I'm 12 and converting to Mormonism, by myself without friends or family, and I go to a Catholic school. All, the kid's at my school swear, date, and all that stuff. But, when they're doing that I'm sitting somewhere else reading the Book of Mormon. I dare to stand alone! :)
Here in 2024, an active US military member seven years now, having fell away from the church, and finding it again two years ago. I wish I took this more serious when I was younger
How awesome you felt inspired! Remember that Mormons are CHRISTIANS. We believe in and follow Heavenly Father & Jesus Christ. The Book of Mormon was another testament of Jesus Christ and is a companion to the Holy Bible.
I dare to stand alone as the Only Mormon in the Family..I have 5 sisters and 2 brothers but none of them are Mormons but me..I dare to fight for what i believe in against to my parents and relatives because i know I am standing for the truth and i am standing with our father in heaven.
He is right beside you I promise. Your situation sounds difficult, but the Lord knows how strong you are. Jesus had to stand alone too, and honestly, sometimes the best people do end up standing alone. Truth and honesty is hard to find, thank you for being an example:)
My father is the only member of their family and their family is consist of 12 he have 10 siblings and I'm bless that my father stand alone and now we are members of the church.
This is such a good and inspiring message. My favorite part is when he says " Dare to be a Mormon, dare to stand alone, dare to have a purpose firm, dare to make it known".
I been come a mormon four years ago it has changed my life l love being a mormon xx Thomas s monson was my hero god Thomas s monson God bless you and your family xx
WhooooAhhhhh! I was a lone Mormon in Basic Training, Advanced Infantry Training, and Jump School to be Airborne. The Gospel, Missionary Experience, and my Church service all enabled me to go from a Private in the US Army to A Warrant Officer in three years. I was with the Rangers and Special Forces, the straight-leg Infantry, a Helicopter Aviator and finally an Intelligence Analyst at the Pentagon. I can attribute all my successes to the Church and all my failures to not living the Gospel.
I love being a mormon no matter what happens. i know that this is the true church of god. I know one day if we all that stand fast and live by the god's laws all of us one day will be with him.
Congrats to you,I also come from a Cathiolic family and I also converted to the Mormon faith.I love the church at all for what it stands for.Stand strong my friend and be a light to this world and be proud to be a Mormon,more importantly be proud to be a Moromn Christian!!!God Bless.
Man I love our prophet Monson, hes got a great sense of humour and he's such a story teller, I get transfixed on what he says. We thank thee O god for our prophet.
I watched this in the youth meeting. I am living in Vancouver, Canada for almost 6 years. Everything is very hard for me, but serminary and the gospel help me a lot. I love my serminary teacher, sister Ward. Jean Ward! You are the best woman and teacher I have ever met.
it was awesome. i've joined the church almost a year ago and my testimony is still as strong as it was. i stand alone all the time, my branch is very small and we only have 6 members of the youth in the whole city populated with 600,000 people. it gets freaking hard. but im proud to be a mormon.
I love President Monson ! He’s so very much missed. I do love President Nelson, just watching this made me miss him. Such a wise great man of God. 🙏♥️🙏
One of my friends is not LDS. He is a great kid, he doesn’t swear, drink, or does bad things. I was telling him about how my brother is was on a mission. I then asked if he goes to church. He said no, but he has been a few times with his grandparents. I then asked him if he would like to go to church with me sometime. He said he would like that. I am glad that, even when I was a fourth grader, I could teach people about the gospel.
Thank you to everyone for being respectful in the comments. I love the Book of Mormon and Bible and I am so grateful to have a prophet on the Earth today.
Such a beautiful talk!! "Dare to Stand Alone", we are never alone when we stand with Our Father in Heaven! :-) STAND YE IN HOLY PLACES AND BE NOT MOVED! loooove the restored gospel!!!
I think this message is for everyone of us, no matter of our religion. Only thing that counts is the personal faith we have. You can be Christian of any denomination, you can be Jewish, you can be Muslim or anything, What ever we believe in, we must stand behind it, keep our standards and live our lives in a faith that God is with us everywhere. For there is only one God who protects us and guides us, and loves us.
I absolutely love this video so inspiring to me and I love the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I can't imagine my life anymore and any other Church or without the church in my life. Best decision I made in my life and I don't regret this decision till this day.
I have been a member of the Church for ao is all my life. My best friend, who is a recent convert, just toold me that this video reminds her of me. It is so hard to be an example, but knowing that I am an good example to everyone around me helps me stay strong. Dare to Stand alone
