Making the Scriptures Real for our Children

The commandment the Lord gave to Adam also applies to us: “Teach it unto your children, that all men, everywhere, must repent, or they can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God” (Moses 6:57). The Lord continued in similar words, “I give unto you a commandment, to teach these things freely unto your children” (Moses 6:58).

As adults who care about children, we want to help them learn to love the scriptures. One way we can do this is to make the scriptures feel real to them. Children will be excited and willing to set goals to study the Old Testament if we teach them in a way that they feel the scriptures are relevant to their lives (see 1 Nephi 19:23).

There are several ways we can help our children feel the reality and impact of the scriptures.
