Would you like to share a story about how the gospel affects your life?

Women Seeking Christ — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 05:29:32 +0000

Of course, we would invite you to submit one to this website, either via email, or through our Sharing Our Voices feature. You can do so by answering the following question…
How does the gospel of Jesus Christ help you in your life?

…or by sharing your thoughts on a gospel topic.

But if magazines are more your speed, the Church’s Ensign magazine is looking for submissions as well. See here for a list of topics in which they are particularly interested.

In the June Ensign, you can also find a couple of requests for submissions. One is “Tuning Out and Tuning On” (you can find that on the list above) and the other on the best marriage advice you have ever received (see the bottom of this page).
