For President M. Russell Ballard, acting President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, speaking in general conference is “an awesome responsibility.”

“Not that I'm anxious about whether or not I can say what I have prepared, but anxious that what I have prepared will help somebody,” he said.

This Church News video, titled “From the Pulpit,” highlights President Ballard’s general conference reflections.

Participating in a Church News interview from his office at Church headquarters, President Ballard — who gave his first general conference talk in 1976 — said general conference is educational and filled with love “because the spirit of the Lord is there.”

“It's His Church, it has to be His voice that is being sent out to the world through the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve [Apostles], the best way we know how to do it,” he said.

I love this! So excited for another opportunity to hear from the Lord’s Prophet and Apostles this weekend!


“To me, during General Conference is probably as close to heaven as you can get without going there personally.”
It’s uplifting, it’s educational. It’s filled with love because the Spirit of the Lord is there.” - President M. Russell Ballard

Love it!

I love Elder Ballard. Our family prays sincerely for the brethren and sisters well in advance of conference that the spirit will guide them in their preparation. Our love is also with them.

sincere question. Why are the sermons given at general confrence so lacking in drawing from scripture and doctrine and instead more focused on inspirational stories?
