This is our favorite notebook to use as we listen to conference.  It has a place for notes, for promptings, and for application.  We love the weekly prep for before conference weekend and also the section at the end that helps you make the most recent General Conference talks part of your life moving forward.  We accidentally sold out Rio’s supply in our first video about this, but she is doing a reprint…so if you are interested, order right away ;)
 
We are so excited about these journals.  Here is the link!!

This Week's Printable
 
What would you learn if you were to shadow the Savior for an entire day?  Read Matthew 9 and find out.  Make a list of each of the detours you discover.
 
Teaching Tips for Kids
Talk about compassion.  What does it mean?  What does it look like?  Ask your kids if there is someone in your neighborhood who needs compassion.  Bake a cake, send flowers, deliver cookies.  Find a way to take a compassionate detour in their behalf this week.
 
Teaching Tips for teens
Spend some time reading through Matthew 9 and point out each of the detours.  Ask your teens how many of those stops they think were on a to do list or if they were spontaneous.  Invite them to keep their eyes open for their own compassionate detour this week.
 
Teaching tips for individuals and couples
Try scheduling empty time for compassionate detours every day this week.  Ask the Lord to help you be mindful of who might need your love each day.  Write down your experiences.
 
 
Don't Miss This in the New Testament
Come Follow Me 2023 Study Tools
Maybe you know this about us by now, but we are both visual, hands on learners.  Because of that, we are always trying to discover study tools that will help bring the scriptures to life in your home.  We will be using several different study tools this year, here is what we love most about each of them:

Videos:
For the New Testament we will be recording all new hour long vides, but this year they will be broken into ten minute segments in case you want to watch them for ten minutes every weekday, or you can watch them all at once.  These videos are totally free and can be found on YouTube or on our APP.

Journal:
The journals for the next four years have been totally redesigned with a theme in mind.  You will find questions to ponder daily that can be used for teaching or family discussions.  There are workbook pages based off of our most favorite part of each lesson that week.  You can also use these workbook pages for lessons or discussion.  There will also be a space for recording one name of Jesus Christ each week.

Devotional Book:
Perfect for a 5-10 minute lesson, these books can be used as a devotional every day.  This book is designed for personal study or family study.  We love to use ours around the dinner or breakfast table.

Word a Week Posters:
Perfect for a three minute study, these posters include one word and one verse a week for pondering.  Hang them somewhere in your home where they will be a daily reminder of Come, Follow Me.  This year we will be studying one name of Jesus Christ found in that week’s lesson.  By the end of the year we will have come up with 52 names.

Tip Ins:
These are small papers that can be glued right in your scriptures with tips and truths that will help to improve your study.

Stickers:
Use these colorful stickers in the margins of your Scriptures or in your Don’t Miss This Daily study journal.

Hopefully these tools will make your scripture study something you look forward to!
