Summer can be the perfect time to add an element of fun to your teaching. I love this idea for a family activity in this week's More Ideas pages.

This week we will be reading about the thrilling contest between Elijah and the false prophets of Baal. You can bring this story to life for your children by having a bonfire and reading this gripping story. 850 false priests gathered against one lone prophet of the true God of Israel, and each petitioned their god for fire to burn the bull on the alter. It's a story that shows that true power comes only from the Lord and is just as applicable to the false gods today as it was in Elijah's day.

Teens might also benefit from studying Elder Homer's talk from April 2019 about being able to recognize the voice of the Lord. You could even give them this section of the study pages to read in advance and talk about it around the fire. There's just something about watching the flames ascend that brings out a spirit of contemplation in all of us.

And what's a fire without toasting something good to eat? Go traditional with s'mores or try this fun idea from the kit to wind refrigerated cinnamon rolls onto a stick and roast them.

Not every gospel discussion needs a fire and cinnamon rolls, but every now and again it's important to create lasting memories with your children and reach them in ways that you otherwise might not.

And that's got me thinking, what are some of the most memorable ways you have been taught the gospel?

If you're a subscriber then you'll know all about

If you're a subscriber then you'll know all about the fabulous Drawn In videos from David Bowman. They're a free bonus that you get each week and we know so many of you use and love them!

I like to use them as a review at the end of the week or even for my kids to watch over breakfast. Even my husband loves a bit of Drawn In (maybe it's the 80s rock music that he uses!).

Here are a couple more ways to use the videos to get even more from them:

1. Pause the video at any point you choose and have your children draw the same picture as David Bowman (the artist) is drawing.

2. Tell your children that you are going to play a trivia game after the video and give everyone four, 3x5 cards and tell them to write four trivia questions as they watch the video.

Then after the video, gather everyone’s cards and stack them together and get a dice.

Divide into two teams and take turns drawing a card from the pile and asking each other a trivia question. If they get the answer right, they get to roll the dice and that is how many points they get for that question. The team with the most points at the end wins.

How do you use the Drawn In videos in your house? Snuggled around an iPad or cast to the TV? At the beginning of the week or the end of the week?

"The Lord does notice us, and he watches over us.

"The Lord does notice us, and he watches over us. But it is usually through another person that he meets our needs. Therefore, it is vital that we serve each other. ...

"Unless the way we live draws us closer to our Heavenly Father and to our fellowmen, there will be an enormous emptiness in our lives."

President Spencer W. Kimball
New Era Magazine, March 1981

How has the Lord met your needs through another person?
