We had a combined Teaching No Greater Call lesson today with lesson 23 and 24 - reverence and helping those who become disruptive. The two topics go hand in hand. We had a lot of great discussion and ideas today about how to help our children and class members feel more reverent in attitude and behavior. HERE and HERE are the links to the lessons on lds.org.
Intro - (have prelude music playing)
- What is reverence? Read quotes #1-4 and write main ideas on board.
- Listen to Reverence is Love and talk about it. What does that mean "reverence is love"?
- What's the difference between reverent behavior and a reverent attitude? (“Serve God Acceptably with Reverence and Godly Fear” L. Tom Perry)
Teaching Reverent Conduct
- What are some ways that we can teach/encourage others to be reverent? What are some things we can do as teachers and parents? (write on board) For kids? For adults?
- What has helped you as a family or as a teacher teach your children about reverence?
- How can we instill a sense of reverence in our classes?
Disruption
- Read story in the manual - what are some ways that we can help those become disruptive in our lessons?
- Read quote from Pres Hinckley (manual) - the discipline of love
- Read D&C 121:41-44 - reproving with sharpness, then show increased love. Manual has definitions of “betimes” and “sharpness”
