TFOT Teacher Needs Help

[Anonymous UserParticipant]

I'm a TFOT teacher and was given the topic of FAMILIES for my February lesson. I was given an old 2003 Conference talk HERE to go off of but was also told that it didn't need to be the main resource.

I'm hoping that someone out there has given a RS talk based on the family with or without a specific conference talk resource that you would be willing to share.

I would love an outline or some notes

THANK YOU!!

I felt so blessed to have the calling of TFOT teacher for several years in my ward.  I truly enjoyed it and learned so much.

In my ward, the TFOT teachers were instructed to use almost exclusively the most current conference addresses to base our lessons on.  In fact, the stake presidency and the bishopric decided on which talks would be the basis for each month's lesson.  So the main part of the talk was based on one current talk and I often brought in other parts from talks also from the most current general conference.

You might try to look up families in the topic index of the most current conference and prayerfully select some thoughts to share.  As I evolved in this calling I went from lecturing and reading my lessons almost word for word to being able to really draw the sisters into the lesson by stating a thought and following it with a question and then another thought following by a question/discussion.  This way I spoke minimally and got wonderful input from the sisters as guided by the Spirit.

As to your topic of families–wow, that is a very broad topic.  I would suggest that you prayerfully select an aspect of families that Heavenly Father knows the sisters in your ward need to learn about.  And then rely on the most current conference talks to teach about this aspect.

Thank you for accepting this most wonderful calling and may you always have the Spirit with you in your preparation and presenting.
