The Chief Corner Stone | Scripture Story Sketch Notes | Printable PDF

A hand-drawn, doodle-style study of Ephesians 2, built around Paul’s words: “Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone” (Ephesians 2:20).

Follow a numbered map from outside the temple wall to a finished temple, then look closer at the details. Context, Greek words and modern prophets help, while the focus stays on the Savior, the sure foundation.

What's Inside

• Cover with a numbered map and a contents list
• The story, plainly: four scenes, “Look to Him” notes, the hard King James words explained, and a draw-and-write page
• Look closer: nine cards on the cornerstone, the wall, the key, the foundation, the plumb line, the house, the living stones, the temple and the dove
• Where are you? On the outside, cracks in the foundation, carrying stones, or at home, with check-ins
• Built on Him: finish each line, then plan how you will build on Christ
• Their world, their words: the temple partition, cornerstones, and two Greek words
• Look to Him: what prophets have taught about the cornerstone, with Isaiah and Helaman
• Seek Him today: a question to ask in prayer, a seven-day tracker, talk-about questions and verses to hold
• Go deeper: summaries and links for adult and deeper study
• Sources: every quotation and gloss cited with links (scripture first, then Church sources, then labeled outside sources)

Perfect For

• Personal and family Come, Follow Me study of Ephesians, lessons on belonging and the Church’s foundation, and family home evening any year
• Family home evening
• Primary, Sunday School, youth and seminary teachers
• Adults who want a deeper, well-sourced study
