General Conference Applied "True to the Faith That Our Parents Have Cherished"
8/3/2025: S5 E35, Episode 144, Elder Hans T. Boom, April 2025 General Conference, "True to the Faith That Our Parents Have Cherished".
Clay and Mitch identified the following invitations and shared how they will take action and how you could take action:
1. "As a family we went through some hardships, just like any other family. These have only made us stronger and have deepened our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ."
2. "Their decision to become members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints had a great impact on their lives as they were shunned by the villagers and by their family. It took many years, loving notes to family members, and service to the community before they were finally accepted."
3. "Even when this might not be the case, as my mother experienced as a child, you can become one of those 'goodly parents who love the Lord' and provide a righteous example to others."
4. "To those of the rising generation wherever you are and in whatever situation you may find yourself, please learn and receive strength from the faith and testimonies of those who came before you. ... All of us, whether we are the first generation in the gospel or the fifth, should ask ourselves, What stories of faith, strength, and celestial commitment will I pass on to the next generation? ... Let us be 'true to the faith that our parents have cherished, true to truth for which martyrs have perished, to God's command, soul, heart, and hand, faithful and true we will ever stand.'"
5. "Thinking about a sacrifice that will truly bless your life, please consider and pray about the invitation of our beloved prophet, President Russell M. Nelson, when he asked 'every worthy, able young man to prepare for and serve a mission. For Latter-day Saint young men, missionary service is a priesthood responsibility. … 'For … young and able sisters, a mission is also a powerful, but optional, opportunity.'"
6. "Remember, 'for how knoweth a man the master whom he has not served, and who is a stranger unto him, and is far from the thoughts and intents of his heart?'"
7. "In both types of service [serving as a service missionary or a teaching missionary], you will show the Lord you love Him and that you want to get to know Him better. ... Let us all continue in our efforts to get to know our Savior, Jesus Christ, better and to make Him the center of our lives. He is the rock upon which we must build."
