The Spirit of Revelation

By: David A. Bednar

Narrated by: Susan Bednar

In our rapidly changing world, our need for spiritual guidance has never been greater. As we seek to discern truth amidst the clamor of dissenting voiced in order to worship, minister, and lead our families effectively, we rely on the Spirit's help every day.

"The roles of both the mind and the heart in personal revelation are crucial," writes Elder David A. Bednar, "and no simple formulas or recommended action steps can guide us through this rigorous spiritual process. Indeed, this book is not an attempt to define how revelation works. Rather, it is a witness and a testimony that revelation does work—and in a multitude and variety of ways."

In this landmark book, Elder Bednar outlines several principles of revelation, then provides a host of examples in which we can observe these principles in action for ourselves. As we come to recognize the role of revelation in our lives, we can move forward in confidence that the Lord is guiding our steps. As Elder Bednar writes, "If we are striving to be and become good—not perfect right now, but gradually getting better,...then indeed we can have the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost. We are not 'preparing to receive revelation'; we are 'living in revelation.'"

This is explained in easy to understand, and clarifies a lot about the Doctrine of Jesus Christ. The stories are beautiful, simple but profound in ways that one can apply to all of our lives.

Great book

I loved the family experiences with adversity and how each one was handled by the spirit

The presentation of the stories out to me as the most important part of the book.

I wasn’t crazy about the format of the book being separate stories. I was looking for something that talked of revelation as a book with chapters. But I reflected on the format of the book, and I realized that I got more out of the book this way, then I would’ve The way I wanted it.
