Invite Sharing

For the first few minutes of class, invite class members to share insights and experiences they had over the past week as they studied the scriptures as individuals and families and applied what they learned. You could also review what your class discussed in last week’s Sunday School lesson and ask how it has influenced their lives.

Teach the Doctrine

You and your class members should focus on doctrine—the eternal truths of the gospel—found in the assigned scripture passages. As you teach doctrine from the scriptures, what verses, quotations, experiences, questions, and additional resources might you share? How might you use these resources to help class members ponder gospel principles? How can you encourage class members to record and act upon the thoughts and impressions they receive?

Encourage Learning at Home

At the end of the lesson, take a moment to preview next week’s discussion. Consider how to inspire class members to continue learning from the Old Testament at home, both individually and with their families.
