The study of the doctrines of the gospel will improve behavior quicker than a study of behavior will improve behavior” (in Conference Report,Oct. 1986, 20; or Ensign, Nov. 1986, 17). As mayor of Nauvoo, Joseph was called upon to render judgment on Anthony, a black man who had not only been selling […]

We discussed why Paul was so effective and could each with power (he focused on the spiritual-inward preparations and did not concern himself with what the world thought of him)One of my students recently received a mission call and I began the lesson asking about the instructions he…

Downloaded from: http://brosimonsays.wordpress.com/2013/04/22/2-timothy-1-4-perilous-problems-and-scripture-solutions/ In small groups, students began by creating a list of common sins in our society. We listed a few on the board and compared our list to Paul’s list in 2 Timothy 3:1-5. Just as President Packer illustrated in a talk he gave, we were able to see that Paul’s list is a perfect “checklist” […]

Downloaded from: http://ldsseminary.wordpress.com/2013/04/19/1st-and-2nd-thessalonians-becoming-converted/ Much of the discussion in 1st Thessalonians has to do with becoming converted to Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 1:7-10, 2:12, 3:12-13, and 4:1-5 all emphasize the importance of Christians “walking the walk” of a Christ-centered life. As it is stated … Continue reading →

Well today is your lucky […]

We compared the For the Strength of Youth (FSOY) booklet to Paul’s epistle to Timothy. Students discovered and shared counsel that was given by Paul to Timothy that corresponded to counsel given by President Monson to the youth. By […]

Downloaded from: http://brosimonsays.wordpress.com/2013/04/18/2-thessalonians-1-3-apostasy-and-restoration-dont-fall-away-today/ Students discovered some of the key elements of Christ’s true church by using the True to the Faith booklet to determine what was lost as a result of the Apostasy or what was revealed as part of the Restoration. To help visualize, we wrote down those elements on disposable cups. Students explained the necessity of each one. […]

Downloaded from: http://brosimonsays.wordpress.com/2013/04/16/1-thessalonians-1-5-walk-with-god-what-how-why/ “You can talk the talk, but can you walk the walk?” An age-old challenge for every Christian! We know the right answers, but are we choosing the right? We started our lesson by creating acrostic poems for the word WALK. It was just a regular acrostic to get the concept down and focus on the word WALK. Students shared a few and then created another acrostic for…

Downloaded from: http://brosimonsays.wordpress.com/2013/04/15/colossians-1-4-catch-phrases-on-christ-and-christian-conduct/ The effect of the encroaching heresy [an odd blend of Jewish religion and Greek philosophy] was to diminish the preeminence of Jesus Christ. Paul corrected this false idea by teaching that Christ is the very image of God, that He is the Creator, the Head of the Church, the first to be resurrected, a member of the Godhead, the Redeemer, and the “hope of the gospel, which ye have heard” (Colossians 1:15–23). We began the activity by defining what a catch-phrase is. We then demonstrated our understanding by recalling common catch-phrases that students are familiar with today–both worldly and religious. Once we had firmly established what a catch-phrase was we did a little experiment to test the epistle for catch-phrases. I asked each student to pick a random verse from any chapter…
