This volume is comprised of discussions given as a series of radio talks which originated in the Tabernacle in Salt Lake City on the weekly Sunday-evening Church program. The subjects dealt with are many and varied, and they reveal the depth of perception and the broad understanding of the man who prepared them. Stephen L. Richards’ rich background is evident in the clarity of judgment he brings to problems perplexing men and women in a world torn by war and strife. His keen insight, his broad sympathies, his outstanding scholarship, his unfailing courtesy and respect for the opinions of others, his great love for the gospel of Jesus Christ, and his testimony concerning its power and mission are all evident in these writings. As such, this volume becomes another outstanding contribution to the literature of Mormonism.
