A few years ago, when experimenting with the Internet as a communication devise was just maturing, H. Clay Gorton began fielding gospel questions from his teenage grandchildren and answering them by email. The method was inexpensive and narrowed the distance between family members. But, the correspondence soon spread to others and the Ask Gramps column became a regular feature on several LDS web sites, most recently on LDS Living ( www.ldsliving.com ). In addition, Gorton has archived what has become a vast library of questions and answers on his own sites: ask Gramps archives and askGramps.org. A book followed, then another. Now, Gramps has come full circle back to his roots, answering the questions of teens.
Ask Gramps for Teens covers questions that are really on the minds of LDS young people.
