In Mosiah chapters 11-17 we learn about Abinadi. Before the lesson starts cut out the introduction puzzle and tape it over the picture for this week in the Come Follow Me for Individuals and Families Manual (page 73). To begin the lesson ask one person to remove a piece and try to guess what we will be learning about. Continue with different members of the family removing a piece until the picture has been uncovered.
Use the scripture role play activity to help everyone learn the story of Abinadi. It may be helpful to let everyone practice their reading parts before acting it out.
After the role play have each member of the family say something they learned about the story. Then complete the 10 commandment matching activity.
Some of the bonus lessons include, scripture marking guides, coloring page, and an activity to help children understand how Jesus is both the Father and the Son. Read your lesson plan summary page for more bonus ideas as well as more details on each activity.

Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers did not come after they had paid restitution or offered an apology. He forgave them the moment he realized they had changed from their jealous ways when they offered themselves in place of Benjamin for punishment. How overwhelming it must have been for Joseph to see such love amongst his brothers. His forgiveness came with no strings attached: “be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves” (Genesis 45:5).
In every moment of Joseph’s story, God was with him. From his brothers’ betrayal and serving Potiphar, to a friend of Pharaoh and the savior of his family, at no time was Joseph forgotten by God. Through the good and the bad, he trusted that God knew who he was and had faith that everything would be all right.
Abraham’s posterity was promised many blessings of eternal significance, but that didn’t mean everything would be perfect. His grandsons, Jacob and Esau, fought over who should inherit their father’s birthright. Relatives lied to and tricked each other. The prophet’s very own family was dysfunctional, yet that didn’t stop those who were righteous from striving to follow Jesus Christ.
