Product Description
“Fathers are fundamental in the divine plan of happiness,” writes Elder D. Todd Christofferson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. “I want to raise a voice of encouragement for those who are striving to fill well that calling. I wish to focus on the good that men can do in the highest of masculine roles: husband and father.”
Based on his “Fathers” talk, given during the April 2016 general conference, this thoughtful new book contains insights and inspiration about the eternal role of men. Complete with beautiful photography and typography, The Good That Men Can Do uplifts, encourages, and honors husbands and fathers of all ages and walks of life as they share responsibility with our Heavenly Father to nurture His children.
