Obedience to the law of chastity will increase our happiness in mortality and make possible our progress in eternity.

Sometimes we overcomplicate living the gospel.

The enabling power of the Atonement strengthens us to do and be good and to serve beyond our own individual desire and natural capacity.

It's tough for parents to talk to children about heavy-weight topics such as peer pressure, drugs and morality if they don't already have a closeness. A parent can't just all of a sudden pick out an hour and talk to a son about being morally clean if the parent and child haven't spent much time together for three or four years. I think closeness is developed more quickly by having fun together.

Feeling the security and constancy of love from a spouse, a parent or a child is a rich blessing. Such love nurtures and sustains faith in God. Such love is a source of strength and casts out fear. Such love is the desire of every human soul.

People of integrity and honesty not only practice what they preach, they are what they preach.

Understanding who we are, where we came from, and why we are upon the earth places upon each of us a great responsibility both to learn how to learn and to learn to love learning.
