We discuss the talk by President Oaks entitled Kingdoms of Glory.  This was a fantastic talks that goes into great detail to the doctrinal differences of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints compared to other Christian faiths.  President Oaks talks about how loving our Father in Heaven is and how He grants each of His children an inheritance in one of His many mansions.  The mansion is suited for us, based on our choices and willingness to follow Him.

This was an excellent talk by Elder Ian S. Ardern entitled "Love Thy Neighbor". Elder Ardern shares a story of he and his wife on a trip to Uganda, and the life changing experience they had while they were there.  Their efforts and the faith of the Saints helped strengthen their relationship with the Savior and helped them feel His love for those whom they were there to serve.  What a blessing it is for us to feel His love as we reach out to serve those around us, who have cause to mourn, or to weep, or to feel less than loved.  If you'd like to read or listen to the talk online click here.  #sightsonthesavior #ldsgeneralconference #elderardern #lovethyneighbor #asIhavelovedyou
