Preach My Gospel missionaries act in faith and are guided by the Spirit to help investigators learn truth.

David A. Bednar
Learning by faith and from experience are two of the central features of the Father's plan of happiness. The Savior preserved moral agency through the Atonement and made it possible for us to act and to learn by faith.

All of us now are serving and will continue to serve as lifelong missionaries. We are missionaries every day in our families, in our schools, in our places of employment, and in our communities. Regardless of our age, experience, or station in life, we are all missionaries.
David A. Bednar
Satan does not have a body, and his eternal progress has been halted. Just as water flowing in a riverbed is stopped by a dam, so the adversary's eternal progress is thwarted because he does not have a physical body.
David A. Bednar
As we gain experience with the Holy Ghost, we learn that the intensity with which we feel the Spirit's influence is not always the same.
David A. Bednar
The Lord's truth is not altered by fads, trends or public opinion.

Knowing that the gospel is true is the essence of a testimony. Consistently being true to the gospel is the essence of conversion.
David A. Bednar
Parents should be vigilant and spiritually attentive to spontaneously occurring opportunities to bear testimony to their children. Such occasions need not be programmed, scheduled, or scripted. In fact, the less regimented such testimony sharing is, the greater the likelihood for edification and lasting impact.
David A. Bednar
The basic principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ are simple, and they are universal. Faith in the Savior is the same in Boston as it is in Accra.
David A. Bednar
Let me recommend that periodically you and I offer a prayer in which we only give thanks and express gratitude. Ask for nothing simply let our souls rejoice and strive to communicate appreciation with all the energy of our hearts.

I believe the best test of our integrity and honesty is when we personally enforce in our own lives that which ultimately cannot be enforced.
David A. Bednar
Testimony is the beginning of and a prerequisite to continuing conversion. Testimony is a point of departure it is not an ultimate destination. Strong testimony is the foundation upon which conversion is established. Testimony alone is not and will not be enough to protect us in the latter-day storm of darkness and evil in which we are living.
