The Nephites Live after the Manner of Happiness” (3:01)

Using This Video

You could show this video when you arrive at the part of the lesson that says:

“Write 2 Nephi 5:6, 10–18, 26–27 on the board. Divide students into groups of two or three and invite them to act on Elder Jensen’s invitation by reading these verses together and looking for “elements of a truly happy society and life.” You may want to invite them to consider marking elements or actions that contributed to the Nephites’ happiness. After a few minutes, invite a few students to write their findings on the board.”

Show the video first, inviting students to look for elements of a truly happy society and life. Once students have written their findings on the board, encourage them to review the verses listed and mark the related phrases as they find them in their scriptures. Then continue with the written lesson.
