Teachings of Howard W. Hunter Lesson 7: "Continuous Revelation through Living Prophets"

One of the main points I have taken away from this lesson is the privilege that is ours to have living prophets. As you look at some of the quotes from the lesson, try to see your life and what it would be like without a living prophet available in it to make a difference. Where would we really be without continuous revelation?

How President Nelson Strengthened My Struggling Testimony of the Prophet Joseph Smith

By LDS Living Staff

There are very few things I can stand at a pulpit and testify I know are true. Among them are that I know my Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother love me with an infinite, unfathomably deep and perfect love, and they are far more merciful to me than I deserve. The second is that I know that Jesus Christ, my brother and Savior, died for me, knows me—my pains, shortcomings, sins, weaknesses, joys, and strengths—entirely, and that He has never and will never abandon me.

How President Oaks Answered My Prayer—2 Months Before I Even Asked

By Kelly Newman

“The name of Jesus Christ,” the text message read. It was the topic I received from the bishopric member in the ward that I was assigned to speak to that Sunday as a member of the high council. I thought, “That’s a pretty vague topic.” I began to ponder what exactly I may speak about to that ward on Sunday. However, not really anything came to my mind throughout the week.

Watch: ‘What should I expect when I receive my temple endowment?’ John Hilton III answers

By John Hilton III

When I received my temple endowment, I wasn’t as prepared as I should have been. As is the case for some young adults, I had recently switched wards, and, as a result, hadn’t taken a temple preparation class. I also had heard some misinformation about the temple that made me nervous. In short, I didn’t have the greatest experience when I first participated in the intiatory and endowment ordinances in the temple. Fortunately, my parents encouraged me to go back, and after a few more visits to the temple, I loved it, and felt its spiritual power.
