Parent-child is the default relationship of church to member—the church as parent, the member as child. In this opening chapter, I propose that differentiation from the church is the most important developmental task we face while living on the inside of the edge.

This book is a breath of fresh air. The different real, lived experiences and perspectives of the voices in the second half of the book are exactly what I wish sacrament talks could be like.
There is a beautiful balance of finding reasons to stay or leave, or at least better understanding those reasons for others. The discussion is very analytical and still validates using our emotions (as many of us are trained to use as a measure for feeling The Spirit).
The introduction is spot on about the audience for this book: those who already have a level of nuance in their beliefs.
