Family Home Evening Ideas

“How to Achieve Eternal Goals,” page 60, and “Abby’s Top-10 List,” page 76: With the beginning of a new year, you and your family might be thinking about certain goals you hope to achieve individually and as a family. Consider reading Sister Rosemary M. Wixom’s article about a young woman’s top-10 goals in life, and invite your children to come up with their own list of goals. Your older children might also benefit from a discussion of Elder Robert D. Hales’s article about eternal goals and the importance of making plans to achieve those goals. Encourage family members to write down their goals and hang them in a prominent place in your home.

“New Testament Scripture Challenge,” page 66: Consider starting the New Testament reading challenge as a family. You could begin by asking each family member to share his or her favorite story from the life of Jesus Christ. Then, as a family, visit gospelart.lds.org or scripturestories.lds.org to find videos and artwork that go with your reading schedule. Or consider acting out scenes from the New Testament as you read along.
