Perfecting the Saints — One Lesson at a Time
This file can be used to have students summarize For example: “Imagine you are Enos. What would you tweet about your experience with prayer.” or “Imagine you are one of the shepherds who saw angels at Christ’s birth. What would you tweet?” You can even ask students to draw a picture they may have snapped to go along with the tweet.

My goal was for them to really feel connected to Nephi through his frank acknowledgement of his weaknesses and to see from his example that they, too, can rely on the Savior during times of trial.

I made this handout for use with 1 Nephi 5. “When we want to speak to God, we pray; when we want Him to speak to us, we study the scriptures.
