Jim,

Thank you [for sending Beyond Mormonism: An Elder's Story!] My sister will want to read it, too. Maybe between the 2 of us we can get our precious brother to at least *consider* that Mormonism is gravely wrong. My prayer every night is that God will rip Mormonism wide open so all can see the truth. But based on what I read in your book (and what I've come to believe over the years), even the TRUTH isn't enough for them. They are so mired into it socially and emotionally. Arrrggh. Frustrating!

I am so very VERY excited that you climbed out of that bleak hole of darkness! When I read the chapter where your wife was finally won over to Christianity, I burst into tears -- right here at this computer -- after midnight -- not caring that my alarm would rudely be rousing me in just a scant few hours! It was worth it. Best story I've heard in a long time.

Blessings to you and the difference you make.

Warmly, RuthAnn
