The debate over what characteristics make a great leader have been going on for a a long time. One thing is certain: as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, our view of what makes a great leader is very different than that of most of the world. Our role model for the perfect leader is Jesus Christ, and therefore, we believe that those who lead should look to him for guidance. Utilizing his own experiences and those of leaders he has known, Dr. Lythgoe teaches how to lead in a Christlike way.

As prophet, seer, and revelator, and president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Spencer W. Kimball has spoken frequently on subjects of vital interest to Latter-day Saints in the twentieth century. In Marriage and Divorce, he addresses himself to the problems of divorce and the blessings of marriage and puts them into true perspective. "Marriage is perhaps the most vital of all the decisions and has the most far-reaching effects, for it has to do not only with immediate happiness, but also with eternal joys," he states. This treatise deals with the subject seriously and is sharply to the point. President Kimball points out specific problems in marriage that often lead to unhappiness and eventually divorce. He talks at length about the blessings of temple marriage and the importance of unselfishness and Christlike love in the marriage covenant. And he suggests continued courting and keeping the commandments of God as critical ingredients to the fulfillment of both partners. Marriage and Divorce is adapted from an address delivered to students and faculty at Brigham Young University in the fall of 1976. It should be in the library of every Latter-day Saint!

Writing your life story is something you do out of love and the desire to "tell it like it was." But getting started can be hard. Elaine Cannon here provides suggestions which will make it easier to complete.

Few writings in the Old Testament excite the imagination and spirit more than the writings of Isaiah. Isaiah saw the restoration of the gospel and the work of the Prophet Joseph Smith; he foresaw the coming forth of the Book of Mormon as a marvelous work and a wonder, and observed its miraculous effect upon an unbelieving world; he envisioned the Saints in the tops of the mountains and their temple established above the hills. But above all else, Isaiah bore a mighty testimony of Christ in a voice that comes down through the centuries to this day. Prophets through the ages have admonished their followers to study Isaiah and his writings. Isaiah for Today, examines what is known about Isaiah the man, Isaiah the poet, and Isaiah the prophet.
