Sarah Allen's Response to the CES Letter

Summary: Sarah Allen is brand new in her affiliation with FAIR. By profession, she works in mortgage compliance and is a freelance copyeditor. A voracious reader, she loves studying the Gospel and the history of the restored Church. After watching some of her friends lose their testimonies, she became interested in helping others through their faith crises and began sharing what she learned through her studies. Sarah originally started posting these rebuttals to the CES Letter on the faithful Latter-day Saint subreddit (r/latterdaysaints) and was invited to repost those rebuttals here on the FAIR website. She’s grateful to FAIR who has given her the opportunity to share her testimony with a wider audience. This page is a compilation of links to each of her posts (reposted serially on the FAIR Blog) responding to the CES Letter. Sarah has begun responding to another document similar to the CES Letter called Letter for My Wife. You can find posts on the FAIR Blog responding to that document here.
