Discipleship grows through daily choices. In Wilford Woodruff’s Way: A Path of Discipleship, Alexia Kay explores how an ordinary person becomes a devoted follower of Jesus Christ. Through Wilford’s experiences, she invites you to reflect on your own journey.
Learn from Wilford Woodruff’s life
Drawing on Wilford’s records, Alexia shares lessons from his remarkable life. She also includes personal stories from her own life and from members of the Wilford Woodruff Papers Project. Together, these experiences reveal how faith can shape our choices and help us face uncertainty.
Along the way, you’ll explore how to:

- Follow Jesus Christ through uncertainty.
- Endure trials with faith.
- Serve others with love.
- Make and keep covenants.

Throughout the book, thoughtful journal prompts encourage you to pause and reflect. As you do, you can recognize how Jesus Christ has already been working in your life. These moments of reflection also invite you to consider where He may be leading you next.
Take the next step
Whether you seek reassurance or a deeper commitment to discipleship, Wilford Woodruff’s Way offers encouragement for the journey. Learn from his example, reflect on your experiences, and keep moving toward Christ.
You don’t have to see the entire path ahead. You simply have to take the next step.

“What a great look at how one devoted man’s influence is continuing to be felt today. In Wilford Woodruff’s Way, Alexia offers us a great example of discipleship and invites us to translate that into our own lives. It’s not a biography or a history, but an application of President Woodruff’s decades of life lessons and faithful service.”
