The only way I can make the world a better place is to make myself a better person. The only way I can make myself a better person is to learn and do the plan which my savior and redeemer has brought to us. Our Beloved Prophet is not a person of worship but when he speaks to the church I can trust him to relay the messages which our Lord wants us to have.

What a better way than to share the gospel as the future of the church.
As we live our lives, we lead the church by:
Reading and Studying the "Book of Mormon"
Focusing on the teachings and doings of the resurrected Jesus Christ 3 Nephi 12-14
To lead by example we heed the greater call by sharing with everyone Chapter 12, Chapter 18 and Chapter 20 of:
"The Sealed Portion, The FINAL Testament of Jesus Christ PDF"
