The Old Testament contains the earliest records of the prophets. Through their words, we learn of Jesus Christ’s role in creating the world and His purpose in doing so. We discover how faith in Christ, obedience, sacrifice, and love help us endure all things.
We can prepare our children to make covenants with God at baptism and in the temple through family study of the Old Testament. As we read of God’s covenant people and their relationship with Jehovah (Jesus Christ), we can help our children to know that He will always be there to lead and guide them through life’s difficulties and inevitably back into the presence of our Father in Heaven.

Hands-On Activity
Before starting your lesson, wrap a Bible like a gift. Begin your lesson by gathering your children and showing them the gift. Say, “God has given us a gift that we can use every day, and I have it here. Before we open it, everyone gets to guess what this gift is.” Allow your children to guess and praise each effort. Then, invite them to open the gift together and reveal what’s inside—it’s the Bible! Explain that this is a book of scriptures that Heavenly Father has given us. See the lesson for additional details.

The Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ renewed the truth that Christ was born to save all mankind. Through His mortal ministry, His suffering in Gethsemane and on the cross, His ministry in the Spirit World, and His resurrection, He offers healing to all our sorrows and pains. What greater gift could we be given than that?
Every family comes with their own set of trials and blessings. Parents and children alike have both memorable times together, as well as times in which forgiveness is needed to move forward in love and harmony. As the Proclamation teaches, Jesus Christ is the key to strengthening bonds and repairing relationships that break: “Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ.” Ultimately, all we do as a family in righteousness prepares us to live with God, exalted, as a family in heaven.
