And we live because Jesus lives.

Across a wide array of religious traditions, temples are sacred, private spaces where observers can worship with other members of their congregation. Temple worship in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, commonly called the Mormon Church, is kept virtually secret from outsiders. And even Mormons themselves might find certain aspects of worship confusing. While respecting the privacy of church members, Jonathan A. Stapley's Holiness to the Lord provides an insightful, fresh overview of Latter-day Saints temple worship.

What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus Christ when we feel stirred up with anger in our families, neighborhoods, wards, workplaces, online communities, and public forums?

Redemption for the dead taps into the deepest purposes of creation and the atonement. It encompasses individuals’ development, the purpose of existence, and the grand scope of God’s love. Revelations in the Doctrine and Covenants illuminate Malachi’s prophecy about Elijah and the turning of humanity’s hearts to one another. Those revelations combined with the lived experience of early Latter-day Saints highlight the joy embedded in the theology about baptisms for the dead. Exploring these early revelations and experiences reminds readers of God’s abundant love and careful attention.

In this introduction to the Doctrine and Covenants, Media Studies scholar Mason Kamana Allred focuses our vision on practices and principles of seeing. He looks at how looking itself is a unique devotional mode in Latter-day Saint belief. His reading of the Doctrine and Covenants collects theological statements about and experiences of spiritual vision and emphasizes how they are often activated through natural vision and earthly commitment in ways that illuminate how to navigate our modern circumstances.

Revelation is the indispensable part of the Restoration. It is central to our existence as the restored Church of Jesus Christ, and it can come to us in a multitude of different ways. Throughout his life, Joseph Smith revealed that speaking is a part of who God is. He laid a foundation for a theology of what this book calls “revelatory abundance.” Common themes and modes of revelation are modeled in the Doctrine and Covenants and practically enacted in the lives of the early Saints.

Law, for many of us, is a scary word. It conjures imposing images—robed judges with imperious gavels or Lady Justice, blindfolded, with her implacable sword and scales. Even in a religious context—perhaps especially in a religious context—many of us associate law instinctively with divine judgment and justice, retribution and eternal punishment. Many of us think of law as an unrelenting standard against which we fall endlessly short. Law, on this view, is the enemy against which we need grace to defend us.

Even as a young boy, Kynan Bridges understood that he was not alone in this world. He sensed the presence of God, but when he rededicated his life to Jesus in 1996, he also encountered the dark side of the spiritual realm firsthand. For several months, he was tormented by nightmares, demonic attacks, and the spirit of fear. Little did he know that such demonic attacks on the mind and body were not unique to him. Many people in the church battle with the realm of darkness, yet they remain silent and therefore stuck in its throes, with no knowledge of how to achieve victory.
