Our Divine Identity

Drawing on identity research and gospel doctrine, Joshua L. Savage argues that our most important choice is which identity we make primary—and that placing 'child of God' above all competing facets changes how we see the world. He introduces practical tools (nine ways of knowing, the Ladder of Inference, ripples, and the rock) to help readers discern truth from error, distinguish binding revelation from changeable policy, and approach difficult Church-history topics with patience and faith rather than losing testimony.

• Reframes faith crises as identity problems—change your primary identity, change how you see everything
• A practical toolkit (nine tools of knowing, the Ladder of Inference) for members who love to think their way through doubt
• Tackles the hardest questions head-on: priesthood ban, polygamy, Book of Abraham—without asking you to leave the Church
• Builds directly on President Nelson's 'Let God Prevail' and 'divine identity' teachings

“I never heard of a man [or woman] being damned for believing too much,” said the Prophet, “but they are damned for unbelief.”

Perfect for a thoughtful Latter-day Saint wrestling with doubts about Church history or doctrine who wants an intellectual framework for keeping faith while sustaining prophets.
