Standing Up in a Sit-Down World

ebook

"It is not enough just to be good. You must be good for something. You must contribute good to the world. The world must be a better place for your presence. And the good that is in you must be spread to others." —President Gordon B. Hinckley

Every single good thing you do can make a difference because the power of one person is immense. One person can change a home. One person can change a community. One person can even change the world.

Favorite author and speaker Merrilee Boyack explores the challenge of serve and of standing up for what you believe in. Drawing on personal experiences, real-life examples, truths from the scriptures, and prophetic counsel, Sister Boyack describes how we can be a beacon to those around us as we embrace good works, help those in need, and foster the courage to stand up and speak up for truth goodness, decency, and virtue—even when the whole world shouts at us to sit down.

The Lord is depending on us to stand for truth and righteousness. Will you answer His call?
