This church does not belong to its President. Its head is the Lord Jesus Christ, whose name each of us has taken upon ourselves. We are all in this great endeavor together. We are here to assist our Father in His work and His glory. Your obligation is as serious in your sphere of responsibility as is my obligation in my sphere. No calling in this church is small or of little consequence.
Gordon B. HinckleyWe feel the need to emphasize with greater clarity the obligation for members of the Church to become more independent and self reliant.
Gordon B. HinckleyI hope you will simply do what you can do in the best way you know. If you do so, you will witness miracles come to pass.
Gordon B. HinckleyIf we could follow the slogan that says,"Turn off the TV and open a good book" we would do something of substance for a future generation.
Gordon B. HinckleyMarriage should not be viewed as a therapeutic step to solve problems such as homosexual inclinations or practices.
Gordon B. HinckleyNo system can long command the loyalties of men and women which does not expect of them certain measures of discipline, and particularly self-discipline. The cost in comfort may be great. The sacrifice may be real. But this very demanding reality is the substance of which comes character and strength and nobility. Permissiveness never produced greatness. Integrity, loyalty, and strength are virtues whose sinews are developed through the struggles that go on within as we practice self-discipline under the demands of divinely spoken truth.
