From Elder Millano I have learned what we affectionately call the Russian stacking doll principle. Basically everything we do has a larger and smaller equivalent either having more or less detail. So like... idk, lets start with church organization, that's an easy one to see. starts with a family. then we have home teachers over a couple of families, then we have bishop's over a couple of home teachers, then stake presidents and so on. Pretty simple, it get less simple when you deal with abstract idea's like sacrifice or agency. It works for topics like the atonement or the plan of salvation. For example a seed is a Russian stacking doll of the resurrection. Death burial and new life. The Restoration also is a stacking doll of the resurrection.
