A Prayer for My Gay Marriage: My Brief Response

A Prayer for My Gay Marriage: My Brief Response 2017-03-24T22:01:41-06:00 Blair Van Dyke

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

I found this to be a very helpful essay. It is well known that gay couples are very much closeted in Mormonism. This blog post illustrates this couple’s joy and warmth as well as a sense of the magic of their love. Further, I appreciate Laura Root’s insights and expressions of faith. I envy her faith to take Elder Cook’s teachings and apply them in her marriage. I would like to meet her and her wife. So Laura, if you’re ever in Utah Valley, the door of my home stands open and ready to greet you both.

Enjoy the read! Respond or share as you like.
