During a tender moment of grief, Jesus comforted His friend Martha by sharing a simple testimony of an eternal truth: "Thy brother shall rise again"
. This sincere witness immediately prompted Martha to share her own powerful testimony
. This training video helps Early Morning Seminary teachers understand how sharing simple, heartfelt witnesses can transform their classrooms and invite students to testify of truth.
In this video, you will learn how to:
Keep It Simple: Understand that a testimony "doesn’t need to be eloquent or lengthy" and doesn't even need to begin with the phrase "I’d like to bear my testimony".
Be Direct and Heartfelt: Learn the power of simply sharing "what you know by the power of the Holy Ghost," ensuring your witness of the Savior is direct and authentic.
Empower the Learner: Recognize that often, "the most powerful witness is borne not by the teacher but by a fellow learner," and learn to encourage students to share their own testimonies.
Invite the Spirit: Use tools like "sacred music and pictures" to invite the Spirit, and provide opportunities for students to "quietly ponder what the Spirit is teaching them".
Live the Truth: Remember the foundational principle to "live the truths you are teaching so that you can bear witness of them".
