Gospel Learning in the Home

I'm going to try and update from time to time, what we do in our home to teach the gospel.

We are definitely not experts.

But, I always love to get ideas from others so, in a way, this is a way for me to pay it forward.


Last night for our family home evening, we played Conference Jeopardy: Parents vs. Kids.

I have 5 kids still at home participating in FHE, so I had them each write 2 questions.

The only rule was that they had to know the answer to the question before they could ask.

My husband and I wrote 5 questions each.

Each question was worth 10 points. And we had a couple of questions, that had "bonus" points at the end.

Unless stated, you were allowed to use whatever notes you took during conference.


Here are the questions the kids came up with:

What was the focus point of Elder Ronald A. Rasband's talk? (bonus - what was the opening question his daughter asked him?)

How many times did President Nelson speak? (bonus - what was his total speaking time? - this child had looked this up on lds.org and didn't think we'd get it, but his Dad did!!)

What was the closing hymn?

Elder Gerritt W. Gong showed a painting in his talk. What was this painting called?

Name 3 new temples announced (city and country) not in North America?

Elder Soares compared the tributaries of the Amazon river to what?

What revelation/section of the Doctrine & Covenants is it the 100th anniversary of? (bonus - what is that section about?)

We are not what of Mormon?

How does Elder Eyring describe a test?

President Eyring was once counseled to treat everyone he meets in what way?



Parent questions:

How many apostles spoke in the Saturday morning session? (bonus - name them without looking at your notes)

Which apostle talked about Mary Poppins? (bonus - why?)

Who asked Elder Gong to watercolor with him? 

Who received the revelation that it is the 100th anniversary of? (bonus - who talked about it?)

What are the 4 things President Nelson asked the women to do?

President Nelson invited us to become what kind of Latter-day Saints?

How many sisters spoke in all the sessions combined?

Name at least 3 people who talked about taking upon us the name of Jesus Christ.

Which apostle showed a graphic of a rope? (bonus - what did the rope symbolize)

Who's son had a stroke while serving a mission?


I was impressed with the questions the kids came up with and how many answers they knew.

We ended up tying, believe it or not with 120 points each.

I love my family!!
