    Nov 24 2024

    0:00-0:31 - Introduction

    0:32-5:18 - Ether 12:23-27

    1. Come unto Christ. 2. He will show you your weakness. 3. Recognize that He has given you weakness to help you be humble, and that His grace or help is enough for you. 4. Humble yourself before Christ. 5. Have faith in Christ. 6. Christ will make “weak things become strong unto you.”

    Michelle Craig quote.

    5:19-10:37 - Doctrinal Mastery – Ether 12:27

    Focus on the principle of adopting the curriculum and then adapting it to your class’s needs. We can focus on adaptations that increase relevance as we feel the Spirit guide us to helping our classes. We also can reframe the conversation in terms of the plan of salvation.

    10:38-15:39 - Ether 12:28-41

    Supplemental learning activities. Jeffrey R. Holland video, Testimony of The Book of Mormon. Question: What can we learn about he character of Jesus Christ from Ether 12:29-41? Possible answers: His will is righteous. He comforts us. He provides miracles for the faithful. He shows himself in great power. He has prepared mansions for us. We can have more excellent hope through Jim. He loves the world so much He laid down His life for it. He took His life back again. He has true charity for me. He is a perfect judge. He will talk to us. We will see Him again.

    15:40-21:02 - Ether 13-15

    The contrast of three characters and what happens to Coriantumr, Shiz, and Ether. Consider looking for “What should followers of Christ teach and do in this time of toxic communications? What were His teachings and examples? How do we move from avoiding temptation to becoming a peacemaker? Dallin H. Oaks, Following Christ, Oct 2024, specifically quote from RM Nelson.

    21:03-22:55 - Asses Your Learning and Conclusion

  • CARE - Ether 6-11
    Nov 15 2024
    0:00-0:35 - Introduction 0:36-6:37 - Ether 6 Likening scriptures to ourselves, helping establish relevance with verses 3, 7, and 10. Help your students see, How could we compare their journey across the ocean to our journey through mortal life? You might help your students see how to avoid the darkness in the world, the spiritually being drowned or destroyed by the monsters of sin that are all around us. After identifying these things, you might ask them: How is Jesus Christ the Light that allows us to escape the monsters around us? How do I see Christ’s light in my life? Elder Rasband quote. Finally, you might emphasize Ether 6:8, see if you can find Jesus Christ in this verse and what it teaches us about Him? 6:38-11:13 - Ether 7-11 The consequence of not listening to prophetic warnings. Yellowstone Warning signs. You can use summarize to help cover more material. Young Adult Weekly Article, "A Look at Our Prophet's Ongoing Warning Call." Boyd K. Packer, Teton Dam story. 11:14-16:59 - Ether 8 Speeding through stories, share a few details and see if anyone can finish the story. What is a secret combination, or making secret plans. Neil L. Andersen quote. You might compare and contrast, how does Satan gain power over us? How does the Lord impart His power into our lives? Sister Tamara Runia story. Is what I’m about to do helpful or hurtful? Satan is always trying to inhibit or harm. Jesus is always trying to help and lift. You might use 2 Nephi 26:33 to emphasize this truth. 17:00-21:09 - Ether 12:1-22 Help students see what it means to act in faith. Interrogate the text with questions like these: How is faith connected to hope? What would happen for better or worse if faith was seen? What do you think is meant by a trial of your faith? What do you think is meant by receiving a witness? Why is a trial of faith often necessary before receiving a witness? Do you think you’ve ever had a trial of faith? How did you exercise faith and cling to hope until you received a witness? What do you think it means to act in worthiness on an impression? Why would anyone want to try their faith? How might teenagers recognize confirming evidence from the Spirit? Avoid question burnout by focusing on questions from this list that you think will help them. Elder Scott quote. A fun activity might be, have a pair of students bring some examples of them exercising their faith, put into the Ether 12 format: “Behold, it was the faith of Samantha that helped her seek the Lord’s strength in winning the volleyball championship.” (see video or audio for more examples). 21:10-24:56 - Doctrinal Mastery and Conclusion Ether 12:6 – The bolded headings are not just titles but they are the three phases of doctrinal mastery. Maybe have students make a meme or poster or text the meaning of the scripture using only emojis. There are miracles all over these chapters. Help students identify that they are being helped by the Savior and what ways they are being helped. If you can comment in the video or on the podcast in ways that these videos are help you lead your students closer to Christ.

  • CARE - Ether 1-5
    Nov 10 2024
    0:00-0:33 - Introduction 0:44-4:37 - Ether 1 Sincere Prayer: LDS Chatbot. https://ldsbot.com/ . How is the brother of Jared’s prayer different from a chatbot prayer? How might the brother of Jared’s prayer be different from our prayers? V. 42 – There will I meet thee. 4:38-9:13 - Ether 2 We can solve our problems through prayer: as we call upon Heavenly Father in prayer and do our part to solve our problems, we can receive the Lord’s help. Invite your students to think of a scriptural story where the Savior helped someone. Juan Pablo Villar quote on God helping us if we trust Him. Ask your students to think of a time when the Savior answered your prayers. What He did for you, if it’s not too personal? How has prayer helped you receive help from God? What are some other ways you have received help from God? Maybe ask them, how does your experience with prayer help you identify attributes of Jesus Christ? Boyd K. Packer quote on Prayer. 9:14-14:22 - Ether 3 One of the best ways to bring about relevance is to get our students to come together to help someone in need. You could do this through a case study. You could ask your students to think of someone who is struggling with their faith right now. Without telling us who it is, describe their needs to us. Then use that story as a case study to think of what you could do to help them. Video example of a case study, rebuilding my faith because I felt lost watch first 2:16. What might you use to teach your friend or this young man in the video? Why might it be important for our friend to recognize his or her own dependence on the Lord? What might help your friend develop greater trust in the Lord? Also, consider how inviting students to strengthen the faith of others accomplishes the objective of seminaries and institutes of religion. 14:23-20:32 - Ether 4-5 The process of receiving revelation. Ether 4:6-13, have them look for ways to increase our power to receive revelation. You may need to give them an example of the kinds of things they are looking for. After they give answers, consider follow up questions like, why does repentance increase my power to receive revelation (if their answer was to repent)? This will help them to understand doctrine. What would happen in your life if you were to receive more revelation? When is a time that you feel like you have received revelation (please don’t share details that are too personal)? You could have them find a general conference talk that relates to the thing they found (for example, if they focused on repentance, have them look for a talk on repentance). 20:33-23:57 Doctrinal Mastery Review 24 and Conclusion Help students to discover what their questions are. What does it mean…? Why does the Lord…? What would happen if…? How do I…? Sister Browning, Seeking Answer to Spiritual Questions, GC, Oct 2024. Please do not skip Doctrinal Mastery. Alternate Idea/Object Lesson: "If the Brother of Jared's Sixteen Stones were Prophets and Apostles" - • If the Brother of Jared's Sixteen Sto...
