. . . UNITY IN GATHERING . . .
When we gather together, we should seek to edify one another.
-
Consider using Paul’s teachings in 1 Corinthians 14 to remind class members that we can all edify—or support and uplift—each other at church. A simple way to review this chapter might be to write a question on the board, such as What should be our goal when we gather together? Invite class members to search for possible answers in 1 Corinthians 14. Other ideas could be found in Moroni 6:4–5 and Doctrine and Covenants 50:17–23. As class members share what they find, consider asking them how they feel your class is doing at accomplishing these goals. They could also share experiences in which they felt edified by something a class member shared.

. . . RESURRECTION POSSIBLE . . .
Because Jesus Christ was resurrected, we will all be resurrected.
-
How can you use Paul’s testimony in 1 Corinthians 15 to strengthen your class members’ testimonies of the Resurrection? One way could be to divide the class into two groups and ask one group to look in 1 Corinthians 15 for the consequences we would face if Jesus Christ had not been resurrected. The other group could look for the blessings we receive because of His Resurrection. Each group could then write on the board what they learned. What could they add to their lists after reading the statement by Elder D. Todd Christofferson in “Additional Resources”? To help class members feel the Spirit during this discussion, consider displaying a picture of the resurrected Savior (see this week’s outline in Come, Follow Me—For Individuals and Families) or playing or singing a hymn about the Resurrection.
-
Because Paul was responding to people who did not believe in resurrection, your class might benefit from role-playing a similar situation. For example, how might they strengthen a loved one’s faith in the Resurrection? What do we find in 1 Corinthians 15 that would help us explain the need for and the evidence of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ? What other scriptures could we use? (See, for example, Luke 24:1–12, 36–46; Alma 11:42–45.)
