    Oaks semi-annual end-times lamentation is always so inspirational. Can't wait for the next one!

      The sister that spoke after Elder Utchdorf gave a fantastic talk as well.
      The sister that she mentioned who took quilts to Kosovo was my aunt, who passed away a few years ago.

      Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

        I actually did watch most of the morning session

        I may be small, but I'm slow.

        A veteran - whether active duty, retired, or national guard or reserve is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to, "The United States of America ", for an amount of "up to and including my life - it's an honor."

          Dear OW,

          Y'all don't have a rocket.

          Hugs and kisses,

          DGR.

              Sister Oscarson is one of my favorite speakers. I missed her talk this morning so I’m getting caught up tonight. You’re right. That was a great talk.

                Some people are upset about Elder Oaks' talk and the focus on gay marriage. But I'm finally feeling some hope like this is a gospel I can live with. I've never gay married anyone. Nor have I ever really been tempted. So, I basically feel like I'm a perfect Mormon.

                  Have you ever baked a cake for a gay marriage?

                  "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf
