Knock

- Confessions of a Mormon Missionary

Bag om Knock

In the midst of the Reagan 80s, a new convert gets sent on a Mormon mission but instead of seeing the world, he gets sent to Utah. There he discovers a world very different from anything he had imagined. Knock is the true story of Comedian Bill Kilpatrick's journey from faith to doubt to something in-between. Along the way, Bill meets the many faces of Mormonism amidst the many Mormon faces that end up on your doorstep. At times irreverent, at times poignant, Knock is the story of one man's search for meaning within the crowded airport terminal of organized religion. It's a challenge to those within the faith to be honest about life. It's also a challenge to those outside the faith to see the humanity engaged within a system that may not be your cup of tea - in a religion at war with tea. Read it on your Kindle, at your local Starbucks. Pull up a stool at your local bar. Sneak a peak of it from behind a pew (Sit behind the tall people). Knock isn't about religion. It's about people who inhabit a religious world. It's not about whether they're right or wrong. It's about what happens regardless, particularly if you thought you were going to France or Russia or South America - anywhere but Utah.
