Piet Hein was confronted with a dilemma when the Germans first occupied Denmark. He felt he had three choices: do nothing, flee to neutral Sweden, or join the Danish resistance movement. So he joined the resistance. Hein’s greatest weapon was his pen. His grunts were meant to be a spirit-building, coded form of passive resistance. The grooks have many different parts and are marked by irony, paradox, brevity, precise language use, rhythm, and rhyme. They were often satiric in nature.

Author and award-winning poet Bill Wylson believes “the Latter-day Saints are in a type of resistance movement of our own." We are fighting the forces of evil and resisting the temptations of Satan and the world. It would be tragic indeed if we lost our faith in a moment of crisis and threw away the blessings of eternity promised to the faithful. "Faith in Jesus Christ will always be rewarded.” 

In this volume, the author has attempted to cite the words and teachings of Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, apostle of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and to express his ideas in the form of latter-day grooks.
