Both Things Are True available now
Kate Holbrook's book, Both Things Are True is available now. Holbrook tests Joseph Smith's observation that "by proving contraries, truth is made manifest". Most aspects of a covenant life are lived in the space between contrary ideas that are individually incomplete. The process is difficult, but we can find our hearts and souls "stretched wide as eternity" (Moses 7:14).
