Assignment:

Please write a 3-5 paragraph summary of what you learned from the devotional to send to me by Tuesday Jan. 21

Consider the following questions as you watch the devotional and organize your summary:

·         What is the relationship between Christ’s character and his Doctrine? (the Doctrine of Christ)

·         What can I do to ensure that my faith is centered on the Savior’s character and atonement?

·         Why does increasing my understanding of the Character of Christ help to reduce the disparity between what I know and what I do?

·         What was the main point the Holy Ghost taught you?

·         What does Elder Bednar understand that allows him to teach with spiritual power?

·         Your missionaries have the opportunity to see this each Sunday.  How will you prepare them for this? How will use follow up and use this in class after they have seen it?

Invitation:

What can and should I do in my life to turn away from selfishness and toward Christ-like compassion, service, desires and intent? – Set a goal to change your character to be more like HIS.

Good luck!  Have fun!  Let me know if you have any questions!
