Stories From The Old Testament For The Primary Department Of The Sunday School Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Stories From the Old Testament for the Primary Department of the Sunday School We are sending these Stories from the Old Testa ment to the teachers of the primary classes of our Sunday Schools with the earnest hope and sincere prayer that the stories will assist the teachers in presenting to the children under their care, lessons that will so impress the children as to broaden and strengthen their charac ters, increase their faith, and make Latter-day Saints of them. Never fail to read and prayerfully study the Bible text itself, that you may be able to live the experience covered by the story, recognize the value of the truth it portrays, make the message your own, and, from the abundance of your love for the truth, for our Heavenly Father, and for the children, give it to the little ones in such a way as to lead them to know, to feel, and to live its truth. Remember always that the story is but a means, and not an end - a means to reach and enrich their souls-not merely their intellects. Tell it to them in your own way - the way best caleu lated to appeal to the hearts of the children of your class. May the Father give you to feel that you have painted upon the living canvas of the soul the lessons of God and truth and immortality, that shall resist the decaying hand of time, and pass on to eternity.
