HomeAgain Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Hi ... I've recently come back after being inactive for five years, and I just finished reading Elder Eyring's To Draw Closer to God and Neal A. Maxwell's Not My Will But Thine. I had both of these in my home library. Both were excellent. I thought I'd launch my new foray into the church by actually purchasing a new book. Does anyone have any suggestions? I love to read about the atonement, especially. Thanks! Nicole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tomk Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 There's the "Infinite Atonement" by Tad Callister. Great book on that topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Steuss Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 If you haven't read The Articles of Faith, I think it is one (if not the one) that everyone should read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A great book on the atonement that is not by an apostle is "Great Shall Be Your Joy" by Steven A. Cramer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved Elder Maxwell, and I'll check out the other book you suggested as well. Have a great day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilered Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I am currently reading The Autobiography of Gordon B. Hinkley. What a great inspirational leader he was! I would recommend this book in a heartbeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inthearmsofsleep Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 If you'd love to read about the atonement, I think "Jesus The Christ" by James E. Talmage is a great read if you have the time and patience. Personally, I'm loving it so far (haven't read the whole thing... just started) and I've learned a lot. Some people think it's difficult or too over their head... I'm not sure how you'd take it. I suggest borrowing it : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
