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.

Each day, we face trials and setbacks in our lives. From bad weather and traffic to messy homes and sick kids, difficulties seem like they won’t stop coming. We must choose to carry on and plead with our Heavenly Father for help and to see the good in our lives. He will always answer those prayers and allow us to see our progress in the path that leads back into His presence.

“Worth … the Riches of the Whole Earth”

We often keep things of value in special places: important documents kept in a secured file or safe, dinner china in a display cabinet, or treats too good to share with kids up on the top shelf. These things are kept safe and out of easy reach for good reasons, but there are other things of value we need to make sure are always available to us. Our scriptures are one of these things.

“The Lord Requireth the Heart and a Willing Mind”

We all make mistakes as parents. Sometimes our attention is wrongly distracted from a child’s needs, or perhaps we raised our voice in anger when we should have been calm. Do we seek forgiveness from both the Lord and our children when we do these things? Do we sincerely forgive our children when they err? As the Savior Jesus Christ plainly explains in Doctrine and Covenants 64, forgiveness is a crucial component of achieving peace in the home.
