Book Review

Russell M Nelson - Father Surgeon Apostle
Spencer Condie

This was an interesting book. Tara gave it to me for Christmas, I have been reading it off and on ever since. Elder Nelson certainly has been a busy man in his life.

He was a pioneer in the field of open heart surgery. He has learned a number of different languages in his life. He ended up dedicating a large number of countries for the preaching of the Gospel. (At least it seemed like a large number to me.)

He seems to believe he can accomplish many things, as long as he set his will to it. Need to learn Chinese? Just make yourself do it, he did. Need to stay healthy, go ahead and do it. This might not work for everyone, but it seems to have worked for him.

An interesting book. He seems to be a guy who just went about in his life trying to do the right thing. I guess that's how it goes...
