The most powerful teaching a child will ever receive will come from concerned and righteous fathers and mothers.
L. Tom PerryIn a world of turmoil and uncertainty, it is more important than ever to make our families the center of our lives and the top of our priorities.
L. Tom PerryThe world changes constantly and dramatically, but God, His commandments, and promised blessings do not change.
L. Tom PerryToday, I would like you to pause, ponder, and think of the value of an immortal soul, especially the ones entrusted to you as parents. Where are your priorities? Have you committed yourself to give the sufficient time necessary to train your children?
L. Tom PerryParents must bring light and truth into their homes by one family prayer, one scripture study session, one family home evening, one book read aloud, one song, and one family meal at a time. They know that the influence of righteous, conscientious, persistent, daily parenting is among the most powerful and sustaining forces for good in the world. The health of any society, the happiness of its people, their prosperity, and their peace all find common roots in the teaching of children in the home.
