Suggested Reading

Our reading recommendations are divided into two categories: "Official Literature," and "Approved Literature." "Official Literature" has been produced by the literature committee of Heart t' Heart and has been voted on by the Official Business Assembly at a Heart t' Heart conference, and adopted as official Heart t' Heart literature. "Approved Literature" has been voted on by the Heart t' Heart conference as being consistent with the philosophy of Heart t' Heart and approved for use in Heart t' Heart meetings. This literature differed from "Official Literature in that it has been produced by other people or organizations. Since the scriptures and other literature of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are published by the Church and not Heart t' Heart, they are included under Approved Literature.
