Life Of Heber C Kimball PDF Download

A decade before Heber Kimball found The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, his elder brother convinced him to come to Mendon, Ohio to learn the pottery trade. During those years, he met and married the love of his life, Vilate Murray, he befriended Brigham Young, and together he and Vilate found Mormonism. It is unfair to see Heber only in the shadow of JosephSmith and Brigham Young. Students of his life know that Heber leaps out as a major force in the early history of the Church. It was he who the Spirit whispered should open the gospel to Great Britain. As Father of the British Mission, thousands came into the Church as a result of his singular strength and influence. Often Heber would use the potter's wheel as a apt metaphor in his sermons exhorting his listeners to heed the gospel message so they truly lived as Christ's disciples. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints not only put Heber on the potter's wheel, but as a master potter himself he shaped so many lives by his powerful faith and prophetic voice.
