“Courage doesn't mean being free from fear; it means learning to work through fear and speak even when we are afraid.”
Joanna Brooks, The Book of Mormon Girl: Stories from an American Faith

“What do we do with ourselves when we find we have failed to become the adults we dreamed as pious children?”
Joanna Brooks, The Book of Mormon Girl: Stories from an American Faith

“I am not the same kind of Mormon girl I was when I was seven, eight, or eighteen years old.  I am not an orthodox Mormon woman like my mother.  I am an unorthodox Mormon woman with a fierce and hungry faith. ”
Joanna Brooks, The Book of Mormon Girl: Stories from an American Faith
