David O. McKay, ninth president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, served almost sixty-four years in the capacity of General Authority, and his teachings had a profound influence on the Church in the twentieth century. His wisdom can help readers understand how to communicate with our Father in Heaven, cleanse the inner vessel, teach future generations, have stronger marriages and families, and gain a deeper spirituality.
As President McKay taught, "Spirituality, our true aim, is the consciousness of victory over self and of communion with the Infinite. Spirituality impels on e to conquer difficulties and acquire more and more strength. To feel one’s faculties unfolding and truth expanding in the soul is one of life’s sublimest experiences." (Conference Report, October 1969, 8.)
Readers will appreciate this and many more of the prophet’s teachings, many never before published, that have been gathered in timeless reference work.
"My desire in compiling this volume," writes Dr. Mary Jane Woodger, "is to reintroduce the prophetic declarations, beautiful language, and wisdom of David Oman McKay in a user-friendly format. My hope is that the cou8nsel contained in this book will enlighten the understanding, increase the knowledge, and enrich the spirit of every reader."
