• During fundamental DOC helping missionaries recognize their own need for Christ/also investigator’s needs
• Using BOM reads to personally understand Jesus as an individual; mortal and all
• Always reference the Doctrine of Christ in terms of the atonement
• Application portion- How is this going to help us be more like Christ or how can Christ help us accomplish this?
• Setting up practices where they can teach about Christ using the restoration without blowing their minds
• Teaching the PST Cycle as a means to use the atonement through the Doctrine of Christ
• Help missionaries turn to and Relate with the savior as they adjust to missionary life during the stress lesson.
• Fundamental overview, mentally thinking “How is this helping me and the missionaries to become more like the Savior?” Then mamboing giving the missionaries and yourself to apply the fundamental… i.e. Time for prayer, time to think about the sacrament, etc.
• MTC overview use all activities to help strengthen faith/love for Christ
• Answer Missionaries’ questions using examples of the savior rom the scriptures
• Pre-set the opening hymn for conversion (ex. “as we sing ‘I Believe in Christ’ analyze what you believe. Are you truly singing a prayer unto Heavenly Father?)
• Revelation through the BOM- Practice using the BOM to help someone understand who Christ is
• Personal testimony of and conversion to him
• When discerning or learning about an investigator, ask always “how can the atonement help this person?” “what does christ see in this person?"
• When helping a struggling missionary help them turn to the savor by reading His teaching from the scriptures… looking for personal revelation

How has your reading of these scriptures impacted how you’ve talked about Christ during this practice?

• Christ is driven into our heads but the Holy Ghost is the only one who can drive him into out hearts. With this Christ had been coming more and more into my heart.
• the more you help them conceptualize the atonement you will see them be more motivated

Invitation: Keep the resurrection going…
