Explaining Mormonism is a thoughtful and wide-ranging discussion of the Mormon belief system. Unlike previous surveys of Latter-day Saint beliefs, Explaining Mormonism not only outlines Mormon doctrines but provides an in-depth exploration of some of their most distinctive doctrines regarding the nature of God, the purpose of life, the value of suffering, and even human sexuality. The author himself is a self-described ""skeptic both by nature and by nurture,"" who nevertheless converted to Mormonism as a young man. He takes the reader on an exciting journey through one of the world's most controversial and perplexing religions.

For Latter-day Saint readers, Explaining Mormonism will aid in strengthening their faith through its in-depth examination of the compelling logic behind the Mormon world view. For the skeptical outsider, it situates Mormon beliefs in a broad context of history, theology, philosophy, and social science and demonstrates Mormonism's ability to provide bold and compelling answers to the most fundamental questions of human existence. And for the serious student of Mormonism, it furnishes insights that only an insider can bring to some of the Latter-day Saints' most peculiar teachings.

Industry Reviews

“Mormonism—despite official discomfort with the term and notwithstanding attempts to replace it, there remains no fully satisfactory substitute for the word—has drawn considerable attention in recent years from popular entertainment, political commentators, and elsewhere. Very often, though, it remains an exotic ‘Other,’ poorly understood and sometimes sensationalized (if not worse). In this intelligent and informed introduction to Latter-day Saint faith and practice, the ‘believing skeptic’ Gregory Dundas performs an important and much-needed service.”
—Daniel C. Peterson, Brigham Young University

“In Explaining Mormonism, Gregory Dundas examines the teachings and practices of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and finds compelling answers to life’s ultimate questions. Drawing on history, theology, and social science in an effort worthy of C. S. Lewis, Dundas offers an illuminating portrayal of a unique Christ-centered world view and the way of life it inspires.”
—Daniel W. Graham, Brigham Young University
