Future Roles

Multiple speakers sometimes address the same topic. Here is what three speakers said about preparing for future roles:

  • “Young men, … live your life so that as a man you will bring purity to your marriage and to your children.” —D. Todd Christofferson, “Fathers,” 96.

  • “Prayerfully determine what you can do—according to your own time and circumstance—to serve the refugees living in your neighborhoods and communities.” —Linda K. Burton, “I Was a Stranger,” 14.

  • “In God’s plan of happiness, we are not so much looking for someone perfect but for a person with whom, throughout a lifetime, we can join efforts to create a loving, lasting, and more perfect relationship.” —Dieter F. Uchtdorf, “In Praise of Those Who Save,” 78.
