"Hostility never persuades." A variant I've heard is that you can't insult someone into being wrong. #ldsconf #generalconference

One of my friends likes to say "need is a strong word". Sometimes we don't know what we actually need, and we confuse wants for needs. It's good for all of us to be self-reflective to tell the difference between the two. #ldsconf #generalconference

Challenges are meant as opportunities to grow. Opting for the easiest life robs you of the opportunity to be your best you. #ldsconf #generalconference

Justice and mercy must be in balance. Leaning too far towards one extreme or the other means you will lose yourself. #ldsconf #generalconference

There is more that unites us than divides us, across cultures and faith traditions. This is what makes the United States unique, an ideal that embraces this pluralism in the most radical way ever in human history. #ldsconf #generalconference

C'mon, guys. It's been long enough that the lyrics should be on the screen when you're expecting us to sing along. #ldsconf #generalconference

We're given opportunities in this life and are expected to rise to the occasion, but we have additional opportunities in the next life. God wants us to succeed, and He will not set us up to fail. #ldsconf #generalconference

Remember that Moses called himself "slow of speech" which has been interpreted to mean he had a stutter. He still went on to accomplish great things. #ldsconf #generalconference

We have a very radical form of universalism in which not only do we believe all can be saved, but all are entitled to the direct light of God. As a "peculiar people", we should embrace it! #ldsconf #generalconference

Really leaning hard into "a hospital for sinners, not a rest home for saints". We should be united around a common sense of purpose, a knowledge that we're imperfect but trying, and not any other attribute. Diversity in the Church is good! #ldsconf #generalconference

I think the lesson to take away from Elder Uchtdorf's story is that people always react well to genuine sentiment. Fake stinks. #ldsconf #generalconference

Faith doesn't give me all the answers, but it gives me enough of them. #ldsconf #generalconference

"Without the atonement we cannot save ourselves from sin and death." The deeper lesson I take from that is that we are all to help AND be helped. The latter one we all have so much trouble with. #ldsconf #generalconference

"We admire Him, but we don't worship Him." Dang, that's a deep cut. #ldsconf #generalconference

"Many of the Savior's parabolic teachings focus on gathering, restoring, or striving to find that which has been scattered or lost."
#Parabolic, meaning "using parables"! Very different from the mathematical/geometric concept of Parabolic I normally use.

Never before has there been such a proliferation of media and facts. Working in a College of Humanities, that's why I've taught #CriticalThought is crucial. But the gospel, Holy Ghost are crucial tools too.
