Key Features-
- This novel-based on Lee Nelson's actual LDS mission to Germany is a pleasing, uplifting journey of self-discovery.
- The plot twists and heart-touching scenes rival any of those found in the author's Storm Testament series.
- The powerful message will serve as motivation for young readers to serve missions themselves.
Elder Spencer W. Kimball laid his warm, strong hands on my head and in a raspy voice, proceeded to set me apart as a missionary. He blessed me that I would be protected from harm, that I would enjoy good health, and that if I kept the commandments and remained faithful I would be instrumental in bringing a thousand souls to the truth.
That promise weighed heavily on young Lee Nelson as he began his mission to Germany in the 1960s, but also served as a motivator for him in accomplishing the work of the Lord.
In this entertaining and uplifting novel of self-discovery, master storyteller Lee Nelson takes us on a journey as riveting and full of unexpected twists as any of his Storm Testament novels.
Reviews-
The methods are unorthodox, but the results are entertaining, inspiring and thought-provoking.
(Lee's) mission experiences are fun to read. Lee's book is a testimony of missionary work and an example of how the Lord accomplishes His goals.
I really enjoyed this book. I read it in two sittings, laughing out loud in places, scratching my head in others...locate a comfortable chair, sit back, and enjoy one of the better missionary tales. I think you'll have a good time with it.