I saw this many many years ago. I liked it then, but have a COMPLETELY new respect for it now. In Marine Corps boot camp, this is exactly how it was. we had maybe 6 people in our whole company be members of the church. It made me very happy to see more members than just me, I didn't even expect that many if I'm being honest.
Yes, I love everything about the Mormon teachings and Heavenly Fathers' plan of salvation does enables me to be more closer to Him through the Holy Ghost in this life, and in His Kingdom in life yet to come...given that I live up to my covenant...
This is what i've just done done moments ago. Its all i need to walk this mortality. I am ready . should i be the only one left alone so be it. dare stand alone. i feel humbled
I'm the only member of the Church in my family, so it's hard to stand alone. But I know Heavenly Father and other members will pick me up when I am down. I am not alone, even if I am the only one. :)
I remember my first Sunday during basic training in South Carolina. I cried like a baby to be surrounded by fellow LDS soldiers and a lovely Missionary couple that gave us love and support.
love this video and iv been watching Mormon messages all day today. I am 10 and I almost saw Thomas S. Monson when he came to the gilbert temple. But we left the day before he came. I was so bumbed that we left. We live in CA but where moving to Washington state.
This message is always a strength to me as I am a recent convert of almost 2 years since my baptism and I have no family in the church so this is always a beautiful message that lifts me up in times when my faith is challenged and tested. Wonderful message!
there are so many times I wish that I would have stood alone and stood up for my beliefs when I was a youth... now I can only hope to be the example for my girls to do what is right! I LOVE this video. I LOVE our beloved Prophet and his inspiring messages that touch my heart and help me feel God's love and spirit with me always! :-)
I miss President Monson, a bit of trivia he was the mission President for my grandfather on my mom's side. I remember the day he passed away and when I found out, it was a school day and I had just woken up for school. When I went upstairs the tv displayed his date of birth and the day he died as well as a picture of him. I couldn't believe my eyes. Later that day at school during seminary, my seminary teacher talked to us about him.
This video makes me happy an glad not only that but reminds me stand ye in holy places and be not moved until the day of the Lord has come, this makes me think never feel like u are never alone because their be someone standing with u at all times and all things and all places. STAND UP FOR WHAT U BELIEVE AND NEVER BE ASHAMED :):)
I had my first fireside about a week ago.They played this video and I fell in love with it.I've watched it about 15 times.May we dare to be a Mormon,dare to stand alone,dare to have a propose firm,may we make it known
I can tell that this video is different from others in that it was made with an extra measures of the Spirit. In every way, from the actors, to the script I love it!!!!
It's hard to stand alone with the world pushing from all sides all the time, but this is what the Savior wants us to do...it's never easy, but who cares if it's easy or not if it's Jesus who asks us to do it, if asked to stand alone, I will stand alone, knowning that Jesus is standing beside me..."open mine eyes so that I may see the chariots of fire surounding round-about" . -- Great message!
I had a similar experience in boot camp in 1995. The more things change, the more they stay the same. After that, the drill instructors announced where the Mormons met. We ended up baptizing a guy later who attended church with us in boot camp.
I watch this inspiring video all the time. Thank you President Thomas S. Monson. You are an inspiring person. He's right, sometimes we feel alone and there are so many challenges in this world.
Amazing message + powerful music + words from a prophet of God = waterworks from me. EVERY TIME. Darn you, Mormon Messages, for always making me find the nearest Kleenex box!
“And just what do you guys call yourselves?”
“Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, sir!”
All that salt lol. 🧂
I personally think present monson never runs out of good stories
True
I have never seen another mormon outside of church... seeing all of you in the comments make me so happy :,)
When we belong to the Lord's Church, we are never alone. God Bless you!
"Join Us" lds.org
Me too😊
You know monson saved my grandfather, since he was a heart surgeon, he saved him so he may live, and I’m thankful for that
@@spencerpower8985I believe you mean President Russell M Nelson. He is the heart surgeon prophet. And I’m so happy he saved him!
I'm 12 and converting to Mormonism, by myself without friends or family, and I go to a Catholic school. All, the kid's at my school swear, date, and all that stuff. But, when they're doing that I'm sitting somewhere else reading the Book of Mormon. I dare to stand alone! :)
I love monson.he is in heavenly fathers celestial kingdom and deserves to be🙏
President Thomas S. Monson was a great example of doing what's right💛
Here in 2024, an active US military member seven years now, having fell away from the church, and finding it again two years ago. I wish I took this more serious when I was younger

