Insights from a Prophet's Life

Russell M. Nelson

By: Sheri Dew

Narrated by: Bruce Lindsay

What kind of life preparation does the Lord give the men He will one day call to be prophet? And what are the lessons to be learned from such a life?

From being raised in a home without the foundation of the gospel to the early days of his marriage and the stress of medical school to his last open-heart surgery in China, President Russell M. Nelson took advantage of every opportunity to learn and become more.

In Insights from a Prophet's Life, Sheri Dew takes us through the life of President Nelson from childhood to the current day. This unique collection of life experiences is told in short episodes for the purpose of helping listeners gain their own personal insights. For if we have much to learn from what a prophet says, surely we have much to learn from how a prophet lives

Inspiring on the good things, lacking more the human part.

Great narrative constructing the transformation from a regular member into a prophet performing missionary work and miracles.
But the book lacks the weaknesses and mistakes that show the real human being behind. Yes, it tells about surgery fails and pains. But what really inspires completely is to know as well about the weak points in the character and things to improve. I wanted to know the complete Russell.
Other than that, a great book! it really inspired me to seek for miracles and serve even in hard things.

Great in every way!

Great insights to a great man and great prophet. Kept my attention throughout and learned new things!

Meaningful Insights

I got to know and appreciate President Russell M Nelson in ways I had no idea of before. He is such an amazing, intelligent, hard-working, creative, kind, upbeat, self-sacrificing, loving person. His activities are so far-reaching and varying I finally understood what people mean when they say, “live in the moment.” I counted 12 languages he speaks! From growing up in an inactive family to his professional career to being the prophet of God, what a remarkable man! I will have to listen to this book again there is so much to learn.

Inspiring

Excellent! So inspiring. Grateful that I downloaded this book, because general I don’t read church books. This brought me to tears many times. So grateful for a living prophet today!
