“A good character is something you must make for yourself. It cannot be inherited from parents. It cannot be created by having extraordinary advantages. It isn't a gift of birth, wealth, talent or station. It is the result of your own endeavor. It is the reward that comes from living good principles and manifesting a virtuous and honorable life.” CharacterParentWealthResultsPrinciplesVirtueTalentBirthIntegrityAdvantageRewardsExtraordinaryGoodStationsEndeavorManifestGood LifeVirtuousHonorableGood CharacterMormonism Author:L.

“Homes should be an anchor, a safe harbor, a place of refuge, a place where families dwell together, a place where children are loved. In the home, parents should teach their children the great lessons of life. Home should be the center of one’s earthly experience, where love and mutual respect are appropriately blended.” ShouldChildrenHomeTogetherParentTeachLessonsSafeMutualLife LessonRefugeHarborsAnchorsMutual RespectSafe Harbor Author:L.

“Parents must bring light and truth into their homes by one family prayer, one scripture study session, one family home evening, one book read aloud, one song, and one family meal at a time. They know that the influence of righteous, conscientious, persistent, daily parenting is among the most powerful and sustaining forces for good in the world. The health of any society, the happiness of its people, their prosperity, and their peace all find common roots in the teaching of children in the home.” PeopleKnowsWorldChildrenBookHomeLightSongForceParentPrayerPowerfulCommonStudyInfluenceTeachingRootsProsperityScriptureEveningMealsMost PowerfulRighteousPersistentSessionSustainingGood In The WorldFamily HomeFamily PrayerScripture Study Author:L.
