Leaving the Saints
How I Lost the Mormons and Found My Faith
Book • 2006
In this deeply personal and moving memoir, Martha Beck recounts her journey of leaving the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a faith that had been central to her life.
The book details her experiences teaching at Brigham Young University, where she encountered the Church's silencing of dissidents and masking of truths contradictory to its published beliefs.
Most profoundly, it addresses her history of sexual abuse by one of the Church's most prominent authorities and her path to forgiveness and spiritual transformation.
