GREAT, Yet Simple Insight

More Than Simply "Going"

"The issue is not going to church; rather, the issue is worshipping
and renewing covenants as we attend church. The issue is not going to
or through the temple; rather, the issue is having in our hearts the
spirit, the covenants, and the ordinances of the Lord's house. The issue is not
going on a mission; rather, the issue is becoming a missionary and
serving throughout our entire LIFE with all of our heart, might, mind, and
strength."

( David A. Bednar, "Becoming a Missionary," Ensign, Nov. 2005, 45)

That is a good quote. For me working on my testimony is so much more than just physically attending church. Its where my heart has been all week. If I am turned to the Lord all week than of course its important to renew covenants but just to simply go to church to say you went to church isnt enough for me.
