Recently my wife and I were watching the news and there was a story about how so many chuches - evangelical churches primarily - were using high-tech methods in their worship services. I initially expressed some disgust that any church would use technology to enhance what should be a reverent worship service and then my wife pointed out that our church has been using technology for years (satelliet broadcasts, etc). So much for my wisdom. As I contemplate the passing of President Hinckley today I think about how influencial he was in bringing the church into the modern age through the use of media and technology. Either well behind the scenes as a young man or in the forefront as Prophet, he has brought our church out into the daylight and the world has benefitted from that exposure. But despite those contributions, his greatest gift to all of us was his perfect example of gentle kindness and love, his witty humor and his great love for the Lord. My 23 year-old son expressed feelings to me last night when he heard the news that Presiedent Hinckley was such a force in his life for most of his life. For all of us who have benefitted by his leadership, we will miss him but he will always be part of us. Thanks for your thoughts Seth.
