The Promise of Discipleship


Neal A. Maxwell - 2001
    Maxwell helps us discover the exhilarating and sometimes arduous journey of Christian discipleship, viewing it in the light of knowledge gained through the Restoration. He explains why we must develop the traits of a true disciple, including being longsuffering, yet firm and steadfast, and admonishes us along the road to becoming perfect "in process of time." Underscoring the importance of connecting our behavior with our beliefs, he reminds us that discipleship "cannot be merely intellectual." The Promise of Discipleship provides a deeper, fuller understanding of the commandments that enable us to "live after the manner of happiness," even though we live in a time of commotion.

Anytime, Anywhere


John H. Groberg - 2006
    Kimball called John H. Groberg to serve as a full-time General Authority. Stunned, the only question the newly called Elder Groberg could think to ask was, “Does this mean we will have to leave Idaho Falls?” President Kimball hugged him and said tenderly, “I know exactly how you feel. It is good to love your hometown and your roots, but yes, this will mean moving anytime, anywhere in the whole world, for the rest of your life.” Filled with Elder Groberg’s trademark inspirational stories, this book takes us from Mongolia to Argentina. Fascinating insights into the lives of Saints across the globe, all from a firsthand perspective, testify of the reality of miracles in our day. Few of us will be called upon to serve as General Authorities, but anyone who has made gospel covenants has made the same promise to do the Lord’s will, whatever it may be. Learn how God’s children throughout the world are blessed as they—and we—keep the covenants we have made to serve anytime, anywhere!

Eve and Adam: Discovering the Beautiful Balance


Melinda Wheelwright Brown - 2020
    To understand her mission, we must first recognize Eve’s proper, elevated place — a noble position beside Adam, with a beautiful, balanced interdependence between them. Their example of enthusiastically embracing mortality with all its accompanying challenges provides meaning, encouragement, and direction for each of us along our complex and sometimes thorny paths home.“For millennia,” writes author Melinda Brown, “the world has dismissed the story of Adam and Eve as simply a choice between good and evil, with the obvious conclusion the Eve chose evil. But on much closer inspection, we can discover, and lead others to discover, that the choice was in fact between certainty and uncertainty, security and risk, fear and faith. Eve’s most remarkable choice had everything to do with stagnation versus progress. Hers was a decision to trust God.”With its in-depth examination of the scriptural account Eve and Adam provides an opportunity for deep pondering and reflection on our own mortal experience and how they draw us, step by step, toward exaltation.
