Many people think that Mormons are a peculiar people, and they are indeed, but that's not a negative thing! In this book, the author asks: Why would or should you choose a Mormon to be your friend, neighbor, employee, employer, child's teacher, community leader, etc? By explaining the true meaning of peculiar, along with basic beliefs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, along with some intertwining of her personal experiences, the author attempts to convince the reader that IF Mormons are truly following the Gospel principles as best they can, they should be judged on their own merits, and the reader will be more apt to consider choosing a Mormon by their individual personalities and personal ethics in whatever sphere they may encounter them. This is a basic explanation of what the Mormons believe and why they can and should be thought of as true Christians. The non-member (or member) who knows just a little about the Mormon beliefs and principles will find this book very helpful to read and understand without having to delve in deep theology.
