We should not allow our personal values to erode, even if others think we are peculiar.

Honesty is more than not lying. It is truth telling, truth speaking, truth living, and truth loving.

Being bridled, or yielding obediently to restraint, is necessary for our personal growth and progression.

I feel deeply my responsibility to teach sacred things. I am so aware that the world is changing and will be vastly different from the one I have known. Values have shifted. Basic decency and respect for good things are eroding.

I believe that every person's individual testimony of Jesus as the Christ comes as a spiritual gift. No one can successfully dispute or challenge it because it is so personal a gift to the one to whom it has been given.

Among the other values children should be taught are respect for others, beginning with the child's own parents and family; respect for the symbols of faith and the patriotic beliefs of others; respect for law and order; respect for the property of others; respect for authority.
