“Laying On of Hairs”

Once I tried to pray away the kinks,
But God told me “expand,” not shrink.
Because while they trace heritage back to sod,
These kinks and these curls trace back to God.
Now as I anoint my own crown with oil,
I trace my priesthood with every coil.

Description

Support writers and artists in our community! Subscriptions go toward contributors, community funds, and sustaining the ongoing efforts of Exponent II. Print subscriptions — our most popular and recommended option — continue a quarterly tradition since 1974 and include a free digital subscription.

A single print issue is typically 48 pages and includes 8-10 personal essays, poetry, and our features: Sabbath Pastorals, Women’s Theology, Artist Interviews, and more. We are extremely proud of the art — all by women and gender minorities along the Mormon spectrum — that works in conversation with the essays, and we use a high-quality, no-waste local printer that highlights the beauty of the artwork. The articles are carefully gathered and arranged to create a narrative from beginning to end. This results in a dialogue within every issue as articles speak to one another and spark new ideas and meanings. What does the magazine experience have to offer that’s worth the cost of a subscription? See for yourself by previewing the magazine here.
