“If ever there was a time; if ever there was a season; if ever there was a cause that cried out for men of purpose and men of purity to step forward and draw upon the powers of heaven, it is today.” Robert L. Millet from Men of Valor

Each righteous priesthood holder has the potential to make an enormous difference in his family, in his community, and in the Church. Men of Valor: The Powerful Impact of a Righteous Man (Deseret Book, hardcover, $15.95) raises the warning voice: we must not be naïve; we are at war, and Satan and his minions will do all they can to weaken, distract, confuse, or pollute the agents of the Lord. The “men of valor” prepared and raised up to engage the enemy of our souls must stand and deliver.

Most actively engaged Latter-day Saints are doing better than they give themselves credit for, even as they strive to make important improvements. An ideal gift that honors and praises the efforts of what men are already doing, Men of Valor reminds readers that every righteous man can have a powerful leavening effect on a society whose moral values are rapidly eroding.

Men will appreciate the call to purify their lives and to set themselves apart from things of worldliness. Men of Valor is intended to nudge our consciences, to educate our desires, to call us to higher ground, and to provoke us to glimpse and grasp the power with which we have been endowed.

Men of Valor: The Powerful Impact of a Righteous Man is available at all Deseret Book and other LDS stores and at DeseretBook.com.
