Unveiling Grace by Lynn K. Wilder

"Unveiling Grace" by Lynn K. Wilder, is a first person account of Lynn and her family's experience in the Mormon Church. Written like a novel, the book is composed of three parts-"Mormon Bliss", "Cracks In The Facade", and "Starting Over". Under each part are several chapters detailing different phases of their life as Latter Day Saints and how they were deeply into the Mormon faith. As time went on, however, they became increasingly troubled by the strange Mormon beliefs.

Troubling examples include singing about the founder of the Mormon faith, Joseph Smith, rather than about Jesus Christ.  As is the case in Christian Churches, members often gave testimonies of their faith but unlike most main-stream churches, the testimony of a Mormon focused on Joseph Smith and how they knew he was a prophet of God, etc. In addition, their chapels had "pews but no cross, windows, or art work".

Eventually, Lynn and her family came to discover that Mormonism and "The Book Of Mormon" were not at all like the Bible when they began to read the Bible for themselves. Now, out of the Mormon Church, Lynn tells others about their experience and has a passion to reach those still in the grip of Mormonism.

I found the book very interesting and well written. While it is written like a novel, Lynn shares many facts about the Mormon doctrine and includes portions of Mormon scripture and scripture from the Bible side by side so the readers can see the discrepancies for themselves. I highly recommend the book and the fact that it is presented in story form, would interest readers who normally wouldn't be drawn to that type of subject matter.
