That’s Faith! Category: LDS doctrine Theme: Increasing faith in Jesus Christ Rating: 9 out of 10 Who Might Enjoy This: Pre-teens, teens, adults Reviewed By: Sharon Wiggins I read That’s Faith with my 12 year old son and we both gained a good perspective on faith. The stories relating to each topic are entertaining and easy to understand. I really enjoyed the book from a mother's point of view because I can see it as a useful tool to reinforce the gospel principles taught in the "For the Strength of Youth" pamphlet. I especially liked the worksheet at the end of each chapter to evaluate how you’re doing. I can see using the book as family home evening lessons and working on a particular goal for a week or even for a month. I would make a copy of each goal page and hang it where my children could see it everyday to remind them of the gospel principle they are working on. The book is also a great resource for youth talks in Sacrament meeting. Some of the stories would even be appropriate for Primary sharing time. I'm far from a teenager, but I found it inspiring even for me. I liked that it was easy to read, anecdotal with real life experiences and not at all preachy. Inspirational is the word that best describes it for me. A great read for pre-teens, teens and adults. Sharon Wiggins (To learn more click here).
