This lesson covers a lot of varying topics. Primary teachers, carefully select two or three to cover during class. Sunday School teachers, you will not be able to give this lesson the attention it deserves, as this lesson is combined with THREE others due to a fifth Sunday and General Conference. Prayerfully consider which material from this and the next three lessons will be of most value to your students. If you choose to do the activity where you "write on strips of paper several gospel truths and several false, worldly ideas or practices," be careful that you don't accidentally add in your own personal ideas of what is a worldly practice. Use the suggestion in the manual to select false, worldly ideas from General Conference addresses to avoid any difficulty.
