BORN AGAIN TRUTHS Born into the bondage of the LDS Religion-- Born-again of the Spirit through God's Mercy and Grace "When I studied LDS history and doctrines against the Bible, seeking truth to help my questioning child, I found deceits and occult origins that would lead me out as well. I took my petitions to God, pouring out my heart to Him, and pleading for direction. I could see that I had caused God sorrow. I told Him that I was sorry for following man and promised Him that "from this day forward, it will be me, Jesus Christ, and You, God" (speaking to the Father.) Miraculously, God allowed me to witness my rebirth, as He instantly peeled the bondage I had been under, off of me before my eyes! A grayish matter fell away from me, heavy toward the ground, then dissipated. I heard my lungs fill up with a gasp as God breathed into me. A brightness then immersed me as God filled me with the Holy Spirit. Such joy, peace, and a feeling of freedom I had never known enveloped me! The scenery about me became vivid--the outlines of the mountainous terrain were instantly crisp and clear. I knew that my eyes had been opened; I was forever changed, and there would be no going back. God heard my feeble prayer, has saved me from spiritual blindness, given me new birth, and sealed me His by the Holy Spirit--forever!" -Author Kay is a wife, mother, and grandmother who enjoys family activities, reading, painting, photography, hunting, fishing, and camping.
Katie Langston is an unlikely convert to Christianity. She grew up in a devout, conservative Mormon family in Utah, served a proselytizing mission to Bulgaria when she was 21, married for "time and all eternity" in the Mormon temple when she was 23. From the outside, she had a typical Mormon life. Inside, she was coming apart at the seams. From childhood, she battled "The Questions"—obsessive-compulsive disorder, though she didn't have a diagnosis for it until much later—and lived inside a complex maze of anxiety and fear. This was compounded by Mormonism's emphasis on "worthiness," a designation of acceptability in Mormon practice, that brought her to the edge of despair as a young mother. Then, almost by accident, she had an encounter with the grace of Jesus Christ—and her world changed. In candid but not sensationalized ways, Langston explores little-understood Mormon practices and teachings while grappling with universal human questions such as the nature of faith, the complexity of family, the process of healing, and what it means to truly belong. This book is intended to be a bridge-builder, a way to help non-Mormons understand Mormonism and Mormons orthodox Christianity through the power of personal narrative. Most of all, it is a testimony of Jesus Christ, in the hopes that those who read it—Mormon, Christian, or neither—will catch a glimpse of the spectacular, life-changing grace of God.
A Mormon's Unexpected Journey: Finding the Grace I Never Knew is the personal account of a woman who loved her LDS faith, believed in it and lived for it, yet honestly faced the truth of God's Word. Written as a "theological autobiography," Carma's account is accompanied by the powerful Scriptures that changed her thinking. This journey of discovery written in two volumes, is woven throughout with compelling storylines of Carma's family and her own heartfelt quest when her strong religious convictions were reversed. --from author website.
“You have a call, Elder Wilder.” When missionary Micah Wilder set his sights on bringing a Baptist congregation into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he had no idea that he was the one about to be changed. Yet when he finally came to know the God of the Bible, Micah had no choice but to surrender himself—no matter the consequences. For a passionate young Mormon who had grown up in the Church, finding authentic faith meant giving up all he knew: his community, his ambitions, and his place in the world. Yet as Micah struggled to reconcile the teachings of his Church with the truths revealed in the Bible, he awakened to his need for God’s grace. This led him to be summoned to the door of the mission president, terrified but confident in the testimony he knew could cost him everything. Passport to Heaven is a gripping account of Micah’s surprising journey from living as a devoted member of a religion based on human works to embracing the divine mercy and freedom that can only be found in Jesus Christ.

Courage to be You by Gail Miller,Jason F. Wright Pdf

American Millennials--the generation born in the 1980s and 1990s--have been leaving organized religion in unprecedented numbers. For a long time, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was an exception: nearly three-quarters of people who grew up Mormon stayed that way into adulthood. In The Next Mormons, Jana Riess demonstrates that things are starting to change. Drawing on a large-scale national study of four generations of current and former Mormons as well as dozens of in-depth personal interviews, Riess explores the religious beliefs and behaviors of young adult Mormons, finding that while their levels of belief remain strong, their institutional loyalties are less certain than their parents' and grandparents'. For a growing number of Millennials, the tensions between the Church's conservative ideals and their generation's commitment to individualism and pluralism prove too high, causing them to leave the faith-often experiencing deep personal anguish in the process. Those who remain within the fold are attempting to carefully balance the Church's strong emphasis on the traditional family with their generation's more inclusive definition that celebrates same-sex couples and women's equality. Mormon families are changing too. More Mormons are remaining single, parents are having fewer children, and more women are working outside the home than a generation ago. The Next Mormons offers a portrait of a generation navigating between traditional religion and a rapidly changing culture.

But brain damage leaves her forgetful, confused, and tortured by repressed memories of a deeply troubled childhood, where her innocence was stolen one lie — and one suspicious death — at a time. As the dark, twisted pages unfold, Eve must choose between clinging to the lies that helped her survive her childhood and unearthing the secrets she buried long ago.
