Women's Contribution

Women who make a house a home make a far greater contribution to society than those who command large armies or stand at the head of impressive corporations. Who can put a price tag on the influence a mother has on her children, a grandmother on her posterity, or aunts and sisters on their extended family?  We cannot begin to measure or calculate the influence of women who, in their own ways, build stable family life and nurture for everlasting good the generations of the future. The decisions made by the women of this generation will be eternal in their consequences. May I suggest that the mothers of today have no greater opportunity and no more serious challenge than to do all they can to strengthen the [home].

Pornography is Like a Raging Storm

It is like raging storm,destroying individuals and families, utterly ruining what 
was once wholesome and beautiful.speak of pornography in all of its 
manifestations...And sin it is. It is devilish. It is totally inconsistent with the spirit of the 
gospel, with personal testimony of the things of God, and with the life of one who has been ordained to the holy priesthood... The time has come for any one of us who is soinvolved to pull himself out of the mire.
