Nuanced Aspects of Mormonism and How to Make it Work

This page is dedicated to helping Latter-day Saints in a faith transition have a page of resources to delve into where three things could happen.

1.) That you would have a place to deconstruct various issues and be permitted to study messy aspects of Mormonism while still being encouraged towards faith.

2.) To be given healthy way to reconstruct your faith that entails room to stay in Mormonism while also being Authentic

3.) To have a list of resources to share with those who love you who also are orthodox in hope that as they come face to face with the messiness of our history, that they might be willing to give you more room.
