lessons about General Conference

Earlier this month we listened to the semi-Annual General Conference, where we get to listen to the prophets and apostles speak to us in our day. Fantastic. Thanks to the miracles of our time, we can watch it at home, on our own TV.

So there we were, listening to the apostles. One of them said something that I felt was important for Babs to hear, so I pointed that out to her.

"Yeah, but they're not real," she replied.

Ouch. Her logic is impeccable. We've been trying to teach her that things she sees on TV are stories, make believe, not true. She appears to be listening. Now how do we explain to her that this one thing, this Conference thing is not only real, but incredibly important?
