A Creative Study of Come, Follow Me

Book of Mormon [HELAMAN 1-6] Insights

“The Rock of Our Redeemer”

August 26 - September 1, 2024

WEEK 35: SUMMARY

=================

Lesson Summary:

The book of Helaman is a build-up to the coming of Jesus Christ in the Book of Mormon. Our master editor, Mormon, sets the stage by helping us understand the depths of the darkness brought on by the Coriantumr, Kishkumen, and the Gadianton Robbers. That dark backdrop will make the bright bursts of light we find in the stories of Moronihah, Helaman, Nephi, Lehi, Aminadab and others. The contrast will catch your heart and help you feel more equipped to conquer the darkness of our day.


Questions to Consider:

Helaman 3:30 | What do you think it means to sit with the holy fathers and “go no more out”?

Helaman 5:8 | What do you think a heavenly treasure is? Is it relationships, a rate of progression, a certainty of some kind? What else could we possibly “lay-up” for ourselves?

Helaman 6:36-38 | The Lamanites converted or removed the Gadianton Robbers from the lands but the Nephites “build them up and support them” until most “come down to believe in their works and partake of their spoils.” Do you see similar trends in our day? What does ripening for destruction look like in our day? Could teaching truth reverse that trend?

5: BOM [1 NEPHI 16-22] INSIGHTS NOTES

“I Will Prepare the Way before You”

January 29 – February 4

Insights Lesson Summary:

This week we’ll see the second half of the journey to the Promised Land. We’ll follow Lehi & Ishmael’s families as they wind their way through the wilderness towards Bountiful. We’ll see how they struggle with a broken bow, a boat building project, and the struggles that come when a family is divided. The last few chapters are Nephi’s witness of the Savior and his reminder to study the words of previous prophets like Isaiah, Zenos, and Lehi.

Questions to Consider from Week 5

  • 1 Nephi 16:12 | Laman and Lemuel seem to keep one foot planted in Jerusalem while they wander in the wilderness. What pain do they experience by neglecting to live up to the light they’ve been given.
  • 1 Nephi 17:18 | Is it possible that Nephi broke his bow on purpose? Could he, like Elijah, have hoped a famine would help his family remember God? If so, what else can you learn from the story?
  • 1 Nephi 17:23-29 | Lehi repents of his murmuring and then the family sees new writing on the Liahona. Nephi speaks about the Lord using “small means” to accomplish “great things”. What do you think he’s referring to?
  • 1 Nephi 19:12 | One of my favorite titles for Jesus Christ is “The God of Nature”. What does that title teach us? How is it more vivid in these chapters about animals, storms, timbers, and tides?
  • 1 Nephi 22:17 | Isaiah’s writings promise the the righteous need not fear the last days. 1 John 4:18 teaches that perfect love casteth out fear. Do you see a connection between these verses? How will perfect love play a role in the last days?

“They Were Steadfast and Immovable”

June 17 – June 23 2024

WEEK 26: SUMMARY

=================

Lesson Summary:


Alma and Amulek refuse to give up on the people of Ammonihah. This week, Alma will teach us about Melchizedek and his ability to use the power of the Priesthood to change a sin-sick city. Alma’s message resonates with some, but others turn violently against the truth. They’ll execute women and children in front of Alma and Amulek, almost daring them to intervene. Later, they’ll strip these mighty men of God of everything possible but Alma and Amulek stand strong. After a harrowing time in prison, they plead for help from the Lord and receive deliverance. Amazingly, they’ll use that freedom to lift the pains of Zeezrom and help restore the Nephites to peace and truth. It’s a beautiful week of study.


Questions to Consider:


Alma 14:8 | Why is the war tactic of targeting women so effective at long-term destruction? Is the opposite true? If we care for mothers, can we change the world? Could that be what motivates our Relief Society leaders today?


Alma 15:18 | What does “strengthening him in the Lord” mean? Are there important parallels between this story and the parable of the Good Samaritan or any of the miracles of Jesus from the New Testament?


Alma 16:4-8 | When have you seen other stories like this in scripture? Does this still happen today? How do leaders turn to the prophet today for economic, military, or political guidance?
