Queer Mormon Theology: An Introduction by Blaire Ostler
3.0
I love books that challenge the commonly accepted narrative. Whether that be a political, religious, or other narrative. I enjoy challenging my beliefs in uncover deeper truths.
I believe this book has accomplished two things for me. One, it has further opened my mind to possibilities that I would have balked at even 2 or 3 years ago. While there are many things that Baire and I do not see eye to eye on still, I have come to the conclusion that her experience has taught her one thing and mine has taught me other things. I am able to learn from her life experiences in order to pry my closed mind open.
Blaire is one of many many people who have taught me that there is a deeper truth to our Mormon Theology than I ever thought possible. Our theology is queer, and that is something we should embrace.
