Build on past but move on, Elder Holland urges at Y.

I knew Holland and his family in St. George area. This talk makes sense. If anyone has reason to move on and forget the past, it is Holland.

Can anyone direct me to where I can watch Jerry Collands broadcast? Anyone?

What a great talk! It really filled me with hope.

He is quoting 1Cor:13,1, a modern translation for the word charity(agape) is love. This is the pure love of Christ(agape love,or God's love toward us )and it makes more sense.

Honestly, he is the best out of all the G.A at speaking.

As always, Elder Holland's remarks are timely and riveting. As one young man (a non-Mormon) said to me 25 years ago after we had both listened to then-BYU President Holland prior to the BYU-Georgia football game, "Never have I heard so much wisdom and power come across a pulpit." It's the same today as it was then, and I hope every BYU student was listening carefully. Thank you, Elder Holland, for giving so much of yourself on behalf of BYU students and others who will listen around the world.

I met Elder Holland in 1980 when he became President of BYU. He has continued to be an inspiration to everyone within the sound of his voice since then. To Anonymous 2:34 pm, since you claim to know the Holland family since his days in St. George, you must be especially pleased that you are acquainted with such a stellar person who has obtained a Ph.D from Yale, held high administrative positions, including President, at the largest private university in America, and is currently one of 14 living apostles of the Lord Jesus Christ. I wish I had known him in St. George! I'm sure you are a much better person yourself because of your association with such a great family.

Barney,

He is FAR from a perfect human being. He has his enemies.

Wonderful words of counsel. Bravo, Elder Holland.

It is so good to be able to watch the BYU Devotionals through satellite trasmission by Dish Network. Blessed be the people at BYUTV that allow us far from Provo, to be able to enjoy and partake of the talent, wisdom, and style in delivery of Elder Holland's devotional address, to have the opportunity to delight in the divine Light offered to us through his conunsel, to implement it, and to improve our lives! Thank you BYUTV. I loved also President and Sister Samuleson's Devotional the previous week. How fortunate I feel!

I was a little confused on some points. Was any one else scrathing thier head?

According to their website, BYU-tv will re-broadcast
Elder Holland's address of today (Jan 13, 2009)
on Sunday Morning Jan 25 @ 8:00 AM Utah (Mountain).

I had to work today and missed it. Remember >>
Sunday Morning Jan 25the @ 8:00 Mountain Time.

God Bless...

I agree

Excellent counsel for each of us.

Care to amplify a bit? I always hate it when someone drops a mysterious comment without sufficient explanation.

I am glad that our general authorities are emphasizing Christ's teachings regarding the opportunity the atonement provides us to look forward and leave the past behind. I think that some local church leaders have been more oriented toward punishing rather than loving and helping the sinner.

I had to work during the devotional. does anyone know where I can find it? byub.org doesn't have it posted yet. Is there anywhere else?

Everyone said it was amazing.

What a great man and uplifting counsel. Truly this man is a follower of Christ and a great heart. Thank you!
