lesson is valuable," he said. "When the Lord calls you, you get up, and you're where you're supposed to be."
Webb recently shared thoughts about early morning seminary in a LDS Church News interview.
