About this title

Synopsis

The most difficult questions and circumstances often invite the most profound answers.

Author Daniel K. Judd writes: "The issues I have selected for inclusion in this book are representative of the difficult questions I have grappled with over the last several years in my work as a professor, a therapist, a bishop, a stake president, and a father." Those "hard questions" include: Is divorce the answer to a faltering marriage? Is anger a sin? What justifies and individual or nation to engage in armed conflict? How can I best understand those who are sexually attracted to those of the same sex?

If you’ve worried about questions like these, maybe you’ve wondered if the gospel holds answers. The answer is a resounding yes. With insight, compassion, and deep gospel understanding, Brother Judd draws on the scriptures and the words of living prophets to answer some of the hardest questions of modern life.

Brother Judd writes, "Never has the Church been larger, stronger, or more able, and never have such a variety and complexity of problems confronted us. The questions we ask, the spirit in which we ask them, the answers we receive, and the source from which we receive those answers can have tremendous influence on our making it through the difficult times we face now as well as the difficult times yet to come."

Through his insights, Brother Judd shows that the most meaningful answers to all our questions lie in the counsel of prophets and the miracle of the Atonement.
