New Products: Mormon Self Help Books
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- This fall's new titles include several books
that are meant to help LDS Church members and others help themselves
out of life's most difficult challenges. These include an LDS
billionaire's look at finding balance, a look at homosexuality, and
help with grieving. But to pick up the spirits, we've also included a
new Christmas album.
Perhaps the most under-promoted of this week's titles is "Finding
True Balance" by LDS billionaire James Sorenson. Sorenson is not as
well known as LDS businessmen like Jon Huntsman and J. Willard
Marriott, Jr., but his book should be better promoted given his
success and influence.
Another interesting title is Dr. A. Dean Byrd's look at Homosexuality
both in LDS doctrine and in science. Dr. Byrd takes on a difficult
subject, and tries to provide a book that will help both those who
suffer and their families.
New and recent products:
Finding True Balance by James LeVoy Sorenson
Bookcraft
Book; LDS Publisher; Non-fiction; Mormon Author and Subject $15.95
Billionaire LDS businessman James Sorenson shares his view of how to
achieve balance in our personal lives and social interactions. He
says that "balance is the secret of life," and maintains that those
who have trouble achieving it may "have a mistaken idea of what
balance is. Balance is not something we attain, a plateau we reach, a
destination we arrive at. True balance is continuous, changing, and
creative."
