Brethren Should Maintain Priorities
Mormon Doctrine / Teachings

?As I meet with priesthood leaders, I often ask about the priorities of their various responsibilities. Usually they mention their important Church duties to which they have been called. Too few remember their responsibilities at home. Yet priesthood offices, keys, callings, and quorums are meant to exalt families (see D&C 23:3). Priesthood authority has been restored so that families can be sealed eternally. So brethren, your foremost priesthood duty is to nurture your marriage?to care for, respect, honor, and love your wife. Be a blessing to her and your children.?

Russell M. Nelson, ?Nurturing Marriage,? Ensign, May 2006, 37
