What does it mean to be true to the faith? That word true implies commitment, integrity, endurance, and courage.

Loving-kindness is required, but a follower of Christ-just like the Master-will be firm in the truth.

As Elder George F. Richards, President of the Council of the Twelve, said in a conference address in April 1947, 'when we say anything bad about the leaders of the Church, whether true or false, we tend to impair their influence and their usefulness and are thus working against the Lord and his cause.' ... The Holy Ghost will not guide or confirm criticism of the Lord's anointed, or of Church leaders, local or general. This reality should be part of the spiritual evaluation that LDS readers and viewers apply to those things written about our history and those who made it.

The intensity of our desire to share the gospel is a great indicator of the extent of our personal conversion.

The church doesn't seek apologies and we don't give them.

And young women, please understand that if you dress immodestly, you are magnifying this problem by becoming pornography to some of the men who see you.

Let us give thanks for what we are and for the circumstances God has given us for our personal journey through mortality.
