Because God communicates with us through His chosen prophets there have been prophets called in ancient times as well as in these modern days.

In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints there have been 16 prophets called of God, including Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and Thomas S. Monson, but as the poll tool will only allow up to 10 choices I wasn't able to list all of them. If your favorite Latter-day prophet is not listed here please post his name in the comments.


One of my favorite Latter-day prophets is Howard W. Hunter. Although he was only the president of the Church for a short period of time, he was the prophet when I personally came to know for myself that God had called a living prophet upon the Earth during these modern times. While listening to President Hunter speak at a General Conference broadcast I felt the Holy Ghost witness to me that this man was God's chosen prophet.
