A witness from God can be relied upon. As you read our thoughts, beliefs, and experiences, we invite you to obtain a witness for yourself. If something we say or imply does not ring true, then you should feel no obligation to accept it. Life is an individual and unique journey with God. Although we can help and encourage each other, we need to be careful not to come between God and another person.

The Message is in the Symbol

Symbols are a very powerful way to communicate a message. Symbols and parables often make known something that is not spelled out in words.


When I saw the LDS July 2015 New Era cover, a message was communicated to me. The Supreme Court’s landmark decision to make same-sex marriage an equal right set in motion “rainbow everything”.

To see the LDS temples portrayed in a rainbow theme, sends the message that LGBT marriages will soon have equal rights within the LDS temples.

    It seemed to me there also might be a message about polygamy if you look at the three human silhouettes on the left. And the two male silhouettes on the right (plus rainbows) conveys a message about gay marriage.
