PROTECT MY FAMILY!

A friend sent me this link to an article on LDS.ORG in the Newsroom section. I think it would help every latter day saint to understand and promote why we need to stand up for what we believe in. Especially now that we are under attack. Please help me protect my family, and yours!

Same-Gender Attraction

The continuing public debate over same-gender marriage has prompted many questions from the news media, the general public and Church members in relation to the position of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the marriage issue specifically and on homosexuality in general.

The following interview was conducted with Elder Dallin H. Oaks, a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of the Church, and Elder Lance B. Wickman, a member of the Seventy. These senior Church leaders responded to questions from two members of the Church's Public Affairs staff. The transcript of the interview appears below in order to help clarify the Church's stand on these important, complex and sensitive issues.

To read the interview, here is the link! It is long, but an intelligent and enlightening article.

i'm just grateful for the wonderful resources that the church has for members who struggle with same gender attraction but want to keep their covenants instead of living that lifestyle. I have many friends that struggle but use these resources. I am grateful for them and their determination to live God's plan.
