Jeffrey R. Holland | April 2025 General Conference Talk

The Humility and Innocence of Children: Lessons from the Gospel of Christ

In this general conference talk, we explore the profound teachings of Jesus Christ regarding humility, using the example of a little child's pure-hearted nature. The script delves into how Christ's exemplary humility and love for children emphasized essential virtues necessary for entering the Kingdom of Heaven. Through touching stories and personal anecdotes, including the inspiring tale of young Easton Darren Jolly overcoming tremendous physical challenges to serve in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the episode highlights the beauty, strength, and godliness embodied by children. It concludes with a testimony of faith in the teachings of Jesus Christ, the prophetic calling of Russell M. Nelson, and the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon.

President Camille Johnson gave a talk directed just to me. I live in Soldotna Alaska and am truly grateful for her talk. ❤

[PhilileMkhwanazi-vg]

Elder Holland gave a talk that inspires me to be humble like a child and to avoid to be stirred by a natural man because that would lead me to be not following Jesus Christ example.❤

[souksakhonesenebouttarath]

Amen, we are children too to always think of Jesus, it is also parenting at homes to be a lead for making family to be a good cheer!

[coleygyaluv]

Thanks for sharing cause I missed it this morning

[teresawilson]

Man the spirit hit me strong with this one

[MasonRoberts-ok]

I like jiffy Holland is the Tulsa between him and Mr Nelson which one is my favorite I'm not sure is too hard to choose I've recently became a Mormon I'm pretty happy with them

[markandpamtaylor]

I’ve never quite understood Mormons. You promise God every week that you’ll stop sinning, and promise to meet every week to renew the promise you broke the week prior.

Am I missing something??

[JesusPPK]

Can someone tell me how a child can become a deacon in light of what 1 Tim 3 says.

What text did he exgete?

[jamesmorphe]

im surprised he has dentures, rather than implants,
