LDS Church President Dallin H. Oaks expressed concern during October 2026 General Conference about what he characterized as "diminishing faith" in Jesus Christ among Latter-day Saints, according to the Salt Lake Tribune's conference coverage. The remarks came during the weekend's sessions and addressed what church leaders see as erosion in members' Christ-centered devotion.

Oaks' comments appeared to reflect institutional concern about member retention and theological drift within the church. The Tribune's conference highlights positioned the statement as one of the weekend's notable themes alongside other leadership addresses.
