Teaching in the Savior’s way — Missionary Training Center
Teaching in the Savior’s way:
1/ Welcome and prayer
2/ Prepare to Learn
. • Study, ponder, pray
. • Make assignments ahead of time (scripture, a question, a story, an experience)
. • Prepare a handout
. • Focus on doctrine
3/ Interact to Edify
. • You are a facilitator, not a lecturer. Give a voice to ALL in your class
. • Testimonies borne are testimonies strengthened
. • Prepare open-ended questions, questions that stimulate thought
. • Use scriptures, PMG, experiences, testimony
. • Involve, engage, facilitate
. • Have class members work in groups and give reports
4/ Invite to Act
. • DO! Change! Improve! Commit!
. • Testify, let them receive personal revelation
5/ Examples of how the Savior actually taught:
. • Matthew 16 — Whom do men say that I am? Whom do ye say that I am?
. • The adultress and how He ‘invited’ her to change
. • Luke 13 — the bent-over woman in the synagogue
. • 3 Nephi — over 2000 felt the wounds in His hands and feet, one-by-one
