Faith Is Not Blind • Bruce Hafen & Marie Hafen
The best kind of faith isn’t blind. It isn’t deaf—or dumb. It doesn’t completely ignore intellect or reason; it complements and works with it. Well-known for their clear teaching style, Elder and Sister Hafen share profound insights on three levels of faith: 1. An idealistic, optimistic, innocent faith, 2. A “realistic” faith filled with questions and complexity, and 3. An informed, mature faith that grows from reconciling our initial simple faith with the complexities that arise, resulting in a solid, abiding faith found in both the heart and the mind. As Oliver Wendell Holmes explained, “I would not give a fig for the simplicity [on] this side of complexity. But I would give my life for the simplicity on the other side of complexity.” This type of faith will see us through both the joys and challenges of life, will help us resolve questions that could otherwise derail us, and will be a solid foundation for a deep and abiding testimony.

Out of The Best Books • S. Michael Wilcox
ETERNAL TRUTHS FROM CLASSIC LITERATURE
From Anne Shirley in Anne of Green Gables to Jean Valjean in Les Misérables, the characters of classic literature have stood the test of time. There are countless reasons to pick up a good book—but is it possible to find eternal truths in secular works? In Out of the Best Books, Latter-day Saint scholar S. Michael Wilcox demonstrates that when it comes to learning gospel principles, truth can shine forth in all good works—and literary classics are a prime example. With underlying lessons on life, faith, and eternal characteristics, secular works can inspire as surely as religious volumes. It is through the experiences of characters like Atticus Finch, Elinor Dashwood, and Ebenezer Scrooge that their authors’ inspired words have the power to create life-changing lessons for readers. Learn to find inspiration, wisdom, and spiritual knowledge in the age-old classics. God is in every good thing you just have to look.
