“Drawing upon their Mormon traditions and amplifying them in terms of contemporary realities, the contributors to this book address some of the most central concerns of our time regardless of one's religious heritage. Some of the essays are very personal, exploring questions ranging from the loss of a child to the exercise of personal, spiritual gifts. Others examine developments within Mormon culture from the impact of bureaucracy to Mormonism’s relationship to the larger society." —John Sillito
