Witness for His Names

When Elder Jeffrey R. Holland was first called to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, he quickly learned that “among the most important responsibilities {he} had was to be one of the ‘special witnesses of the name of Christ in all the world.’” This understanding prompted a habit in his daily scripture study of “jotting down or otherwise noting the references to Jesus’s various names” in the standard works. With study, “the name of Christ was growing and swelling, expanding and emerging into the names of Christ.” In this beautiful new book printed in metallic inks, Elder Holland shares his notes and insights about each of the many names of Christ he has studied in his twenty-five years as an Apostle. Elder Holland promises that “as we study these titles to learn more about who He was and is, we will find ourselves learning more about who we are and what we may become.” In so doing, we will gain a greater understanding of our covenants and how each of us can more fully bear witness of Christ’s holy name.
