I prophesy that bednar will start by stating that he prays for the spirit to be here while he speaks, then he will proceed to discuss a list of 3-5 of his favorite ideas.

Beautiful song - Consider the lilies.
Would it be a more enjoyable meeting if it were all music?
Or if speakers had to sing and modern dance what they said. ;)

For those in Utah I discovered something yesterday that upped the entertainment value for me. On KSLs channel 5.2 they have conference in a background window with an ASL interpreter in front, interpreting. I don't know much about ASL, but apparently facial expressions are part of a word? Anyway, watching the GA speaking along with the facial expressions of the interpreters could be hilarious at times.

Carry on, NOMies.

Do you all feel sufficient shame for not memorizing the Living Christ? A 6 year old could do it. What's your excuse.

Ugh. Sorry for the rant.

Miracles are real. You should accept that they happen to other people, but don't expect one for yourself or loved ones.

Wow, truly faithful people show it by accepting that priesthood doesn't really work. Wow.

I climbed Shasta 15 years ago. Mormons sure do like their miracles, whether the miracle is positive or not. I call it chance, luck, and unpredictable.
Equal access to these miracles? Since when?
