About Product: Published in 1992 by Deseret Book                               

A picture may be worth a thousand words, but a good story can paint its own memorable picture. Such is the case with the stories in this book, stories that will enhance lessons, talks, and family home evenings as they powerfully illustrate the gospel in action.

Here are twenty-nine inspirational stories that describe the workings of the Lord and his gospel in the lives of real people. A young Aaronic Priesthood holder follows spiritual promptings that lead him to the rescue of his critically injured friend. The death of a woman's non-member father brings two families of different faiths together in loving acceptance and fellowship. A group of Latter-day Saints travels to Russia and, through the positive and sometimes tender contacts they make with Russian people, find that the field is indeed white and ready to harvest in that part of the world. An unusual experience at a cemetery helps a woman realize that divine help is available to those who diligently seek to identify their ancestors for temple work. Each story in the book is accompanied by selected quotations from the scriptures, Church leaders, and Church writers, making the narratives even more useful for both teaching and personal study.

Inspiration, trust in God, prayer, miracles, service, humility, personal revelation-these and other gospel principles become more meaningful when we see how they work in everyday life; when we can actually see the gospel in action, as we do in the stories in this book.
