Ephesians Personal Study Guide includes printed content for eight sessions, applicable Scripture, and learning activities.
The letter to the Ephesians is filled with theological wisdom and practical insight for how to live as a Christian. Perhaps better than any book in the New Testament, this letter highlights how to define our identity through our relationship to Christ. In it we see we have been chosen by God, called to be His children, and saved by grace. Furthermore, we see how this calling and identification with Christ leads us to be unified with one another both in the church and in our interpersonal relationships. It calls us to live lives of holiness and persevere in our faith despite obstacles. Through Paul's letter, we find out who we are in Christ.

Bible Studies for Life is designed to help adult groups make disciples through comprehensive, in-depth Bible study. Each year, this series addresses the eight spiritual markers found in maturing believers to ensure that participants
are getting a balanced approach to discipleship.
During 2023, children, youth and adults in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are encouraged to study at home the New Testament, which details the birth of the Savior, His life, teachings and Atonement, and the ministry of his apostles. This study will be supported in Primary, Sunday School and Seminary. The Church has revised the print and digital versions of the 2019 “Come, Follow Me” manuals for individuals and
families, Sunday School, Primary and Aaronic Priesthood and Young Women for the 2023 curriculum. Relief Society and elders quorum meetings will continue to focus on general conference messages. Details and the list of materials to be used for classes are provided in the document
Instructions for Curriculum 2023. The 2023 curriculum items are available digitally now in Gospel Library and will be on ComeFollowMe.ChurchofJesusChrist.org by August 31, 2022. Members are encouraged to use digital versions of the revised manuals where possible. Use the links below or visit ComeFollowMe.ChurchofJesusChrist.org, which includes links to all “Come, Follow Me” manuals and other regularly updated media. In 2018, President Russell M. Nelson said the
home-centered, Church-supported “Come, Follow Me” integrated curriculum “has the potential to unleash the power of families, as each family follows through conscientiously and carefully to transform their home into a sanctuary of faith” (“Becoming Exemplary Latter-day Saints,” October 2018 general conference). The Church will no longer automatically send printed lesson manuals to units free of charge. Branch and ward leaders can order print materials for members who want them, or members can order copies for themselves at store.ChurchofJesusChrist.org. Units will need to place orders by August 31, 2022, to be available by January 2023. To order, visit
store.ChurchofJesusChrist.org, select Units and Callings, and then select Annual Curriculum. Materials in audio format, in braille and in large print are also available at store.ChurchofJesusChrist.org. The scriptures and other Church materials are available in a variety of
accessible formats. Other helpful New Testament resources include: Latter-day Saints are encouraged to use Teaching in the Savior’s Way resources, which include a June 12 devotional featuring Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf and helpful
teaching videos. A revised “Teaching in the Savior’s Way” manual is available now on Gospel Library, and a print version will be sent to every household in January.Ordering Print

The Sunday School manual for adults and youth is the revised “Come, Follow Me — For Sunday School: New Testament 2023.”
Teachers should use the manual for individuals and families to learn about the scripture accounts and the principles to be taught, then use the Sunday School manual to prepare and organize lessons that support what class members are studying at home, combining and adapting lessons as necessary.
Instruction and class discussion should help class members understand and apply the doctrine in the scriptures. Sunday School classes do not begin with prayer but do conclude with one.
