"We live in a world where success seems largely measured by possessions. How the possessions may have been acquired often seems immaterial. Honesty, decency, chastity, and holiness are frequently downgraded as being of lesser worth than possessions. Are our young people enticed to look up or down? . . . What has happened to self-respect and personal integrity? . . . How can Christian belief and morality translate more completely into Christian action?" These are some of the hard issues that Elder James E. Faust of the Council of the Twelve Apostles, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, addresses in Reach Up for the Light. The subjects of Elder Faust's chapters, based on talks delivered in general conferences and other gatherings of the Saints, include †finding the abundant life †the need for balance in our lives, the challenges of economic stress †integrity and self-esteem †a simple, untroubled faith, comfort and hope for families "Many of the standards, values, vows, and obligations that have helped us preserve our spirituality, our honor, our integrity, our worth, and our decency have little by little been assaulted and discarded," Elder Faust observes. "The dignity of self is greatly enhanced by looking upward in the search for holiness. Like the giant trees, we should reach up for the light. The most important source of light we can come to know is the gift of the Holy Ghost. It is the source of inner strength and peace." For all who are searching for answers in a troubled world, Reach Up for the Light provides words of understanding, of counsel, of hope, of peace.
