I was there when he gave this talk during the worst depression of my life. The day before I turned 21. My journey through 7 mental health diagnoses has been refining. At age 48 I claimed Dissociative Identity Disorder to go along with words like Bipolar and Borderline. It's about what happened to me as a child. I want to act and not be acted upon. I am still called to serve.

around the 21:30 mark, his message about "Diversion" perfectly described the algorithmic social world we inhabit nowadays in the 2020's. This is so prophetic. Whether he knew about this in some sort of prophetic vision or not it doesn't matter. Elder Maxwell was so in tuned with the Spirit, this message rings SO true for our day in age. "Diversion is a genuine deprivation, especially if we consider what we might have become, and what more we might have done to help others." Come on now, that's too on the nose for our days. It's too perfect

I'm glad the church has put more of Elder Maxwell talks on YouTube so we can study and review his great words of wisdom. A man of God! I don't believe anyone could hit the dislike button on his talks. If someone did do that, there is something definitely wrong in their life. For me I like every talk from Elder Maxwell. One thing I have learned from all his talks, you must listen very close to each of his words. He goes through so many different topics so fast. I know Elder Maxwell was a true apostle for Jesus Christ ! It would be great if we would be able to listen to Joseph Smith talks. I'm sure his talk would be so great.

Man can I ever relate to this talk. Taking the natural man out of my life is the most serious work I have ever attempted.  It seems everlasting and yet my morning prayers, scripture reading and continual repentance has brought me ever closer to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I know about bondage and am ever si grateful that God is delivering me from drug addiction and my many carnal sins. 40 years away from the church and next month I go to the Temple again after so many years of being lost. I am very grateful for the missionaries who helped make this miracle happen.

Incredible testimony. May GOD BLESS YOU.

I love Elder Maxwell's talks. I always have since I was a teenager.  :)

Since being diagnosed with leukemia,  I have lived listening to Maxwell.

No, I don't say anything about some of the things giving me,by the Holy Ghost and any other servant of God.
But in giving my personal Testimony I believe some things I have been shown, told, only because I knew it was for the benefit of those hearing me.
Love our Apostles here with us and those who have endured till called for more assignments beyond the vail ❤️📖🙏
