Teaching Choral Concepts

Review

From South Carolina to the Big Island of Hawaii, from music to healing blessings, Latter-day Saints all over the world have been moved, lifted, and inspired by the Holy Spirit's sacred whispers.

Joy Robinson has collected just a few of these magnificent testimony-building experiences, many written for the first time.

Beginning with just one story from one journal, Sister Robinson collected testimonies from valued friends, members of her own family, and trusted ward members who wanted to share experiences that helped them grow closer to Heavenly Father and become better Christians.

Sister Robinson said, "I testify that all the stories are true . . . I am grateful to those who placed their trust in me, and were willing to share meaningful, and sacred, parts of their spiritual lives."

As you read these pages, may you be lifted, inspired, and touched by the Spirit.
