We just had a wonderful weekend learning more about the gospel of Jesus Christ at our local stake conference. I think my two main highlights would be this:
We aren't teaching people to come to church, but we ARE teaching them to come unto Christ.
Don't fret over the failings we have. Focus on our strengths so that we are being built up instead of torn down.
Subheadings would be the significance of prayer, both individual prayers and praying as a family as well as how much we can learn from those around us, especially our children.
It's nice when you've come to certain conclusions yourself and then to have them reiterated by others so you know you aren't just a crazy person for thinking those things.
And, Elder Malm is a funny, joyful man of God. He spoke in the most recent General Conference, and you can read his talk here.
