Best-Loved Stories, Volumes 1-3

ebook

Volume 1

Here's an outstanding collection of all those inspiring stories from Church history that you've heard and wanted (but couldn't find) for your class. A companion volume to Best-Loved Poems of the LDS People, Best-Loved Stories of the LDS People includes accounts of everything from Joseph Smith's childhood leg operation to David O. McKay's mission experience of learning "Whate'er Thou Art, Act Well Thy Part."

More than 200 other stories are included, such as Joseph F. Smith's encounter with a rough anti-Mormon in "True Blue, Through and Through" and "Fooling a Bulldog," by Parley P. Pratt. You'll find stories about faith, answers to prayer, and revelation, courage, honesty, and many other gospel principles and doctrines. A valuable reference that belongs in every Latter-day Saint home.

Volume 2

Do you need a great story for a family home evening or Sunday School lesson? Would you like a touching story to help communicate the right spirit in your sacrament meeting talk? Are you looking for inspiring true stories to lift your spirits? If so, Best-Loved Stories of the LDS People, Volume 2 is the perfect book for you.

The second volume of stories in the Best-Loved series, this book brings together more than 200 favorite faith-promoting stories not found in Volume 1. Perfect for talks, lessons, and family home evenings, this collection will bring hours of enjoyment to you and your family.

Included are stories under the topics of faith, courage, testimony, family, temple work, prophecy, revelation, prayer, love, and many more. You'll read about Elder Frank Croft, who was cornered by a mob but spared a brutal beating when a letter from his mother fell from his pocket into the hands of the mob leader. You'll learn how Karl G. Maeser experienced the gift of tongues on the night of his baptism into the Church. And you'll be moved by the account of the Haun's Mill massacre and how Amanda Smith was directed by the Lord to heal her son Alma's wounded hip.

Remember the story of Spencer W. Kimball and the seven little boys sitting on the front row in church? How about Charles Dickens's writing about the Mormons aboard the emigrant ship leaving for America? And the first time Mary Elizabeth Rollins Lightner was able to read the Book of Mormon? All these stories are included here, as well as the wonderful humor of J. Golden Kimball and others.

From the martyrdom and persecution in the early days of the Church, to missionary work, to protection and miracles both great and small—from the lives of our latter-day prophets to Primary children, this book brings together stories that will uplift and enlighten. Whether you want to illustrate a point in a lesson, touch hearts in a talk, or remind yourself what it means to be a Latter-day Saint, Best-Loved Stories of the LDS People, Volume 2 is the perfect collection of inspiring and faith-promoting stories. It is a book that belongs in every Latter-day Saint home.

Volume 3

Stories can strengthen as little else can. They can add sparkle to a talk or lesson, or deepen the sense of the Spirit. In some important ways, our very understanding of the gospel is based on stories, true stories that change the lives of those who read them and make them part of their own experience.
