In Elders, McIlvain provides a thought-provoking window into the Mormon faith and missionary experience. (I recently saw the musical The Book of Mormon, which is sort of the perfect counterpoint!!) The two main characters, companion elders assigned to a mission in southeastern Brazil, are polar opposites who battle through countless rejections, temptations to sin, and vastly differing points of view on faith. This book tackles some of the most important questions we all face: faith, friendship, and loyalty, and does it with sensitivity and intelligence. A great read.
