Richard and I decided to have the kids help teach Family Home Evening last night. We split into two groups and practiced telling a stories from the scriptures. Then we met back together to present our work and talk about applications.
Mark and Paige told the story of Joseph, who was sold into Egypt. Then we talked about things we can learn from the story. Here are some of the responses:
- You should be nice to your brothers (and sister).
- It’s a good idea to have some food storage.
- Even though bad things happen to good people sometimes, Heavenly Father still loves them and has a plan.
- We should forgive others.
Timothy told the beginning of the story of Lehi and his family who left Jerusalem.
Daniel finished the story of Nephi getting the brass plates. When we talked about what we could learn from the story, Timothy summarized, “You should obey Heavenly Father and He will help you to do it.” Daniel said, “If Heavenly Father asks you to do something, He will provide a way for you to do it.”
Yes!
