Synopsis
Our fast-paced society loves adventure
and it loves a hero—but what about Latter-day Saint heroes? Are there any? There are plenty!
Heroes
of Faith, True Stories of Faith and Courage, is a collection of twenty-four
riveting stories about people who
rose above difficulties and impossible odds to emerge triumphant. You’ll read
about stalwart men and women who stood firm and valiant in the gospel in spite
of dangerous mobs, flying bullets, physical handicaps, extreme hardships, and
dictatorial regimes.
It's fascinating to read about the exploits of real
heroes and when that hero is acting in accordance with the principles of the
gospel, the adventure is not only thrilling, but inspiring as well. In these
days of increasing trials and tribulation, we can all use some worthy role
models, especially those that strengthen our faith and increase our
testimonies.
These are the words of author Marlene B. Sullivan, and I couldn't have said it any better.
In reading these stories of courage, faith, commitment, fearlessness and heroism, I was touched, amazed, astounded, grateful and spiritually fed. It's a book that will strengthen your testimony and allow yourself to consider the blessing in your life. "Heroes of Faith" is a book you won't want to miss reading.
