Now What Do You Believe?

Framed by the story of his grandfather's conversion, Gregory R. Wille answers common questions about life after death, the Great Apostasy, the true nature of God, and the requirements of salvation. Contrasting original Christian teachings, medieval corruptions, and doctrines restored through Joseph Smith, he argues that Latter-day Saint beliefs are both reasonable and scripturally sound. Warm and testimony-driven, the book aims to strengthen members and gently invite others to consider the restored gospel of Jesus Christ.

• A convert grandfather's dramatic sacrifice frames a plainspoken defense of the faith
• Answers the hardest questions investigators ask—what about those who never heard of Christ?
• Uses early Christian writers and historians to show how doctrines were lost
• A memorable parable of four sons that finally makes faith, works, and grace click

“If you were to light a candle and place it on the front porch of your home at noonday, how many passersby would even notice it? Probably very few. If, however, you were to light that same candle and place it on your front porch on a very dark, moonless night, how many would notice it? Certainly everyone who walked by.”

Perfect for a Latter-day Saint wanting to strengthen or defend their testimony on doctrinal distinctives, or a curious investigator open to learning why the LDS Church claims a restoration was needed.
