The Other Side of Heaven
John H. Groberg
Deseret Book Co, 2001
Great read
Really enjoyed this book. It was interesting and inspirational. Also, Groberg has a very understated, matter-of-fact style which works well because the story is so amazing. Highly recommend this book.

Spiritual Survival In the Last Days
Blaine M. Yorgason, Brenton G.
Deseret Book Co, 1990
Don't read this for entertainment....
The Yorgason's, in contrast to their usual upbeat, engrossing story-telling, have written a book that has even more relevance today than when it was first published over 15 years ago.
In an easy to understand, but very sobering style, they speak of the conditions ...

The Great Apostasy
James E. Talmage
Deseret Book Co, 2001
"New Wine In Old Bottles"
Elder James E. Talmage makes a survey of the Latter-day Saint view of the Great Apostasy. Many, in fact all western churches recognize that there was a falling-away from what Jesus Christ taught. The idea of an apostasy was the basis for the Protestant Reformation. ...

This nation shall endure
Ezra Taft Benson
Deseret Book Co, 1977
GREAT BOOK
This is among the most inspiring and informative books I have ever read. I am LDS but this book would be well liked by people of any faith as the principles presented are mainly economic and social in nature. If the precepts of this book were put into practice, our ...

Chieko N. Okazaki

Wonderful author and book
All of Chieko Okazaki's books are wonderful. She talks about finding the important spiritual side of life, as well as contributing to community and doing the best we can. She is uplifting and smart, and very inspirational. I highly recommend all of her books.

Jesus the Christ: A Study of the Messiah and His Mission
James E. Talmage
Deseret Book Co, 1982
Very Clear and Easy to Understand
This book was great for me to read. It gives a step by step reading of Christ, starting with his pre mortal ministry, to his birth, death, and resurrection, and also his missionary work amongst those already dead.
Those who are not LDS (Mormon) may find difficulty ...

The Infinite Atonement
Tad R. Callister
Deseret Book Co, 2000
Best book I've ever read on the subject
I rarely rate religious books this highly - mostly because I lose interest faster than I should. (I guess my loss of interest says more about me than the subject matter.) I took just under 6 months to read this book, ponder its meaning, and research scriptural and ...

Our Search for Happiness
M. Russell Ballard
Deseret Book Co, 2001
~~ESSENTIAL ~~
Anyone, regaurdless of their opinion about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, should read this book; especially before they bash the church. I read this when I was investigating (and bashing the church myself). It is easy to read, to the point, and makes ...

Faith Rewarded: A Personal Account of Prophetic Promises to the East German Saints
Thomas S. Monson
Deseret Book Co, 1996
A church struggles to get past the Iron Curtain.
Reading directly from the pages of a General Authority's (of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) journal is awe-inspiring! Whether Mormon or not, this book is very informative to anyone interested in religion history. Faith Rewarded portrays a church's ...

Here We Stand
Joseph Fielding McConkie
Deseret Book Co, 1995
Made me reevaluate my testimony
As a Mormon, I know how common it is to want to be accepted by mainstream Christianity.
Fortunately, that eternal argument is not the point of this book. Here McConkie defends Mormonism on all of which it claims to found upon. He focuses on the things that separate ...

When We Meet Again (Children of the Promise, Vol. 4)
Dean Hughes
Deseret Book Co, 2001
Writing at its best
Dean Hughes is the best. He has the talent of writing a story that immediately brings you into the thick of it. This is a series of WW2 novels, with 5 volumes being in the first series. You feel for what this family is going through as they try and cope with World ...
