Come Follow Me: Mormon 1-6 (October 26 - November 1)
Throughout the week, I will be uploading new ideas to this page!
Mormon 2:26.
"The strength of the Lord was not with us; yea we were left to ourselves, that the Spirit of the Lord did not abide in us; therefore we had become weak like unto our brethren." The Nephites knew the gospel, and willingly chose NOT to follow the commandments. They became so wicked, and had many chances to repent and chose not to. In Mormon 6:12-15 it talks about the many leaders and their thousands of soldiers that fell.
Mormon 1:13-14.
“Wickedness did prevail upon the face of the whole land, insomuch that the Lord did take away his beloved disciples.” We recently learned how Jesus came to visit the Americas, and established a beautiful church built on prophets, the priesthood, prayer and gospel principles.
Does your child have a favorite stuffed animal? What would they do if someone starting being rough with the stuffy or grabbed a pair of scissors to cut it up? This analogy is how Heavenly Father feels. His disciples are so important, and because the people were so wicked, He took the disciples away which led to a natural falling of the church.
Mormon 1:1-3.
I can be righteous like Mormon. Last year, I created this Choose the Right board game that would go well with this principle in Come Follow Me this week. Talk about the word righteous, what it means and how we can make righteous choices. When we choose good choices, we are happier and it brings us closer to Heavenly Father. This game comes with choice cards (swipe left) and playing games is always a way to make gospel study more fun.
