Unveiling Grace is a book authored by Lynn Wilder, now an ex-mormon and former BYU professor, sharing about her life story of turning away from Mormonism by learning about God and Christianity through the Bible — specifically the Bible’s New Testament. Unveiling Grace film further shares about the book’s content and revealing 7 more mormon’s journey in turning away from Mormonism to God and Christianity.

Watch and listen about minute 50, right at and after Lynn’s words, where the 3 young men testify of their excitement, passion, conviction, unashamedness, and clear understanding of the gospel. They mention statements like:

  1. “Reading his word for the very first time, and being washed by the word … that’s what changed my life … now a personal relationship with Jesus Christ … and there was no more barrier.”

  2. “I was (now) so secure in Jesus … by his work on the cross.”

  3. “Philippians 3:7 … Paul counts all things that he gained in life as rubbish (garbage) compared to Christ.”

  4. “There’s life after the Mormon church … so much better … it’s free in Jesus Christ … because of his love.”

  5. “All what matter’s is Jesus.”

  6. “We have him.”

  7. “It’s worth it.”

  8. “Seek him and I promise you you will find what the true gospel is.”

  9. “God’s word is pure and perfect and I can’t substitute it with anything.”

  10. “Let go of those things that hold you captive.”

  11. “I believe in him and I will never be the same.”
