Nephi's Handbook For A Happy Life

The Book of Mormon prophet Nephi is a hero for Latter-day Saints. He had tremendous faith and never seemed to complain. How did he stay strong with all of the hardships he experienced? How did he maintain a good attitude through all of his trials? The answer is his attitude—his perspective on life.

On Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest, images with quotes are the current craze. People are looking for something to lift their souls—something to bring them encouragement, peace, and hope. With its brief text, inspirational quotes from Church leaders and scholars, and beautiful photographs, this book fills that void for Latter-day Saints. Each excerpt teaches readers how to be more like Nephi and how to maintain hope as they pass through everyday challenges as well as soul-stretching trials.

Nephi’s Handbook for a Happy Life makes a great gift book, but buyers will also want to purchase a copy for themselves to glean from over and over again.
