This prayer about marginalized people, COVID-19, and a return to civil leadership
Elder Kearon is the man who spoke about refugees a few years ago. He just gave one heck of a sermon in that prayer. #ElderKearon #GeneralConference

And this one
Prove, examine and try. We must periodically check the direction we are going against the growth we are experiencing lines up with our eternal goals. That often comes in the form of challenging experiences. #GeneralConference @BednarDavidA

Don’t forget this one
Some church members opine that food storage, 72-hour kits, etc. are not important because church leaders haven't spoken recently on these topics. Church have stressed the importance of these for decades. #ElderBednar #GeneralConference

Or this one
Faithfullnes is not foolishness or fanaticism #ElderBednar #GeneralConference

Here’s another one
I’m here for this “following Christ is seeing and loving others as Christ does.” It’s the same message I bore as my testimony in my rexburg ward this week. #GeneralConference pic.twitter.com/1ARxUkyRXV

How do you like these apples?

Or this
“Wards and stakes are formed by geography and language, not race and culture.”—Quentin L. Cook #LDSConf #GeneralConference #LDS
— Tim Score CFP® (@TimScoreCFP) October 3, 2020
This
There are some good thoughts in Cook's talk but the underlying white savior complex themes and historical inaccuracies are detracting from it. Still, I'm seeing net positive steps while I ambleft wanting more. #ldsconf #GeneralConference

And this one
A temple recommend is not about do's and don'ts, it is much more than that. It is our willingness to follow the Savior #ElderRasband #GeneralConference
— Nambi Guazu (@nambiguazu) October 3, 2020
This too
Your temple recommend reflects a deep, spiritual intent that you are striving to live the laws of the Lord and love what he loves: humility, meekness, steadfastness, charity, courage, compassion, forgiveness and obedience.#ElderRasband#GeneralConference

This too
We must do better to root out racism. #GeneralConference
— Scott Adams (@PTSPentax) October 3, 2020
And this
This Nation should be better and it must do better #ElderOaks #GeneralConference
— Thom Hone (@BYUapologist) October 3, 2020
This one too
Anarchy undermines rather than protects individual rights. #PresOaks #GeneralConference #HearHim
— Dean (@YsGuy) October 3, 2020
Don’t forget about this one
This nation's history of racism is not a happy one, and we must do better. @OaksDallinH #GeneralConference #LDSConf
— Living Scriptures Animated Storyposting (@MormonToonMemes) October 3, 2020
And lastly, this one
Let me be clear, I recognize he’s calling both sides to repentance, but I feel that his talk was more about calling out the small percentage of protests that turned violent than eliminating the root cause of protesting in the first place: racism & bigotry. #GeneralConference
