It is mother's influence during the crucial formative years that forms a child's basic character. Home is the place where a child learns faith, feels love, and thereby learns from mother's loving example to choose righteousness.

There are some who apparently feel that the fight for freedom is separate from the Gospel. They express it in several ways, but it generally boils down to this: Just live the gospel; there's no need to get involved in trying to save freedom and the Constitution or stop communism....

No we should not, because our stand for freedom is a most basic part of our religion.

Beware of those who would pit the dead prophets against the living prophets, for the living prophets always take precedence.
