Robert MacFarlane has written that language does not just register experience, it produces it. Our religious language in particular informs and shapes our understanding of God, our sense of self, and the way we make sense of our challenging path back to loving heavenly parents. Unfortunately, to an extent we may not realize, our religious vocabulary has been shaped by prior generations whose creeds, in Joseph Smith's words, have filled the world with confusion. I make all things new, proclaimed the Lord. Regrettably, many are still mired in the past, in ways we have not recognized.

This is the second book I have listened to by the Givens. This, like "The God Who Weeps" was beautiful, clarifying and thought-provoking. It is quite cerebral, I found that I had to give it my full attention to comprehend the concepts being examined and taught. This book helped me to reframe a lot of the myths that I had formerly absorbed about God, sin and Atonement and showed me that God is more inline with my own experiences and understanding of our relationship with them and how They really are. I love Fiona's reading of the book, she gives the words greater meaning and heart.
