"The issue is not going to church; rather, the issue
is worshipping and renewing covenants as we attend church. The issue is
not going to or through the temple; rather, the issue is having in our
hearts the spirit, the covenants, and the ordinances of the Lord's house.
The issue is not going on a mission; rather, the issue is becoming a
missionary and serving throughout our entire life with all of our heart,
might, mind, and strength." -David A. Bednar, "Becoming a Missionary,"
Ensign, Nov. 2005, 45
"We must not only be tolerant, but
we must cultivate a spirit of affirmative gratitude for those who do not see
things quite as we see them. We do not in any way have to compromise our
theology, our convictions, our knowledge of eternal truth as it has been
revealed by the God of heaven. We can offer our own witness of the truth, but
never in a manner that will give offense to others . We must learn to accord
appreciation and respect for others who are as sincere in their beliefs and
practices as we are." -President Gordon B. Hinckley
