Prophets and apostles show us how to serve.

December 3, 2012

Primary Talks

President Thomas S. Monson repeats what the Savior said — that in order to find purpose in life, lose yourself in the service of others. “Those who live only for themselves eventually shrivel up and figuratively lose their lives, while those who lose themselves in service to others grow and flourish — and in effect save their lives,” he says. (http://www.lds.org/prophets-and-apostles/unto-all-the-world/serve-god-by…) No living person has stood before more general conference…

We are led by a living prophet today.

Primary Talks

Eleven-year-old Rebecca stared out the bus window but didn’t really see the houses passing by. The after-school bus commotion raged around her but didn’t interrupt her troubled thoughts. If I don’t get an A on the final history report, I won’t get an A in history. That means no honor roll. It’s not fair. I’ve worked hard all year long to get on the honor roll, and now, all because…

Prophets speak for Heavenly Father

December 29, 2010

Primary Talks

I skipped up the dusty drive, past the gray stone houses nestled in bright purple blossoms, and into the open doorway. Mother pushed back her damp hair and set a bucket of muddy water down. It was Monday, the day she washed the walls and rinsed away the dirt that blew in with the winds. Monday was also important because of family home evening. My brothers, Chris and Trenton, and…

Prophets speak for Heavenly Father

December 29, 2010

I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded (1 Ne. 3:7). My name is William Paul McCallister, but everyone calls me Willy. I’m ten years old, and last year my parents decided that our family would go to general conference in Salt Lake City. We live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, so it was a long drive for us. Then we had to stand in line a…

Prophets Testify of Jesus Christ

February 10, 2010

Primary Talks

Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets (Amos 3:7). If God himself told His prophet something that the whole world needed to hear, but that prophet lived long ago or far away, how could we get the message? Answer: The prophets carefully wrote it down for us; we can find it in books and other writings called scriptures. The scriptures…

November 20, 2008

Adapted from Scripture Stories (PBIC0358) Hel. 10–11 Nephi was heartsick. He had tried hard to teach the Nephites to live righteously, but they would not forsake their wicked ways.
