Author Meets Critics: A Rascal By Nature, A Christian By Yearning: A Mormon Autobiography Join with a panel of friends and fellow writers for a lively exchange about Levi S. Peterson’s just-released autobiography, A Rascal by Nature, A Christian by Yearning. From the book’s first paragraph: “Although I consider myself a religious person, I know very little about God. At first I intended this book to be about wilderness, but as I wrote it, it became an autobiography with many themes. Among these themes are wilderness, my vexed and vexing relationship with Mormonism, my moral and emotional qualities, and my family.”
