Scripture Study - Alma teaches about Faith

Tonight was when Alma taught the people about how faith it like a seed, found in Alma 32 of the Book of Mormon. I started first showing them this video, which is a time laspe of a seed growing. Every few seconds I pointed out how much the roots had grown, and how it would get harder and harder to pull the plant out of the ground. We then went over the story in the Book of Mormon stories, and read a verse from the Book of Mormon, corresponding to each picture. I think printed off this picture at the bottom of this page from the Friend. I used only the side picture, which has a heart, that you cut out the middle of and then slide the row of pictures through. Each time I moved the next picture in to the window of the heart I would say "Now look what happens to our seed when we read our scriptures". The for the next picture "Look what happened now, when we go to church." Other ideas I used were, keep the commandments, try to be like Jesus, take the sacrament, pray, etc. This was the big hit for the kiddos (and ended up fighting over it..sigh).
