What’s Up?

Conference Connection

As we draw closer to and follow Christ, we can find peace and hope despite the challenges in this world. Here’s what several Church leaders had to say about this during the April 2013 general conference.

“In moments of fear or doubt or troubling times, hold the ground you have already won, even if that ground is limited” (Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, “‘Lord, I Believe,’” Ensign, May 2013, 93–94).

“We earnestly hope and pray for universal peace, but it is as individuals and families that we achieve the kind of peace that is the promised reward of righteousness. This peace is a promised gift of the Savior’s mission and atoning sacrifice” (Elder Quentin L. Cook of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, “Personal Peace: The Reward of Righteousness,” Ensign, May 2013, 33).

“If we exercise faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the enabling power of His Atonement strengthens us in our moment of need” (Elder Craig A. Cardon of the Seventy, “The Savior Wants to Forgive,” Ensign, May 2013, 15).

During those times when challenges seem to be all around us, we can still find “hope through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection” (Moroni 7:41). Read more at conference.lds.org.
