Last weekend, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints held one of its twice a year General Conference’s. These are weekend long multiple session events where our leaders speak to us and give us spiritual guidance. The wonderful sermons cover a wide assortment of topics and the wisdom is given humbly, but profoundly in many cases.
This October’s General Conference was no different, but I will steer everyone toward the incredible Priesthood Session. The talks there were fantastic, especially the ones by Elder Juan A. Uceda and President Dieter F. Uchtdorf. The newly revamped General Conference section has all of the proceedings in video and audio formats to watch or download.
I challenged two of my home teaching families to watch and take notes then select the one talk that spoke to each of them directly. Because of that, I had to do the same. That’s what I get for making a challenge. It turned out to be much harder than usual this time. That’s how good the talks were. But in the end, President Uchtdorf’s Pride and the Priesthood stood out by a hair. I can’t wait to find out what my home teachee’s are.
I also thought Pres. Uchtdorf's talk on pride was one of the stand-out talks from conference. The other one that really impressed me was Elder Kieron's (sp?) talk in Priesthood about rebellion. (That was the talk with the scorpion story.)
ReplyDeleteI agree, Elder Kearon's talk was impressive as well. Too many of us are wandering through the perils of life only wearing flip-flops. (I cheated and looked his name up in my MP3's from General Conference.)
