To My Friends: Messages of Counsel and Comfort

Elder Holland is anyways the BEST. This book has helped me to try to come to grips with the loss, in a very tragic way, 3 years ago, of the death of my oldest son. Burying my precious son's remains has almost been too much for me to bare.I saw this book and immediately knew i needed to read it!*Yes* it answered some of the many questions I have had as I have questioned my normally STRONG FAITH. I could hear in my mind, Elder Holland's soothing voice while I stole quiet moments to take it all in, as I continue to think, ponder and pray!

I just ordered three more copies to give as gifts. I loved this book! It is Holland at his best.

What a wonderful book. Very lifting. Read on on one evening. Well written and easy to understand. Recommend to anyone

Very good book

Excellent advice and information

Great book. I originally thought the contents of the book were specifically written for the audience. But it is actually excerpts taken from his many talks and discourses organized and put together by addressing certain topics. I was pleasantly surprised by how many talks I have heard before but loved recounting them

This book is so inspiring I have given it to 2 other people so far & I know that I will give it to others as well. After I read the book I felt that I would be remiss if I didn’t share it with others. Elder Holland articulates the subjects he has chosen in every chapter so well that you walk away with a better understanding and greater appreciation for the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Bought this for my mom who's been experiencing some high anxiety and fear about the future. She loves it, and has marked passages out for herself to read when the world gets to be too much.
