About Product: “It is not like a child that I believe in Christ and profess faith in Him, but rather, my hosanna has come through the great crucible of doubt.” —Fyodor Dostoevsky Terryl and Fiona Givens offer insight to Latter-day Saints who have questioned doctrines or practices of the restored gospel, and they offer help and understanding for those striving to support loved ones through times of doubt. The authors explore the assumptions that can contribute to intellectual tension and spiritual turmoil. They help us to see that sometimes questions are shaped by unexamined paradigms, which can “point us in the wrong direction, misdirect our attention, or constrain the answers we are capable of hearing.” As they explain, “The search for truth can become all search and no truth, but with the faith that is open to any answer, we can never be sure what we will learn next.” They illustrate how passing through this refiner’s fire, or crucible of doubt, can lead to even greater faith.

The book is well written, but has definately gone over my head. It wasn't as easy to understand as I thought it would be. My intellect I guess needs major brushing up.
