[Erik · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is definitely written for a an audience consisting of priesthood holders in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day saints who are striving to live up to their covenants and looking for ways to improve their righteousness. The book presents many doctrines of the priesthood in an organized manner. It was nearly all information that I was familiar with, but I found the book to be very worthwhile. I came away from reading it feeling very inspired to try a little harder. Much the same feeling I have after watching General Conference. I would recommend it to all my male LDS friends.

This is an excellent discussion of the Oath and Covenant of the Prieshood and what a man must do to magnify his callings in the Priesthood. It explains the wonderful blessings in store for all worthy Prieshood bearers.
