Let's view a portion and learn from young sister Charlotte Nance.

I want to know what do you remember about your baptism?

I felt really, really happy because, well, I just got baptized.

Now I could keep being happy and be a member of the church and get a testimony and as some

would say live happily ever after but it's not that simple. Is there a little bit of work involved?

Let me say what we all pray for, that we'll live happily ever after.

But as we learn from Sister Nance and Sister

Jones, it's not that simple and there's a little bit of work involved.

What can we do to live happily ever after?

The road to eternal happiness depends on life-long conversion

to the truths of the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ. on lifelong conversion

conversion means that we endure to the end,

remaining firm in our commitment to keep the covenants we've made with God no matter what.

Such a commitment can't be conditional or dependent upon the circumstances in our lives. The best way to become a lifelong

convert is to engage with the doctrine of Christ. The doctrine of Christ, faith in the Savior in His

atonement, repentance, baptism, and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, is not intended as a one-time event.

We're invited to get on and stay on the Covenant Path and to participate in the doctrine's specified elements.

We endure to the end by repeatedly and iteratively relying wholly upon the doctrine and merits of Christ.
