What a great talk. We get to know the Bednars as real people with real challenges….thank you!
Love how much fun you have had in your marriage! It is almost as fun as ours.
What a great and fun format to teach the whole world about eternal marriage.
Thank you very much.
What a beautiful message, loved it. Thank you
Thank you! This was so uplifting!!
My husband and I fell in love 60 years ago. I was taken by surprise! I am thankful to know that to truly love one another you must love God first and most! I am eagerly waiting for the day we can be together again. When he was dying he apologized to me, and I quickly said, “what for! I love you!” Perhaps we would have had a wonderful conversation if I hadn’t responded so quickly…I will never know! However, your conversation here helped me to realize there is much more about me to love than there was all those years ago, and I am grateful for that thought. I hope he thinks so too! This has been great fun for me and I thank you. Two sidelines: we used to play Scrabble, but after he finally beat me once he refused to play again! Young, silliness! And “How Firm a Foundation” is my favorite hymn.

Why is it so rare for the leaders to not just read from the teleprompters?
