LDS BOOK REVIEW: On the Path Home by Henry B. Eyring


ABOUT THE BOOK

"Each time a line of truth comes to us, we get to choose what we will do about it," writes President Henry B. Eyring. "If we try hard to do what that truth requires of us, God will send more light and more truth. It will go on, line after line, as long as we choose to obey the truth."

In this classic collection of quotations from President Eyring, eternal truths are presented a line or two at a time, giving us opportunity to ponder, to learn, and to grow. Accompanied by beautiful illustrations and typography, these gems of thought will spark meaningful discussion, offer a quick uplift, or inspire readers who just want to take a quiet moment to draw closer to the Lord.

REVIEW

Deseret Book knows how to create a beautiful quote book.  Not only is the book full of beautiful words by President Eyring (1st counselor in the presidency for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) but the photographs have clearly been carefully and beautifully chosen to highlight those words.  Gorgeous photographs of outside shots of light along with inside shots of typewriters and people and books and a variety of other things.  This is the sort of book that one turns to for a quick shot of inspiration when time is tight and the heart is weary.  The quotes focus on the journey of life, the truths, light, trials, and tribulations that all people face while here on earth.  A wonderful combination of inspirational words and gorgeous photographs makes this a great gift book.
