Travis of The Holy Rebellion joins us in remembering Jeffrey R. Holland and the impact he had in so many lives.

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland was a beloved apostle and senior leader of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, known for his powerful testimony of Jesus Christ, his teaching ability, and his lifelong commitment to strengthening the faith of Latter-day Saints. He was born December 3, 1940, in St. George, Utah, and early in life served a full-time mission in Great Britain, an experience that shaped his devotion to missionary work and discipleship.

Before full-time Church service, Elder Holland was deeply involved in Church education. He earned degrees in English and religious education from Brigham Young University and a master’s and Ph.D. from Yale University. He served as Dean of Religious Education, Church Commissioner of Education, and as the ninth president of BYU, where he emphasized gospel learning and helped expand educational opportunities.

In April 1989, he was called as a General Authority Seventy. A few years later, on June 23, 1994, he was ordained a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, one of the highest governing bodies of the Church, charged with being a special witness of Jesus Christ to the world.

As an apostle, Elder Holland’s ministry touched many globally. He frequently spoke at General Conference, sharing heartfelt sermons on Christ’s love, the power of the Atonement, and the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. In 2025, he spoke about the evidence of God’s works and testified of the Book of Mormon’s impact as a spiritual guide.

Elder Holland was set apart as President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles on October 14, 2025, a role in LDS Church governance that places him next in line to lead the Church under its established order of succession when the Church president passes.

Throughout his service, members remembered him for his steadfast testimony of the Savior, his ability to lift the weary with compassionate words, and his unwavering devotion to gospel principles. His life and teachings have been a source of encouragement and dedication for countless Latter-day Saints around the world.

The Christmas Truce of 1914 happened during World War I along the Western Front, when British and German soldiers paused fighting on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. What began with simple gestures—singing carols, shouting holiday greetings across trenches, and placing candles on trees—turned into something remarkable as troops cautiously came out into “no man’s land.” Instead of bullets, they shared food, exchanged small gifts, showed pictures of family, and even played friendly soccer matches. They also used the moment to bury their dead with dignity and mourn together. It wasn’t ordered by generals or governments; it was an act of simple human decency from ordinary soldiers tired of violence. Though the war soon resumed and such truces were discouraged afterward, the event stands as a powerful reminder that even in the darkest times, people can choose peace, compassion, and brotherhood.
