The third in a trilogy of books relating to the Atonement, The Belonging Heart explores what it means to feel at one with our Father in Heaven, with Christ and his cause, and with our family and friends. This book's theme deals with how the Atonement helps us build our relationships with the Lord and with others, especially family members. As we accept the Atonement, the Lord blesses us with a belonging heart. When we commit our lives to God, we show that commitment by how we give our lives, a day at a time, for the benefit of those we love_by how fully we let ourselves belong to them. The authors explain, 'In this kind of life, a full life of gracious connections with God and with other people, we may find where we really belong_for what we really were made.' This thought-provoking book helps us learn to gain the fullness of mortality by 'always abounding in good works, . . . [that] Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent, may seal [us] his.' (Mosiah 5:15.)

The Broken Heart: Applying the Atonement to Life's Experiences

The Savior taught that he came to earth in part to “heal the brokenhearted.” The Broken Heart begins with the assumption that life is a learning laboratory. In order to learn, we undergo experiences that subject us to sorrow and contamination. Elder Bruce C. Hafen offers hope by teaching that the Savior’s victory can compensate not only for our sins, “but also for our inadequacies; not only for our deliberate mistakes, but also for sin committed in ignorance, our errors of judgment, and our unavoidable imperfections.” The Broken Heart shows how the Atonement is the ultimate source of our forgiveness, our perfection, our peace of mind.

The Believing Heart

This booklet is adapted from a talk given by Elder Hafen to the World Congress of Families, in Switzerland, in 1999. Because this message was prepared for a general audience, it contains broader references and more general language that would be typical for an LDS audience. Both LDS and non-LDS readers will find here a perspective on mothers, marriage, and women that draws on gospel teachings.

The Savior taught that he came to earth in part to “heal the brokenhearted.” The Broken Heart begins with the assumption that life is a learning laboratory. In order to learn, we undergo experiences that subject us to sorrow and contamination. Elder Bruce C. Hafen offers hope by teaching that the Savior’s victory can compensate not only for our sins, “but also for our inadequacies; not only for our deliberate mistakes, but also for sin committed in ignorance, our errors of judgment, and our unavoidable imperfections.” The Broken Heart shows how the Atonement is the ultimate source of our forgiveness, our perfection, our peace of mind.

This book considers the role of the Lord's saving grace in the mortal experience. Comprising collected essays, some written previously and some written especially for this volume, Bruce Hafen writes of the important doctrine of the Atonement. A bestseller in hardback, The Broken Heart will encourage, uplift, and inspire.

The Broken Heart

Deseret Book

In this candid book full of personal stories and rich doctrine, Elder Bruce C. Hafen helps us think and feel in fresh, deep ways about faith, reason, and other elements of a well- anchored testimony-- one that will stabilize, orient, and energize the disciple s quest for that "better world" while "abounding in good works" in this one. The book shows how developing such faith is a process, not an event-- a process that includes overcoming the snares and stagnations that punctuate our life s paths. Elder Hafen here teaches us how we can again feel movement and find joy in the journey, with both anchor and sail so well set that "the furious wind" that blows "upon the face of the waters" actually hastens us "toward the promised land" (Ether 6:5)
