I know of nothing that will ease family tensions, that in a subtle way will bring about the respect for parents which leads to obedience, that will affect the spirit of repentance which will largely erase the blight of broken homes than will praying together, confessing weaknesses together before the Lord and invoking the blessings of the Lord upon the home and those who dwell there. – Gordon B. Hinckley, “Conference Report,” April 1963, Afternoon Meeting, p.128
