“For youth, there is no substitute for seeing the gospel
lived in our daily lives. The stripling warriors did not have to wonder what
their parents believed. They said, “We do not doubt our mothers knew it.” Do
our children know what we know? I have a grandson who once asked me to go with
him to a popular but inappropriate movie. I told him I wasn’t old enough to see
that film. He was puzzled until his grandmother explained to him that the
rating system by age didn’t apply to Grandpa. He came back to me and said, ‘I
get it now, Grandpa. You’re never going to be old enough to see that movie, are
you?’ And he was right!” – Elder Robert D. Hales
