Review

     The Eye of Faith is one of the most significant “how-to” books in Mormondom! Why? Because it shows how to apply the beliefs and the hopes which motivate us into action!
    
The prophet Moroni, like other Book of Mormon seers, wrote of valiant saints of his day, saying that “there were many whose faith was so exceedingly strong, even before Christ came, who could not be kept from within the veil, but truly saw with their eyes the things which they had beheld with an eye of faith, and they were glad” (Ether 12:19). When Moroni wrote of “the eye of faith,” he wasn’t merely using a figure of speech, he was alluding to a very tangible process which has brought eternal growth to many, many saints, both ancient and modern!
     In this insightful book, Dr. McIntyre combines his scientific skills with his abilities as a professional communicator, teaching readers how to behold with the eye of faith to vividly visualize! Applying the procedures spoken of in the Book of Mormon, he tells his readers how to use visual tools to help their minds receive positive input from their spiritual intelligence within. He teaches them how to effectively foresee the goals which are the objects of their faith, and shows them how to focus on those visual images in their prayers and other personal activities to help them come to pass. He also shows how to overcome and eliminate negative images which can impede their progress.
     This is a carefully prepared, scripturally based book that provides real, workable guidance for turning belief into faith into results into spiritual growth!
