Teaching God's ChildrenOne of the humbling privileges of discipleship is the honor of working beside the Master of the Vineyard. Those who have come unto Jesus Christ through baptism come to understand that they are of the House of Israel with the sacred assignment of gathering scattered Israel. Each of us get to represent God and teach His children about Him--what an astounding opportunity!The Book of Mormon is the tool the Lord has provided in the final dispensation to aid us in fulfilling our duties as missionaries. In addition to being something that people can read and pray about to gain a testimony and understanding of the restoration of the gospel in the latter days, the Book of Mormon also contains wonderful case studies of unbelievably powerful missionaries. As we study Nephi, Jacob, Alma, Amulek, Ammon, and many others, we can see character traits they possessed, and skills they used, to bring people to Christ. This lesson will allow you to identify and organize insights about effective missionary work as taught in the Book of Mormon.InstructionsView Scripture Study Skills - ListsLinks to an external site.
