Seven Days for Ruby

When John Phips, a vagabond, stops at the home of Ruby Alder, an elderly widow, and offers to do some work in exchange for a meal, Ruby agrees. But there is something familiar about John - in fact, she once knew a man named John Phips. But is this the same man? And if it is, can she trust him? How much has he changed in fifty years? As Ruby tries to sort out these questions, and as John continues to work for her, she begins falling in love with him. Ruby's son, Will, believes that John Phips will be nothing but trouble. In fact, he has evidence that John is an anarchist who is wanted by the law. Ruby, however, never gives up hope...

The Greatest Quest, by master storytellers Blaine and Brenton Yorgason, traces the lives of four college friends who, during World War II, set off on a grand quest - to find God and his only true church. Adapted from a true story, this dramatic novel explores the biblical evidence of Christ's true church. It also explores the motivations of the four friends: Jamie's single-minded concentration, Joseph's sincere desire, Will's doubt, and Susan's pure hope. As love blossoms between Joseph and Susan, the war separates them and jeopardizes their quest for God. Finally, when Joseph's life hangs in the balance, the truth is revealed in stunning simplicity. The Greatest Quest is the perfect book for those who love truth, and for those who seek it.

The Greatest Quest

In another romp through the Old West, master storytellers Blaine and Brenton Yorgason describes the teenage years of Jons Soderberg (later Bishop Soderberg In The Bishop's Horse Race). Jons has fallen in love with the beautiful Steenie Bergman, wise beyond her years. But Steenie's step-uncle Ben Crost has decided he wants nothing more to do with the Mormons. So he leaves the Salt Lake Valley, taking his family - and Steenie - with him. Steenie, however, has left a note to Jons, hoping he will rescue her and bring her back. Jons has several problems, though, not the least of which is the federal army that is fast approaching Salt Lake City. Still, with the help of crusty old Gideon Monson, a half-wild dog named Lazarus, and a little gray mustang named Perdy, Jons perseveres to find his true love - and learns some lessons about faith in the process.

In Search of Steenie Bergman (Soderberg Series, No 5)

In October 1944, World War II was in full swing. And right in the middle of it, on the tiny Pacific island f Moratai, was William H. Bennett, a young army lieutenant who would someday become a General Authority of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saings --- first as an Assistant to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and then as a member of the First Quorum of the Seventy. "Here Stands a Man" is a novelized form of the experiences of this remarkable man during the years of combat in the Pacific. Brother Bennett not only remained true to his LDS ideals under life-threatening situations, but he also taught lessons of courage, morality, and the Word of Wisdom to the men under his command and to countless others. This book offers remarkable insights into the history of World War II. But more than that, it tells the story of one who was true to his convictions, one who not only served his country well but also became a mighty servant of the Lord.

Religion & Spirituality

What can we expect now that we are in the midst of the last days? What events are prophesied to occur? And how can we prepare ourselves - both physically and spiritually - to survive this tumultuous, exciting time? In Spiritual Survival in the Last Days, authors Blaine and Brenton Yorgason explore statements made by modern prophets concerning the last days. They examine what judgments, disasters, and chastisements we can expect. They then explore how to survive these things by standing in holy places - developing our personal testimonies, repenting, attending the temple, seeking personal revelation, and spiritually unifying our families. They emphasize the importance of following the Lord's living prophets in such matters as food storage, getting out of debt, keeping the Word of Wisdom, and staying sexually pure. "If," the Yorgasons conclude, "as individuals or as a people, we are striving to obtain the Spirit [by] making sincere efforts at repentance and a closer walk with God, then we will be able to survive spiritually during the calamities and glories of the last days."
