—Neil L. Andersen

"How to Build Faith in God Through Scripture"
"The scriptures enlarge our memory by helping us to remember the Lord and our relationship to Him and the Father. They remind us of what we knew in our premortal life. And as these things penetrate our minds and hearts, our faith in God and His Beloved Son takes root."
—Todd Christofferson

"Trust in God, Then Go and Do"
"You show your trust in [God] when you listen with the intent to learn and repent and then you go and do whatever He asks. If you trust God enough to listen for His message in every sermon, song, and prayer in this conference, you will find it. And if you then go and do what He would have you do, your power to trust Him will grow, and in time you will be overwhelmed with gratitude to find that He has come to trust you."
—Henry B. Eyring

"The Power of the Priesthood", Liahona and Ensign, May 2010
"I bear witness of the power of the priesthood given to the Church to protect us and guide us. And because we have that, we have no fear of the future. Fear is the opposite of faith. We move forward, certain that the Lord will watch over us, particularly in the family."
—Boyd K. Packer

—Henry B. Eyring
"Face the Future with Faith", General Conference, May 2011

-Russel M. Nelson

 "Where Is the Pavilion?", Liahona and Ensign, November 2012

—Henry B. Eyring

"The Atonement", Liahona and Ensign, November 2012
"No matter what our transgressions have been, no matter how much our actions may have hurt others, that guilt can all be wiped out.

—Boyd K. Packer,
