Lesson 164 · Doctrinal Mastery: Finding Answers to My Questions

Examining Gospel Concepts and Questions with an Eternal Perspective

Help students examine concepts and questions with an eternal perspective.

Teach from the manual first

The lesson comes from the Church’s seminary manual

Use the official lesson as written. These activities take a few minutes to open or review class, and the send-home card helps families reinforce what was taught.

Because the Lord has all wisdom and comprehends all things, His perspective is always higher than our limited view.

See it the way the Lord sees it

Send this to your class chat after the lesson. Students and parents can open the story and resources at home, alone or with family.

“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”Isaiah 55:9

Ask: What is a question you’re carrying that you could reframe with the Lord’s eternal perspective?

Try: Try the three steps at home: write the assumption, a truth that corrects it, and your reframed question.
