No service in the Church or in the community transcends that given in the home.

Boyd K. Packer

The gospel stands as true for those who reject it as for those who accept it – both will be judged by it.

Take hold of your life and order yourself to be valiant.

Happiness is inseparably connected with decent, clean behavior.

Behavior Clean Decent
This great circle of sisters will be a protection for each of you and for your families. The Relief Society might be likened to a refuge- the place of safety and protection- the sanctuary of ancient times. You will be safe within it. It encircles each sister like a protecting wall.
BOYD K. PACKER

Circles Family Great Safety Wall
We could be like a father determined to provide everything for his family. He devotes every energy to that end and succeeds; only then does he discover that what they needed most, to be together as a family, has been neglected. And he reaps sorrow in place of contentment.
BOYD K. PACKER

Father Parenting Sorrow
I have a hard time with historians because they idolize the truth. The truth is not uplifting; it destroys. I could tell most of the secretaries in the church office building that they are ugly and fat. That would be the truth, but it would hurt and destroy them.
BOYD K. PACKER

Hard Hurt Times Uplifting
If the word is tolerance, grab that one, too, saying, “I expect you to be tolerant of my lifestyle-obedience, integrity, abstinence, repentance.” If the word is choice, tell them you choose good, old-fashioned morality.

Like most things of great worth, knowledge which is of eternal value comes only through personal prayer and pondering.
BOYD K. PACKER

The scriptures hold the keys to spiritual protection.

Keys Scripture Spiritual
We are able to feel and learn very quickly through music, through art, through poetry some spiritual things that we would otherwise learn very slowly.

Able Art Music Spiritual
Faith, to be faith, must walk to the edge of the light, and then a few steps into the darkness. If everything has to be known, if everything has to be explained, if everything has to be certified, then there is no need for faith. Indeed, there is no room for it.
BOYD K. PACKER

Certified Edge Everything Faith
Joseph’s vision of the Father and the Son opened this dispensation. Then came the Restoration of the fulness of the gospel of Jesus Christ with the same organization that existed in the primitive Church, built upon the foundation of apostles and prophets.
BOYD K. PACKER

Father Jesus Son Vision
There is little to be gained by seeking after the mysteries, for there is hardly time in a lifetime to master the plain and precious things.
BOYD K. PACKER

Lifetime Littles Mystery
