Living the gospel
is not always easy. We need each other.
So we come to church on
Sunday to support, encourage, and inspire each other in
our efforts as fellow gospel learners. This is the kind of experience
that Come, Follow Me is designed to create
for youth and adults. Teachers, your role begins
as it does for all of us: as a learner, at home,
in your personal study of the scriptures. Use Come, Follow Me--For
Individuals and Families to gain doctrinal insights and
deeper gospel understanding. Remember, preparation to teach
is not just about creating a lesson plan--it is about
being a diligent gospel learner and living the gospel
in our own lives. Come, Follow Me--For Sunday
School is the teacher's manual or guide. Here you will find suggested
activities and questions that invite class
members to share what they are
experiencing at home and to develop rich
doctrinal discussions. Each week, you'll want to
encourage class members to experience for themselves
the power of the word of God in their own lives. These two resources
complement each other and strengthen individual
and family gospel learning. We should all seek to learn from
the scriptures for ourselves and record the spiritual
impressions we receive. Then when we gather
in Sunday School, we share with each other the
doctrine we are learning.
