As far as I know, there is no text version of this talk. Hopefully the church will release it at some point, but that is the very reason is why I typed up some of the quotes above.

Thanks for all your comments & feedback. Always good to know somebody’s reading. I’d do it just for myself anyway, but it motivates me more if people are reading

I’m glad checking your facebook was spiritual Nancy, I think yours is great example of how technology can enrich our lives.

Thanks Scott. This talk was one of those gems that people will reference and others will be like “who, what, when?”

Its always nice when an Apostle confirms & explains something you already knew was true, isn’t it? I had a very similar experience to yours as I listened, Brooke. Except my misgivings were split: some from the Spirit & some from my wife.

After listening I felt like I finally had a doctrinal explanation for misgivings from the spirit that I had already felt about the things he talked about. It was so instructive and I could just feel that he was teaching true doctrine as he spoke.

Tev – I agree; many of the talks that have most inspired me and taught me the most were CES talks – and most people don’t ever even realize they were given! This one was no different; and I think your breakdown was right on.
