F. Enzio Busche

F. Enzio Busche, emeritus member of the First Quorum of the Seventy, was born in Germany in 1930, three years before Hitler's rise to power. Fifteen years later, when World War II ended, Enzio was a prisoner of war, having been drafted into the German army at age fourteen. The war left Enzio with many questions: Is there a God? What is the purpose of life? What happens after death? In time, he learned the answers. "Yearning for the Living God" is a collection of Elder Busche's experiences - both before and after his conversion - and an account of the life-changing awakening that can come to all who search for truth in this world.

My mother got this book for Christmas last year. I have a habit of picking up her books and devouring them, and this was no exception. I sat down the whole day and just read and read. It was amazing.

My mother really sought this book out. He came to speak in New Hampshire many years ago and my mother said that everyone was just walking on clouds for two weeks after. She always wondered if he'd written a book and after much searching, she found this one. Even four months after I read it, I was still digesting it. It sheds so much light on how God works with his children. I can't can say enough about how great it really is...

Lastly, I recently came across this video. Normally I don't like these sorts of things, but since this man had already had an effect on my life, I rather enjoyed it. I didn't roll my eyes once. I have already felt of his sincerity, and seen a bit of the love that those who have worked with him have felt for him. It was nice to hear his actual voice and German accent after reading his book.

Don't worry, it isn't nearly as foreboding as this picture here would seem to portray.
