Sunday School Lesson Preparation

Teaching Sunday School in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is one of the most meaningful callings a member can receive - and one of the most time-consuming to prepare well. A great Sunday School lesson is not a lecture. It is a guided conversation that helps class members discover truth for themselves. LDS Sunday School helps teachers build a complete lesson outline with discussion questions, historical context, and application in minutes.

Key Principles

• ✓The best Sunday School lessons are discussions, not presentations - ask more than you tell
• ✓Start with a question that creates genuine curiosity before you open the scriptures
• ✓Historical context makes the passage come alive - a sentence or two is enough
• ✓Testimony moments happen when class members make connections themselves
• ✓End with an invitation - something specific to do or think about before next week
