Tourist Asks Tour Guide at Westminster Abbey an Important Question
The story is told that one day a tour guide was taking people around Westminster Abbey, probably the most famous church in England. The guide pointed out the ancient Abbey’s beauties, its glorious windows, the graves of kings and queens, the throne on which England’s monarchs are crowned. She went on and on about the poet’s corner, the musician’s corner, and all of the great worthies of the past who were buried or memorialized in that great church. But when she paused for questions, one tourist asked a penetrating one. Said the tourist, "This is a lovely, beautiful, historic church. But has anyone been saved here lately?"
From a sermon by Joseph Smith, Paul and Ananias: From Goodness to Going, 11/25/2009
