  43. Karin Cahoon

    Sister Kristin Yee

  44. hvlandjfl0312

    Difficult to pick one. Elder Holland is always memorable and applicable, but Elder Anderson was the one I thought had the most significant for me.
    It was one of his best talks.

    • Shawnie Cannon

      I agree! Elder Andersen’s talk was full of dynamo.

  45. Wally Burzlaff

    My first choice is Elder Christofferson’s address.
    My other choices are Elder Holland and President Eyring.

    • Shawnie Cannon

      Christofferson’s was so good. Holland and Eyring were both keepers as well.

  46. Shawnie Cannon

    I apologize for the poll not functioning – its code was rejected by my current browser settings. It’s the price I paid for this site to load faster on everyone’s devices.

  47. Shawna Wachs

    Elder Holland is my vote.

    • Shawnie Cannon

      Elder Holland was astounding!

  48. Sharon Fagan

    Best conference ever! Very hard to choose one.

    • Shawnie Cannon

      It was a significant General Conference session for our times, to be sure!

  49. Lisa Lindsay

    Bednar is my pick, but it was really hard to choose!

    • Shawnie Cannon

      Bednar is so amazing. I’ll do his talk for sure.

  50. Danene Knowlden

    I don’t think your poll is working. Here are my votes, Browning, Bednar, Andersen

    • Shawnie Cannon

      You are right! I wondered why no one was voting. All three of your choices resonate with me and I plan to do all of them.

  51. Amy

    Bednar! But please also consider Paul. Johnson and Kevin Pearson’s talks too!

    • Shawnie Cannon

      Bednar for sure! I will definitely look at Elders Johnson and Pearson.
