Stories are told around the world of persons who have received help or comfort from someone they couldn't see—an angel or spirit who guided them or in some other way gave them assistance from beyond the veil.
But just who are these angels? Are they even real?
Although angels are a vital part of Latter-day Saint history and doctrine, their roles and purposes are often misunderstood. In this inspiring volume, author Donald W. Parry discusses in a clear and understandable way what we can learn from the scriptures and from modern prophets and apostles about angels and their missions.
Here you will find answers to such questions as the following:
- What are angels?
- What powers and abilities are angels given?
- How do angels communicate with mortals?
- What are the assigned missions and roles of angels?
- How do angels reveal truth and teach the doctrines of the gospel?
- How do angels minister to and comfort mortals?
- What is the role of guardian angels in the modern world?
When just the thought of someone watching out for us can give us hope in challenging times, to realize that angels minister light, love, and power to us, whether we are aware of them or not, gives us unparalleled understanding, comfort, and peace.
Have you ever thought about angels?
More specifically what powers do they have and how do they help us?
Find answers to these and many other questions about angels in the marvelous book!
Read stories and scriptures of people who have seen and been helped by angels.
Learn what prophets and apostles have to say on the subject of angels.
My favorite chapter was the one that tells how angels can help us overcome addictions, help us gain confidence, and help us during trials and severe hardships. They are there to help bear us up!
I loved this quote:
"Cultivate and be where the Spirit of the Lord is. Make sure that includes your own home or apartment, dictating the kind of art, music, and literature you keep there. If you are endowed, go to the temple as often as your circumstances allow. Remember that the temple arms you with God's power...puts His glory round about you, and gives His angels...charge over you."
We are told that angels are continually surrounding us...
If we are in tune we will feel their light, love and power!
Have you ever wondered if all the stories you hear about angels are real? This book gives wonderful insight to just how real angels are and what a huge part they play in our everyday lives. I have read the scriptures that talk about angels but never got the whole impression till this book put it all together for me. Great READ!
As I read this book and understood better the role that angels play in my life, I felt inspired to live closer to the Spirit and recognize God's hand more fully in my life.

Excellent book
I had some timely experiences as I was reading this book that confirmed all the more for me that I do indeed have angels guarding and protecting me. I learned things from this book that I had never put together in my head before, although I guess I should have known. So grateful to Donald Parry for having organized this information. As he states in the Preface, he went out of his way to simply organize what is already there in Scriptures, as well as what has been stated or written by Prophets and Apostles of the Restored Gospel. Well done!!