As an atheist in the navy, I found this to be a great message =)
How awesome you felt inspired! Remember that Mormons are CHRISTIANS. We believe in and follow Heavenly Father & Jesus Christ. The Book of Mormon was another testament of Jesus Christ and is a companion to the Holy Bible.
Thats what I love about it. Inspiring messages are inspiring no matter what our convictions are.
Keep learning!
I dare to stand alone as the Only Mormon in the Family..I have 5 sisters and 2 brothers but none of them are Mormons but me..I dare to fight for what i believe in against to my parents and relatives because i know I am standing for the truth and i am standing with our father in heaven.

I'm grateful for the example of Thomas S. Monson. An example he continues to have today in the face of an increasingly wicked world.

Watched this at least 6 times in Sunday school and young women's and seminary, but it never gets old!
O God, the eternal father, thank you, I ask, seek and knock to dare to stand alone, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
President Monson is just the coolest man, I love him.
I'm a athiest but i find this video motivating to anybodies belief!
Man I love our prophet Monson, hes got a great sense of humour and he's such a story teller, I get transfixed on what he says. We thank thee O god for our prophet.
I am thankful to be a Latter-day Saint and for President Thomas S. Monson :)
The message applies for every religion. Dare to stand alone in whatever you believe in. That's what I get out of it.

Thomas S. Monson is awesome. One doesn't even need a testimony to understand his words and feel the love of Christ.
it was awesome. i've joined the church almost a year ago and my testimony is still as strong as it was. i stand alone all the time, my branch is very small and we only have 6 members of the youth in the whole city populated with 600,000 people. it gets freaking hard. but im proud to be a mormon.
I miss president Monson.....
I love President Monson ! He’s so very much missed. I do love President Nelson, just watching this made me miss him. Such a wise great man of God. 🙏♥️🙏

I'm the only member of the Church of my family right now. So just kind of reminds me of it this video.
I a thankful for Thomas S. Monson. If it wasn't for him I would now be lost in darkness. Thank You.
We thank thee oh god for our prophet
I got baptized in January. Nobody in my family knows, and I don't believe that they will approve. So for now, I do stand alone.
May you be in in our hearts for all eternity Thomas S. Monson, 1927-2018, God bless you, and may the spirit swell our hearts with love and joy, amen.
I have been a member of the Church for ao is all my life. My best friend, who is a recent convert, just toold me that this video reminds her of me. It is so hard to be an example, but knowing that I am an good example to everyone around me helps me stay strong. Dare to Stand alone
You know they became besties ever since
We need have faith in Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ,and always believe trough The Atonement Of Jesus Christ,we can be strong again.

I love President Monson.
Dare to "stand alone" as President Monson exemplified - and know that angels stand besides us. Beautiful.
Whatever your convictions may be stand up for them in whatever circumstances you may be in & only true friends will remain with you!
I'm the only member of the Church in my family, so it's hard to stand alone. But I know Heavenly Father and other members will pick me up when I am down. I am not alone, even if I am the only one. :)
46 dislikes?? i can't believe it...this is a very inspiring video..how come there are still people who dislike this.. where is thy soul ?
No way
Oh, how I love his example. He is such a courageous man of faith.
I remember my first Sunday during basic training in South Carolina. I cried like a baby to be surrounded by fellow LDS soldiers and a lovely Missionary couple that gave us love and support.
Standing for what's right doesn't mean we're helpless. Heavenly Father is always there backing us up!!! Ad it also gets easier each time we do it
