The following are 18 fun questions that were handed out in my LDS Relief Society class. I thought others might like to use it in their own Relief Society, Sunday School, Primary, or Priesthood lessons. The information used for this lesson idea comes from a talk entitled, "Personal Revelation" by Elder L. Lionel Kendrick of the Seventy. It can be found in the Sept. 1999 Ensign, p. 6-13.

NOTE: The teacher handed out the questions with a pen/paper at the beginning of the class. Some of the papers had the scripture highlighted with a note asking the person with that highlighted scripture to look it up to read during class.
