Love One Another Despite Differences, Apostles Tell Young Adults

Elder Oaks and Elder Ballard say the Church should be a place of refuge and peace for all

Elder Dallin H. Oaks and Elder M. Russell Ballard, both of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, answered questions from young single adults around the world ages 18 to 30 Sunday night in a live 90-minute Face to Face broadcast. The event originated from the campus of Utah State University in Logan, Utah.

    

We need to love each other “despite the differences that inevitably exist in the world along so many different lines,” Elder Dallin H. Oaks said Sunday. Bridging the gap between us “is the commandment [of Christ] to love one another and help bear one another’s burdens.”

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ “Face to Face” events are live, interactive question-and-answer broadcasts to targeted audiences. Items addressed in earlier “Face to Face” events addressed subjects such as friendship, faith, morality, bullying, prayer and staying positive in a sometimes challenging world.
