Priesthood Authority in the Family and the Church
Elder Dallin H. Oaks
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Priesthood authority functions in both family and Church, but in the family husband and wife are full partners guided by Christlike principles.
“My father died when I was seven.”
“He roared like a lion, and she cowered like a lamb.”
“Church callings are always temporary, but family relationships are permanent.”
“marriage as a full partnership”
Scriptures
