- Temples: It’s difficult to overestimate their importance in the Latter-day Saint movement. In fact, it could be said that what is accomplished inside Latter-day Saint temples is at the beating heart of the purposes of the Restoration. In this episode of Church History Matters, we begin a new series exploring the development of Latter-day Saint temple worship. We’re starting at the very beginning and probing such questions as, how early on did Joseph Smith understand the temple-centric nature of his prophetic mission? What is the meaning of the word endowment? Which was the first temple commanded to be built in our day, and which temple was actually built first? And how are we to make sense of what appears to be a failed prophecy in D&C 84 about the building of the Missouri Temple in the first generation of the church?

I was super disappointed in this podcast. Disappointed it was over! Can't wait to hear the next one.
Will you please do a podcast on the life of Porter Rockwell?
Love your podcasts ❤
If you read King Benjamin's address to his people in Mosiah chapter 2 - with your temple eyes - you'll find some fascinating references to what we do in the temple, specifically in the endowment.
I believe there's another possible temple inference in the First Vision. Not sure how to word ot here but I feel that something that occurs in the endowment narrative can be seen as having also occurred in the First Vision experience.

If so much “can” be talked about, why is it still such a shocker when one finally goes to the temple!!!????
Because parents and local leaders need to do better teaching the rising generation from a younger age. And if they didn’t, then put them through a thorough temple prep class with someone who knows what they’re talking about and is confident in talking about ALL they can about the ordinances and covenants, which is more than most are ready to accept
I think most people think going to the temple will be more like going to church. But it is a bit different.
There is a reason that David A. Bednar gave his talk is because there were so many who believed that you couldn’t talk about anything in the temple.

I went into temple prep after the realization that temple participation would be patterned after ancient worship practices, which are incredibly ritualistic and symbolic. With that frame of mind, i was not surprised by anything that occured. In fact, i was heartened to be proven right of what i expected once inside. Those who are put off by temple worship once inside are not centering themselves in ancient context. We need to prepare new temple-goers with ancient temple history more, centered in the plethora of examples of what goes on within the scriptures.
I can't seem to get rid of the advertisements that just won't go away. and when I click on #7 in the series "Temple Worship," it gives me #1 again. Help!!!
