Sarah Caton grew up in a small Mormon town in Utah. Her family wasn’t Mormon, though. Her parents were there on a mission to convert Mormons into fundamentalist Baptists.
As a young child, she whole heartedly believed in the family faith and even wanted to become a missionary when she grew up. She taught Sunday School, played the piano for church, and did everything she could to save souls for the Lord. But her main problem was she dared to ask questions and point out inconsistencies whenever she saw them. And then she feared being ostracized if anyone knew she was beginning to have doubts.
In her memoir, Deconstructing- the Memoir of a Preacher’s Daughter, Sarah describes what it was like to be a preacher’s daughter who asked all wrong questions, taking readers on a journey through the struggles she faced and the decisions she made, and ultimately the deconstructing of her faith.
