I got to attend the Worldwide Leadership Training live in the Marriot Center. The meeting was focused solely on missionary work and Elder Holland teased by telling all the missionaries that this will be the biggest Zone Conference they will ever attend. It was really neat and powerful all at the same time. 11 of the 12 Apostles were there as well as all the missionaries currently in the MTC. Thousands of members also attended which merely added to the power in the room.
President Packer's talk really put a lot of deep thoughts into my heart. He taught about teaching. Since he is one of the most profound teachers I have learned from in my life, his counsel was ideal. He said "there are principles that we can learn, among them — perhaps the hardest one to learn — is to live so that you can abandon yourself and not read the script, just depend on the Spirit. I wish there would be a way to promise you that if you studied earnestly and seriously, that you would be better. It won't hurt you, but it won't make you better or even as good as if you trust in the Lord and trust in the Spirit."
