This week we get to talk about the second coming! We recommend reading the bible verses in the manual on page 163 as you learn together. We have provided a poster to help teach and facilitate a family discussion. You can even use the black and white version as a coloring page to keep their hands busy while you read the verses. Remember hands on = minds on. Display the poster in your home all week as a reminder of what you have learned.
Use the suitcase and printables to discuss how we can prepare for the second coming each day. You could even pack a real suit case to add more fun!

Do the house of God puzzle to talk about how we can stand firm in our faith in the last days. See your summary sheet for another fun idea about the wise man and the foolish man and building your foundation on a rock.
Use the song chart to sing the song “I Want To Live The Gospel.”
One of our bonus ideas this week is to read 1 Thessalonians 3:13 and use the heart page to write down and share your thoughts. It can also be used as a coloring page for young children.

Though we have reached the end of the Doctrine and Covenants, the work of the Restoration is still ongoing: “We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God” (Articles of Faith 1:9). Prophets still reveal the will of God. The Church is still growing to fill the Earth.
“What happens after we die?” This is a question commonly asked by all of God’s children. Because of continuing revelation through living prophets, we know! Doctrine and Covenants Sections 137 and 138 reveal that our loved ones who have died go to a place of rest if they were faithful in their testimony of Christ, where they are then prepared to teach the gospel in the spirit world. Those who died who were not faithful are given the opportunity to learn about Jesus Christ and accept ordinances performed by the living: “and thus was the gospel preached to the dead” (D&C 138:30).
Doctrine and Covenants Section 135 could be viewed as the conclusion of the entire Doctrine and Covenants scriptures, were it not for additional revelation given to the saints. This section witnesses the divinity of the Prophet Joseph’s calling. It declares Joseph’s work to be of God and that it will never fail. It also testifies that those who read the Doctrine and Covenants, as well as the Book of Mormon, “will be reminded that the Book of Mormon, and this book of Doctrine and Covenants of the church, cost the best blood of the nineteenth century to bring them forth” (D&C 135:6).
