LDS Young Women Easter Lesson

I was responsible for teaching the Easter lesson to the Young Women in our ward on Easter Sunday. I wanted the girls to really understand the story, and doing it through scripture was important to me. I spent some time reading all the gospels, trying my best to understand all the overlapping details of the story. I then sorted the story out in to three parts, and found scriptures that best illustrated the flow of the story.

I can't say for sure if the girls got anything out of it — I sure hope they did — but I did. I learned a lot about the Savior, and am grateful for the experience.

Hopefully, someone else can get something out of it, too.

This is what I came up with:

Betrayal
·      Passover — Mat. 26:1-5
·      Christ warns of betrayals — Luke 22:21
·      Sacrament — Mark 14:22-25
·      Garden of Gethsemane — Luke 22:39-46
·      Judas’ betrayal — Mat. 26:14-16
·      Betrayal — Luke 22:47-48
·      Interrogation — Luke 22:66-71


Crucifixion
·      Passover — Mark 15:6-15
·      Mocking — Mark 15: 17-20; Luke 23:35-39
·      Crucifixion/signs — Mark 15:22-33
·      Yields up ghost/feels forsaken — Mark 15:34-37; Luke 23:46
·      Christ’s perfection — Luke 23:34; Luke 23:39-43
·      Temple rent — Mark 15:38
·      Burial — Mark 15:43-47

Resurrection
·      Women see angel — Luke 24:1-10
·      Mary Magdalene see Christ/witness to disciples — John 20:18
·      Disciples unbelieving — John 20:24-29
·      Christ blesses sacrament — Luke 24:30
·      Christ commands disciples to work — Mat. 28:19-20; Luke 24:46-48
·      Christ “taken up” — Mark 16:19

Always,
