Stake conference recaps

This post is mainly for me to remember what conference meant to me.

Here are some memorable stories that Elder Bednar and President Ream shared:

Clearing the forest of the vines. First the vines are small and easy to remove, then they get thicker and spine like things hold onto the tree eventually killing the tree. The locus trees roots are wide but not deep causing the trees to topple when confronted with strong wind.

The truck getting stuck in the bog until he does what he is supposed to do (fill the bed with firewood) the truck gets out.

Asking "Dad, when are you going to be baptized?" and his dad answering why do these men who have the priesthood not any different...they are still reminded that they are not doing their duty. It took Elder B. dad 27 years to join the church.

This is not just a great talk, what are you going to DO about it.
