Divine Theft

About this book

A faith rewritten. A Savior stolen. A system exposed.From the author of Identity Heist comes Divine Theft, a true-crime exposé uncovering Mormonism's multi-billion-dollar power and the stolen Savior at its core. Lindsay McGuire exposes how a persecuted faith transformed into a global empire built on coercion, silence, and control-and the devastating cost of reclaiming truth for one family of the fold.When investigative writer McGuire exposed military abuse and family-court corruption in Identity Heist, readers saw how systems fail those they're meant to protect. In Divine Theft, the lens widens-to the spiritual machine driving those same systems.Through the story of Hope Livingston-a woman whose devotion was weaponized by doctrine-McGuire reveals how the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints became one of the world's most powerful and politically connected religious corporations. Beneath its polished image lies a theology that rewrote the Biblical Christ, redefining salvation and turning obedience into ownership.Blending investigative reporting, survivor testimony, and theological insight, Divine Theft exposes: How spiritual abuse and dark psychology and manipulation operate inside organized religion The financial and political reach of Mormonism's $100-billion empire The human cost of silence for women, children, and families What it means to reclaim faith when God Himself has been rewritten Read it. Question it. And discover what was stolen.
