Finding Light in a Dark World
"We challenge the powers of darkness," says James E. Faust, second counselor in the First Presidency of the Church, "when we speak of the perfect life of the Savior and of his sublime work for all mankind through the Atonement. This supernal gift permits us, through repentance, to break away from Satan's grasping tentacles."
Filled with timely counsel, this collection of President Faust's insightful addresses teaches us how to challenge the world's darkness by radiating the light of the gospel. In the first five chapters, President Faust offers his testimony-building witness of Jesus Christ, the Light of the world. Five more chapters teach the illuminating power of example. And in six final chapters, President Faust urges families to seek the light of the gospel and "make our homes stronger so that they will stand as sanctuaries against the unwholesome, pervasive moral dry rot around us." In this book, President Faust, known for his wise, practical counsel, addresses these topics and more:
President Faust's optimistic, faith-filled messages inspire and motivate us. He pleads, "In our constantly changing world, may we continually cling to those things that do not change: to prayer, to faith, to saving covenants, to love of families, and to brotherhood." And to members of the Church who are doing their best to follow the voice of the Spirit, President Faust offers comfort: "I believe that unseen spiritual hosts tend you as you seek to do the will of the Lord. Remember the words of Elisha: 'They that be with us are more than they that be with them' (2 Kings 6:16)."
Reach Up for the Light
The dignity of self is greatly enhanced by looking upward in the search for holiness. Like giant trees, we should reach up for the light....It is the source of inner strength and peace.
So writes Elder James E. Faust in his new book Reach Up for the Light. In this compilation of addresses, Elder Faust focuses his thoughts on reaching for the eternal blessings the Spirit brings through the light of Christ and presents ways to accomplish the essentials of attaining exaltation little by little.
To Reach Even Unto You
Important as programs, meetings, and statistics are in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, they are not the main reasons for the existence of the organization. The ultimate goal of the Church, the one to which all programs and meetings point, is that of "reaching the one," reaching into the heart of each individual member.
To Reach Even Unto You deals with many aspects of this most important goal. It provides insight and advice on reaching family members, associates, and oneself.
