As I mentioned during my general conference address Sunday morning, followers of Christ should follow Him by forgoing contention and by using the language and methods of peacemakers. In our families and other personal relationships, let us avoid what is harsh and hateful. Let us seek to be holy, like our Savior.

"I propose an international law that would require any president who decides to declare war to be the first to go to the front lines. They sit in their offices and send 18-year-olds to die... Personally, none of my children will go to war. Why should they go, and for whom?"

A portrait of the Prophet Joseph Smith was added to the International Hall of Honor in Morehouse College’s Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel in Atlanta, Georgia, on Sunday, February 1, 2026.
The hall includes more than 300 oil portraits of global leaders of the international civil and human rights movement. A portrait of the late President Russell M. Nelson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was added to the historically Black college’s hall in 2023. Joseph’s portrait will go between President Nelson and Abraham Lincoln.
One significant way Joseph Smith advocated for basic rights for all came during his presidential run of 1844.
