Raymond Egbo, October 2024 General Conference, "Focus on Jesus Christ and His Gospel".Clay and Mitch identified the following invitation and shared how they will take action:1. "Ignore the distractions of the world and focus on Christ and His gospel."2. "For parents with children who have strayed, take heart! Instead of wondering why an angel does not come to help your child repent, know that the Lord has placed a mortal angel in his or her path: the bishop, another Church leader, or a ministering brother or sister. If you keep fasting and praying, if you do not set a timetable or a deadline for God, and if you trust that He is stretching forth His hand to help, then—sooner or later—you find God touching the heart of your child when your child chooses to listen."Watch General Conference Applied on YouTube ...2025-04-061h 32General Conference Applied"Sons and Daughters of God"4/3/2025: Episode 108, Elder Rubén V.

1. "Reading the Savior’s teachings in the scriptures helps us transform our homes into sanctuaries of faith and centers of gospel learning."
2. "We study the scriptures so the Holy Ghost, the great teacher, can deepen our conversion to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ and help us become more like Them.
"With these thoughts in mind, we could consider, 'What has the Holy Ghost taught us this week during our study of the Book of Mormon?' and 'How does this bring us closer to the Savior?'
"These are good questions for our scripture study at home...2024-08-2553 minGeneral Conference Applied"A Record of What I Have Both Seen and Heard"8/22/2024: Elder Brent H. Nielson, April 2024 General Conference, "A Record of What I Have Both Seen and Heard".

Mitch identified the following invitations and shared ideas for taking action:
1. "Everything changes when I know who I really am. When I doubt my abilities, I often repeat to myself in my mind or out loud, 'I am a daughter of God, I am a daughter of God,' as many times as I need until I again feel confident to keep going."
2. "Christ invites us to keep Him in our thoughts constantly; He tells us, 'Look unto me in every thought.' Thinking about the Savior gives us clarity of mind to make decisions, to act without fear, and to say no to what is contrary to God’s teachings. When my day is dif...2024-08-181h 00General Conference Applied"Put Ye On the Lord Jesus Christ"8/11/2024: Sister J. Anette Dennis, April 2024 General Conference, "Put Ye On the Lord Jesus Christ".
Mitch identified the following invitations and shared ideas for taking action:
1. "As my two youngest children were growing, I discovered books that were entertaining and engaging but also used symbolism in their stories. As we read together in the evenings, I loved helping my children understand the symbolism the author was using to teach deeper principles, even gospel principles."
2. "As we make covenants with God in the house of the Lord, we further deepen our relationship with Him. Everything we do in the temple points to our Father’s plan for us, at the heart of which is the Savior and His atoning sacrifice. The Lord will teach us line upon line through the symbolism of t...2024-08-1155 minGeneral Conference Applied"Pray, He Is There"8/4/2024: President Susan H.

Mitch identified the following invitation and shared ideas for taking action:
1. "Does this mean anything goes with regard to how we live our lives? That the way we choose to use our agency doesn’t matter? That we can take or leave God’s commandments? No, of course not. Surely one of Jesus’s most consistent invitations and pleas during His mortal ministry was that we change and repent and come unto Him. Fundamentally implicit in all of His teachings to live on a higher plane of moral conduct is a call to personal progression, to transformative faith in Christ, to a mighty change of heart. God wants for us a radical...2024-07-2842 minGeneral Conference Applied"Covenant Confidence through Jesus Christ"7/21/2024: Elder Ulisses Soares, April 2024 General Conference, "Covenant Confidence through Jesus Christ".
Mitch identified the following invitations and shared ideas for taking action:
1. "Preparation isn’t just for those going to the temple for the first time. We all should be perpetually preparing to go to the house of the Lord. One stake I know has adopted the motto ‘Home centered, Church supported, and temple bound.’ Bound is an interesting word in that it means focused on a direction, but it also means fastened to or secured by, resolved and determined, sure. So being temple bound secures us to the Savior, giving us proper direction and stability while ensuring we have covenant confidence through Jesus Christ. Therefore, all of us...2024-07-2156 minGeneral Conference Applied"All Things for Our Good"7/14/2024: Elder Gerrit W. Gong, April 2024 General Conference, "All Things for Our Good".
Mitch identified the following invitation and shared ideas for taking action:
1. "When trials come, often what we most want is for someone to listen and be with us. In the moment, cliché answers can be unhelpful, however comforting their intent. Sometimes we yearn for someone who will grieve, ache, and weep with us; let us express pain, frustration, sometimes even anger; and acknowledge with us there are things we do not know.”

In the days ahead, when you pass over a majestic suspension bridge or even when you see a picture, with its soaring towers, I invite you to remember the two great commandments, described by Jesus Christ in the New Testament. May the Lord’s instructions inspire us. May our hearts and minds be lifted upward to love the Lord and turned outward to love our neighbor.”

Mitch identified the following invitations and shared ideas for taking action:
1. "We ‘hear Him’ in the words of scripture, but do we let them just sit on the page, or do we recognize He is speaking to us? Do we change?”
2. "Elder George Albert Smith, long before becoming President of the Church, spoke of sustaining the prophet and heeding his words. He said: ‘The obligation that we make when we raise our hands … is a most sacred one. … It means … that we will stand behind him; we will pray for him; … and we will strive to carry out his instructions as the Lord shall direct.’ In other words...2024-06-2359 minGeneral Conference Applied"Temples, Houses of the Lord Dotting the Earth"6/16/2024: Elder Neil L.

Mitch identified the following invitation and shared ideas for taking action:
1. "My invitation is to act now to secure your place as one who is valiant in the testimony of Jesus. As repentance may be needed, 'do not procrastinate the day of your repentance,' lest 'in an hour when ye think not the summer shall be past, and the harvest ended, and your souls not saved.'

Cook, April 2024 General Conference, "Be One with Christ".
Mitch identified the following invitations and shared ideas for taking action:
1. "Given our 'likeness' before God, it makes little sense to emphasize our differences. Some have wrongly encouraged us 'to imagine people to be much more different from ourselves and from each other than they actually are. [Some] take real but small differences and magnify them into chasms.'"
2. "In this extremely competitive world, there is a constant effort to excel. Striving to be the best we can be is a righteous and worthwhile endeavor. It is consistent with the Lord’s doctrine.

Mitch identified the following invitations and shared ideas for taking action:
1. “We are to 'pray always.' We are to pray, Amulek said, for 'those who are around you,' with the belief that the 'fervent prayer of a righteous [people] availeth much.' Our prayers ought to be vocal when we have the privacy to so offer them. If that is not practical, they should be carried as silent utterances in our heart."
2. "We are to employ prayer as a shield against temptation."

Mitch identified the following invitation and shared ideas for taking action:
1. “Persons who have been endowed in a temple are responsible to wear a temple garment, an article of clothing not visible because it is worn beneath outer clothing. It reminds endowed members of the sacred covenants they have made and the blessings they have been promised in the holy temple. To achieve those holy purposes, we are instructed to wear temple garments continuously, with the only exceptions being those obviously necessary. Because covenants do not 'take a day off,' to remove one’s garments can be understood as a disclaimer of the co...2024-04-2854 minGeneral Conference Applied"Rejoice in the Gift of Priesthood Keys"4/21/2024: President Russell M.
