Bitter fruits of sexual revolution:

• chilren out of wedlock
• children without fathers, with women bearing shared responsibilities
• deficient education with a lack of family
• individual heartbreak from adultery and promiscuity

"By their fruits, ye shall know them"

Elder Uchtdorf

[SLC sandstone temple foundations story]

Every dispensation faces hardship. But the Lord still dwells with His people during those times.

Come, and belong
