The radical transformation of the conservative, parochial Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints into the progressive, international Community of Christ was accompanied by considerable dissent and conflict. In 1991, W.B. "Pat" Spillman and Roger D. Launius published their groundbreaking collection of articles Let Contention Cease, which explored and explained the dynamics of dissent within the RLDS church.

Nearly twenty years later, the work remains the standard reference book on the topic. Now Pat has returned to the subject in order to publish an updated edition of Let Contention Cease.
