Understanding the Atonement of Jesus Christ
What the Atonement of Jesus Christ means for you, in seven short teachings: Russell M. Nelson on why it is for you, Boyd K. Packer on why we need a Mediator, Tad R. Callister on what it overcomes, Dallin H. Oaks on strength when pain remains, Jeffrey R. Holland on not having to walk alone and on the Savior’s triumph over death, and Dieter F. Uchtdorf on the grace He offers.

Quotes in this video
There is no limit to the Savior’s capacity to help you. His incomprehensible suffering in Gethsemane and on Calvary was for you! His infinite Atonement is for you! I urge you to devote time each week—for the rest of your life—to increase your understanding of the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
And so we see that because of His Atonement, the Savior has the power to succor—to help—every mortal pain and affliction. Sometimes His power heals an infirmity, but the scriptures and our experiences teach that sometimes He succors or helps by giving us the strength or patience to endure our infirmities.
I want to lift up my voice and shout praises to the Most High God and His Son, Jesus Christ! The gates of heaven are unlocked! The windows of heaven are opened! Today and forevermore God’s grace is available to all whose hearts are broken and whose spirits are contrite. Jesus Christ has cleared the way for us to ascend to heights incomprehensible to mortal minds.
