Be Thou an Example of the Believers

Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids

Week 45 | October 28 - November 3

The past few lessons have been epistles from Paul to all of the saints. This week we are reading in 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus, and Philemon and get to study the words of Paul to individuals who were leaders of the church. Read the introductory paragraph on page 166 in the manual to expound on this. 

Begin the lesson by talking about who the leader of your ward is. We have provided a fun charades game to play to learn more about the roles of the Bishop. The kids can also do the Bishop coloring page and draw in the face to look like their Bishop.

As a family read 1 Timothy 4:10-16. Use the example scramble to help teach the importance of being a good example.

We recommend listening to the audio of 2 Timothy chapter 3 on the Gospel Library app. Discuss as a family what you learn from these scriptures. Use the Halloween bag and treats activity to talk about the wickness that Paul prophesied about and how we can “be an example of the believers.” Put the candy in the corresponding bag. Be sure to follow the directions on how to glue and cut the bags so the candy can go inside.

A couple of the bonus ideas this week includes “The scriptures will help me learn the truth” page to help teach about the importance of scriptures and a Mystery Scripture Story marking guide for an additional way to study 2 Timothy chapter 3.

“Be Strong and of a Good Courage”

Most of the Israelites heading into the Promised Land had been born in the wilderness. Few remembered the treacherous journey across the bottom of the Red Sea, yet all would experience the miracle again as they crossed the Jordan River on dry ground. This time, however, it was not a crowd of fleeing former slaves who worshipped golden calves. It was the camp of Israel, a covenant-making people who had proven their faithfulness to the Lord.

“Beware Lest Thou Forget the Lord”

Moses taught that faith is best nurtured through the natural rhythms of family life rather than through formal lessons alone. He commanded parents: “Thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way” (Deuteronomy 6:7). Integrating gospel conversations into daily activities helps our children guard against “forgetting the Lord” during times of ease and prosperity.

“Rebel Not Ye against the Lord, Neither Fear”

Moses did not have an easy time being the Israelite’s prophet. From constant squabbles amongst the people to outright apostasy against the Lord, there was plenty of drama he had to deal with. As a prophet, Moses knew what the Israelites could be if they stayed faithful. He told Joshua it would be less of a struggle if everyone could see what the Lord had shown him: “would God that all the Lord’s people were prophets, and that the Lord would put his spirit upon them!” (Numbers 11:29).
