Sunday Night Devotional -- Brother Sherman Crump, Managing Director of the Missionary Department
Three sacred places: the temple, the MTC, and HOME... where family is!
A survey was done of what's most important to people, and money and career was first and other materialistic things as you went down the list... in regards to Spiritual things, even higher than the Savior or the Plan of Salvation, was FAMILY!
We played a game called "Can you Find out" out of the Family Home Evening Manual... He named things about himself and if it was similar to us we raised our hands: "Red toothbrush... Wear glasses... Size 12 shoes..." Romans 8:14-17 and Ephesians 5:25 & 31. There is no place more influential to instill values than the family.... COMMUNICATE!
We become stronger when we appeal to God for help and await his decision. Alma 40:23 -- consoling scripture when his beautiful daughter, Colette, was killed -- She is alive!! That is the message of the family. The gospel of Christ takes the bitterness out of funerals.
