All Things New

Inigo Montoya’s famous quote captures this book’s thesis well: “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.” This book is about helping Latter-day Saints realize the words we use—sin, grace, faith, judgment, heaven—are freighted with too much baggage from our Protestant inheritance. Drawing from Restoration scripture, the words of prophets, and more literary and religious figures than you can shake a stick at, All Things New is about inspecting our theological foundations and rethinking them in light of Restoration experience.
