Book Details
Authors: Various
Release Date: 2013
Publisher: Deseret Book
Genre: Missionary Prep

John Bytheway, Laurel Christensen, John Hilton III, Jennifer Platt, Hank Smith, Anthony Sweat and Brad
Wilcox have come together for another FABULOUS book for teens! This time a focus on preparing for a mission...as the age level has been lowered :)


Elder Holland has said "The Lord needs more missionaries and He needs better prepared missionaries."

This book will help with that! Each author has taken a verse from the 4th section of the Doctrine and Covenants and expounded upon it.

Sprinkled throughout the book are QR codes that will link you to some fun video clips...(if you are like me and don't have a "smart phone" they also give you the long-hand link :)

Watch this clip of Laurel Christensen, Brad Wilcox, and some prospective missionaries as they discuss the Christlike attributes that missionaries need to acquire...




The following great chapters are in this book:
1. The Lord's Marvelous Work
2. Give It Everything You've Got
3. I'll Be What You Want Me to Be
4. Thrusting In Our Sickle
5. The Essential Credentials
6. I'm Trying to Be Like Jesus
7. Ask and Ye Shall Receive

Whether you are preparing for a formal mission or just want to be a better everyday member missionary this book is a wonderful read!

The Faith Experiment

I LOVE these little Time Out Classics books.

They are short, sweet, and powerful!

They can quickly give you a boost of endurance to take just one more step towards the goal.

So many wonderful messages are given at Time Out for Women....and now these messages are captured in some wonderful books to be read, pondered, and prayed about.

Laurel Christensen is an AMAZING woman!
This book is her story of losing weight, running a half marathon and in the process learning to have faith....

She in turn teaches us  how to:
Pray with Faith
Think with Faith
Live with Faith

I LOVED LOVED LOVED her thought:
"Don't be the ONE THING standing in YOUR way!"

"Are you ready to try your own faith experiment?"

Armor Up!

If you have a teenager in your life you will WANT them to READ this book :)
