Every Needful Thing is a collection of essays from accomplished academics and professionals who speak about discipleship not only with their minds but also from their hearts. Instead of pushing us to choose between faith and reason, work in the home and the community, love and law, truth within the restored gospel and truth in the wider world of God's children, these writers urge us to seek "anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report" and learn to live in a world of complexity and abundance. Making their specialized work accessible to a general reader, these authors invite us to see through their eyes, to move outside our comfort zones, to live life as a whole person. With humility and openness that belie their significant accomplishments, these authors relate the twists and turns of their intellectual spiritual journeys, giving readers confidence to make their own ways and to pursue "every needful thing" (D&C 88:119).
