TRUTHS MOST WORTH KNOWING:

An Apostle's Witness

An Apostle's Witness is a rare and precious gift in today's world. And the testimony of President Boyd K. Packer, developed over the course of more than fifty years as a General Authority, is filled with wisdom and understanding.

"All knowledge is not necessarily of equal value," President Packer reminds us. In this timely book, he speaks of truths that "can be crucial to happiness as well as to exaltation." These are truths "most worth knowing," and they are essential to our progress in mortality and throughout eternity.

"The most important truth," writes President Packer, "is, of course, my witness of Jesus Christ." The stories, experiences, and principles he shares in this volume bear powerful witness of that greatest truth of all.

All truth is worth discovering, but some truths are most worth knowing.

In his final witness, President Boyd K. Packer shares vital, eternal truths—truths that can help guide us through our own mortal journey. 

Chapters entitled “Prayer and Promptings,” “How to Survive in Enemy Territory,” and “The Key to Spiritual Protection” address issues that are essential to our faith and well-being in the perilous and turbulent times in which we live. 

President Packer writes of this final witness, “After all the years that I have lived and taught and served, after the millions of miles I have traveled around the world, and with all that I have experienced, I wish to share with you those truths which are the most worth knowing.”
