The Bruce R. McConkie Story: Reflections of a Son

by Joseph Fielding McConkie

Bookshelf eBook

sku b2455

This portrait of Bruce R. McConkie is painted on the canvas of faith in colors as bold as the sermons he preached. In the pages of this biography, written by Elder McConkie's son Joseph, the reader is invited to become acquainted with the man as he was known to his family and closest friends. The book captures something of his humor, the depth of his faith, his love of life and of his dear Amelia, his devotion to the gospel, his discipline, the extent of his suffering, and his endless efforts to mentor his children. No one in the history of the Church has written more by way of testimony of Christ than Bruce R. McConkie. In this work the members of the Church are invited to meet the man whom they have quoted so often.

Bruce R. McConkie has been the ultimate scriptorian in my lifetime, I feel. As a CES teacher, his emphasis on going to the source (the scriptures) to know and teach doctrine has shaped my study and my teaching. His son, the author of this biography, is someone else I watch, listen to, and whose books I read because he is the acorn didn't fall far from the tree. So, to read this book on Bruce R. McConkie, by Joseph Fielding McConkie, was such a treat! The glimpse into the private life and the essence of this great man was like manna to my soul! I know this will be one of the few books that I will re-read and that my family will grow tired of hearing about!
