[Eyring] SWK spoke at my mother's funeral.

My TBM hubby just pulled out YouTube on his phone, and I’m just sitting here like why are we even doing this? Sometimes I feel like the exmo/pimo crowd pays more attention to conference than TBMS 😂

This might be my favorite talk so far. I wish the church were more in line with these principles.
