Honoring the Priesthood (Revised & Updated Edition)

When you were younger, you used to explored the outdoors and bring strange things into the house (life lizards, toads, or worms). Your mother would probably ask: What is that? Where did you get it? What are you going to do with it?

When you receive the Aaronic Priesthood, you'll bring that home with you too (and your mother will be thrilled). Maybe she'll ask you some similar questions: What is it? Where did you get it? What are you going to do with it? This book tries to answer those questions—what the priesthood is, its origins and purpose, and what you can do to honor it.

This revised edition of Honoring the Priesthood has been updated to include current topics like internet safety and social media use, as well as to reflect changes in programs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. John Bytheway's stories, quotations from Church leaders, and scriptural explanations will help you learn your duty in the Aaronic Priesthood and to prepare for advancement to the higher priesthood.
