Fresh Experiences Required

Cory H. Maxwell, ed., The Neal A. Maxwell Quote Book , p.88

It is not enough for us to have once been close to the Savior. (So was Sidney Rigdon.) Alma said, if we have once “felt to sing the song of redeeming love,” can we “feel so now?” (Alma 5:26.) Dutiful discipleship creates many happy memories, but it does not make nostalgia a substitute for fresh achievement. (“‘True Believers in Christ,’” p. 136.)
