It is common in the church to stand and testify that we KNOW the Church is True.

But what does that really mean? Is it enough that our children know the church is true or is there something more that we are striving for?

In the October 2000 General Conference, Elder Dallin H. Oaks said this, “ It is not enough for us to be convinced of the gospel; we must act and think so that we are converted by it. In contrast to the institutions of the world, which teach us to know something, the gospel of Jesus Christ challenges us to become something…. The gospel of Jesus Christ is a plan that shows us how to become what our Heavenly father desires us to become.” (The Challenge to Become, Oct. 2000 Conference)

In this episode, we talk about the importance of focusing on who we are BECOMING rather than what knowledge we are obtaining.
