What Is Rise Zion? Faith, Testimony, and the Call to Build Zion

The world is changing rapidly, and with it comes increasing confusion about faith, truth, and purpose. In every generation, believers are asked to discern the voice of God amid noise, distraction, and doubt. Rise Zion exists to document and preserve lived experiences of faith—modern miracles, personal testimonies, and evidence that God is still actively working in the world today.

Rather than functioning as a news outlet, Rise Zion focuses on something more enduring: witness. Testimony does not expire. Miracles do not lose relevance. Faith, when lived and recorded, becomes a guiding light for future generations.

Faith in Practice: How Believers Live the Gospel Today

Faith is not merely a set of beliefs—it is something practiced, refined, and tested through daily life. Across the world, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints continue to experience moments of divine guidance, protection, healing, and revelation. These experiences rarely make headlines, yet they form the spiritual backbone of a believing people.

Rise Zion seeks to preserve:

• Personal accounts of prayer and answered petitions

• Experiences of spiritual discernment and revelation

• Stories of healing, deliverance, and quiet miracles

• Acts of faith that strengthen families and communities

These accounts testify that discipleship is not abstract. It is lived, often quietly, and always meaningfully.

Testimony, Creativity, and the Expression of Faith

Faith naturally seeks expression. Throughout history, believers have used art, music, and craftsmanship to reflect sacred truths and anchor spiritual memory. Creative expression, when rooted in faith, becomes a form of testimony.

Within the Rise Zion project, creative works are approached not as trends or merchandise, but as reminders—visual, auditory, and symbolic expressions that point hearts back to Jesus Christ.

Creative expressions of faith may include:

• Art that reflects scripture, covenant, and divine encounter

• Music that invites reverence, reflection, and hope

• Symbolic designs that quietly affirm belief and discipleship

These expressions are not replacements for worship, but companions to it—meant to orient the heart toward God in daily life.

Prophecy, Preparation, and the Building of Zion

A central theme of the restored gospel is preparation—both personal and collective. Prophetic teachings consistently invite believers to rise spiritually, live intentionally, and prepare for the fulfillment of God’s promises. The call to build Zion is not theoretical; it is a present responsibility.

Rise Zion approaches prophecy not through speculation or sensationalism, but through application:

• Living with integrity and covenant faithfulness

• Developing spiritual discernment

• Serving others and strengthening communities

• Anchoring belief in Jesus Christ rather than fear

Zion is built first within individuals, then within families, and ultimately within societies aligned with God’s law.

What Rise Zion Is — and What It Is Not

Rise Zion is a faith-based media and testimony archive. It is not a news aggregator. It is not a debate platform. It is not a replacement for official Church communication.

Instead, Rise Zion exists to preserve faithful experience—to ensure that real stories of belief, revelation, and divine intervention are not lost in an age that often dismisses them.

Any creative or material offerings associated with Rise Zion are intended to support this mission by encouraging reflection, reverence, and remembrance—not consumption.

An Invitation to Remember and Record

Faith grows when it is remembered. Testimony strengthens when it is shared. Rise Zion invites individuals to reflect on their own experiences with God and recognize that quiet miracles still shape lives today.

In a world that moves quickly, Rise Zion stands as a record of what does not change: Jesus Christ lives. God speaks. Faith still matters. Zion is still being built.
