Come Follow Me Lessons & Activities for Kids Lesson 33 | August 12-18 | Alma 43-52

It’s not uncommon to see the “war chapters” of the Book of Mormon as a lot of verses filled with battles and lacking spiritual significance. However, some of the strongest examples of faith and belief in Jesus Christ in the scriptures come from these ten chapters. Nowhere else is the consequence of wickedness and the fate of the righteous more apparent than in Alma 43-52. 

If we look carefully, we can see similarities between Captain Moroni and people we respect in our own lives. Characteristics of faith in God, trust in others, compassion for the meek, and standing up for the rights of everyone are essential to becoming a true follower of Jesus Christ. These traits were essential for surviving spiritually in this violent part of Nephite history and are exactly what is needed for surviving spiritually today. For if all of us were more like Moroni, “the devil would never have power over the hearts of the children of men” (Alma 48:17).

Toddler Bundle Lessons & Activities​

For kids ages 1-4 at home and in nursery or sunbeams.

This week, we’ll be sharing the gospel with your little ones using the activity book in the Elementary Bundle. Be sure to use the activity book for younger children (Level 1, Recommended for ages 3-6). Print your activity book pages, then cut all of them in half, except the cover. You will fold the cover in half to help keep the pages together. Put all your pages in order inside the cover and then staple along the left-hand edge. Make one book for each of your children.

We recommend spreading your time between the activity pages over the week instead of trying to do them all at one time. This will help your toddler not get burned out and give them something fun to look forward to each day! You will have fun coloring, designing armor, counting with dot-to-dots, racing, drawing and more! Read or summarize the chapters for the day and then assist your child in completing the corresponding pages in their activity book.

The toddler bundle includes a lesson plan and three activities every week. Grab the toddler bundle in our subscription.

“I Am with the Faithful Always”

It’s easy to wish the Lord would show us everything we need to do to be happy and successful. However, that’s not His way. Instead, we are to act under His guidance and do the things we feel would bring to pass righteousness. As He tells the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 62, do that “as seemeth you good, it mattereth not unto me; only be faithful.”

“Anxiously Engaged in a Good Cause”

We all want to arrive at our own “promised land” or “Zion” sooner rather than later. However, we cannot forget that the process of getting there is just as important as the destination itself. As we follow Jesus Christ and keep His commandments, we are changed to become more like the Savior. The trials that accompany this period of growth are essential the eternal reward of being with our families forever, for “after much tribulation come the blessings (DC 58:4).”

“A Faithful, a Just, and a Wise Steward”

In a world that revolves around money, it can be stressful to know how we can support our families and make the most of the resources we obtain. We should feel grateful to know that in the Lord’s Church, Jesus Christ provides direction on how temporal resources can be used to further His work. He instructs the saints in Doctrine and Covenants 51 to collect money, food, and clothing to help provide for each other. We also read of the commandment to build a bishop’s storehouse.
