Anonymous Survey regarding Crises of Faith and the LDS Church

To clarify certain terms: The use of the label "Faithful, Practicing" is not meant to imply an absence of any reasonable doubt or questioning, but rather that any past or present doubts and/or questions do not currently conflict with your faith and practice in the LDS church.



"Crisis of Faith" is used as a catch-all for any period of doubt, questioning, exploration, etc. that has put your belief in the LDS Church into serious question. These experiences take all forms and sizes, and are being blanketed by the aforementioned phrase "Crisis of Faith."



The term "Post-Crisis or Transition" is used to indicate that one may have experienced a crisis, change of heart, change of faith or beliefs, etc. in the past and that a decision has since been made. These changes may have been major, or may have been minor (a decision to leave the church may have not felt like a "crisis," for example, but rather a smooth transition, or an inevitability), but the term used here remains the same.



The phrase "Belief in the LDS Church" is used purposely and distinctly from terms like "Faith," "Faith in Jesus Christ," "Faith in the Gospel," etc.
