President Uchtford spoke at UVU Student Assn. yesterday. Below are highlights from the SL Trib article.
"Globalization, with all of its virtues, has one imperfection," Uchtdorf said. "Everyone feels connected, but not responsible." Which is why he said people must maintain high standards of ethics as they go out into a more connected world. He said Latter-day Saints are obligated to deliver people from dangerous routines and guide others toward the future. Uchtdorf spoke in the McKay Events Center at the UVU Student Association's invitation. Uchtdorf said the global crisis created by the collapse of the Japanese Yen in the 1990s and today's subprime mortgages illustrate risks associated with a connected world. While there are risks, they should not be paralyzing, nor should they cause recklessness, Uchtdorf said. Honesty and adhering to the gospel's basic principles will help people embrace an integrated world and not only allow them to succeed, but also to help others.
