2. TECHNOLOGY
SPIRITUAL COMMUNICATION
“Lessons taught in the home by goodly parents
are becoming increasingly important in today‟s
world, where the influence of the adversary is so
widespread… Parents must resolve that teaching
in the home is a most sacred and important
responsibility. While other institutions such as
church and school can assist parents to “train up a
child in the way he [or she] should go” (Proverbs
22:6), this responsibility ultimately rests on the
parents.”
Elder L. Tom Perry
Ensign, November 2012
