Two strong admonitions on family prayer in the latest general conference:
Which parent in Book of Mormon times would have let their sons march out
to the front of battle without a breastplate and shield and sword to
protect them against the potentially mortal blows of the enemy? But how
many of us let our children march out the front door each morning to the
most dangerous of all battlefields, to face Satan and his myriad of
temptations, without their spiritual breastplate and shield and sword
that come from the protective power of prayer?
~Tad R. Callister "Parents: The Prime Gospel Teachers of their Children" October 2014 General conference
Parents, help safeguard your children by arming them morning and night
with the power of family prayer. Children are bombarded every day with
the evils of lust, greed, pride, and a host of other sinful behaviors.
Protect your children from daily worldly influences by fortifying them
with the powerful blessings that result from family prayer. Family
prayer should be a nonnegotiable priority in your daily life.
~Richard G. Scott "Make the Exercise of Faith your First Priority" October 2014 general conference
