The Lord Needed a Prophet

Who got a bald eagle to patrol his garden? Who eventually married the girl whose braids he tied to a tree?

The Lord Needed a Prophet, by best-selling author Susan Arrington Madsen, helps Latter-day Saints both young and old to better understand and love the modern-day prophets of God by showing them that these men were once young, too. The accounts tell about the prophets' families, missions, hobbies, and other experiences that shaped their lives.
