COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS
March 30–April 5
“He Will Swallow Up Death in Victory”
Easter Lesson | Scripture Study for LDS Moms
INTRO
Hey mamas, welcome back to another week of Come Follow Me Moms…
This week is Easter AND General Conference. We get a double whammy. How special is that?
I just love when Conference and Easter land on the same Sunday. It’s so fun getting to celebrate Easter with our kids and listen to the prophet at the same time.
Yes, it may feel chaotic… but it’s our kind of chaos. And it’s beautiful.
I used to get so frustrated when my littles wouldn’t sit still for hours of conference. I thought it had to look a certain way. But I’ve learned… if you can’t beat them, join them.
Now we keep it simple.
The kids pick out a Lego set to work on
We have a little candy station with words they can listen for
If they wander, it’s okay
Playdough for the littles
Coloring, puzzles, snacks
We are teaching them where they are at.
And guess what
I can actually enjoy conference now too
✨ JESUS CHRIST IS THE CENTER
So let’s talk about this week. Holy Week.
And I want to start with this truth:
👉 Jesus Christ is the center of everything
Not just church
Not just scripture
Not just Easter Sunday
Everything
Your life
Your motherhood
Your healing
Your future
The scriptures teach us that His life is central to all human history.
Meaning…
👉 Every single person who has ever lived or ever will live is connected to Him
Before Jesus came
People looked forward to Him
After Jesus came
We look back to Him
👉 But we are all connected through Him
📖 Jacob 4:4
Ancient prophets believed in Him
Trusted Him
Had hope in Him
🫶 THEY WERE LOOKING FOR HIM
Mamas…
Sometimes we think the Old Testament is just stories.
But it’s actually full of people waiting for Jesus.
Hoping for Him
Trusting Him
Believing He would save them
📖 Isaiah 53:6
He took on the iniquity of us all
Not some
Not a few
ALL
That includes you
On your hardest day
When you lose your patience
When you feel like you’re not enough
💔 WHAT HE ACTUALLY DID
Let’s bring it back to Easter.
Jesus didn’t just come to teach.
👉 He came to suffer
📖 Isaiah 53:4–5
📖 Alma 7:11–13
He took on:
Pain
Sickness
Grief
Temptation
Sin
Heartbreak
👉 There is NOTHING you are feeling that He has not already felt
So when you feel overwhelmed in motherhood
He understands
When you feel alone
He has already been there
🧠 MOM HEART CHECK
Mamas…
What are you carrying right now?
Stress
Comparison
Exhaustion
Guilt
👉 You don’t have to carry it alone
Because He already carried it for you
🌅 THE VICTORY
Now let’s talk about the best part.
Because Easter is not just about suffering.
👉 It’s about victory
📖 1 Corinthians 15:22
In Christ shall all be made alive
📖 Isaiah 25:8
He will swallow up death in victory
Let that sink in.
Death is not the end
Hard things are not the end
Your story is not over
✨ RESURRECTION IS FOR YOU
Because of Jesus Christ:
You can be forgiven
You can be healed
You can start again
You can change
👉 Resurrection is not just something that happened to Jesus
👉 It is something available to YOU
Every single day
When you try again
When you apologize
When you choose patience
When you turn back to God
👉 That is resurrection in your life
👩👧 TEACHING YOUR KIDS
Mamas, let’s make this EASY this week.
You do not need a perfect lesson.
Try this:
Look at pictures of Jesus
Read a few short verses
Ask one question
“What did Jesus do for us?”
Let your kids tell YOU the story
Watch a short Easter video
Sing songs about Jesus
👉 And most importantly
Share how YOU feel about Him
That is what they will remember
🌿 WALK THROUGH HOLY WEEK
We do the 8 days of Holy Week in our home and keep it simple:
Palm Sunday
Jesus enters Jerusalem on a donkey
People shout Hosanna
Monday
Jesus cleanses the temple
Tuesday
Jesus teaches
Wednesday
A quiet preparation day
Thursday
The Last Supper
He washes feet
Gethsemane
Friday
The Crucifixion
Saturday
The tomb
Waiting
Silence
Sunday
The Resurrection
The tomb is empty
He lives
💗 FEELING THE SPIRIT
Mamas…
Your kids already feel the Spirit
They just might not know what it is yet
So when you feel:
Peace
Love
Warmth
Comfort
👉 Say it out loud
“That’s the Spirit”
Teach them how to recognize Him
🙌 WE ARE NOT ALONE
We are not the only ones who believe in Jesus
Ancient prophets believed in Him
We believe in Him
Our children are learning to believe in Him
👉 We are all connected through Christ
Mamas…
This Easter, keep it simple
Remember Him
Talk about Him
Feel Him
Because of Him:
You are not alone
You are not behind
You are not too far gone
👉 You are loved
👉 You are redeemed
👉 You are becoming
And He is walking with you every step of the way
If this episode touched your heart, share it with another mama who needs it this week 🤍
Happy Easter, mama. He is risen ✨
