House Of Glory Finding Personal Meaning In The Temple by S. Micheal Wilcox
Details
In commanding the Saints to build the Kirtland Temple, the Lord said, "Organize yourselves; prepare every needful thing; and establish a house, even a house of prayer, a house of fasting, a house of faith, a house of learning, a house of glory, a house of order, a house of God," (D&C 88:119.)
In House Of Glory, S. Micheal Wilcox explains the eternal significance of temple work, and, more than that, he explains the blessings that temple work brings to our ordinary, everyday lives.
He discusses the temple as a house of learning, " the Lord's university," where we can understand the most powerful principles of the gospel and receive inspiration for ourselves and our families. He also explains how to understand the symbolic teaching in the Lord's house and how we can individually hear the voice of the Spirit through those symbols.
He discusses the temple as a house of refuge, where we can go to escape the trials and troubles of the world.
He discusses the temple as the house of order, where we can learn the covenants of the Lord, how to keep them, and how we are blessed as we do so.
He discusses the temple as a house of glory, describing the wonderful spiritual experiences that come to those who serve there, and especially to those who labor for their kindred dead.
Finally, he discusses the temple as a house of thanksgiving, where we come to appreciate the importance and power of the blessings we receive there.
President Howard W. Hunter directed the Saints to "establish the temple of the Lord as the great symbol of their membership and the supernal setting for their most sacred covenants."
House of Glory explains how we can make the temple the focus for every aspect of our lives, how we can find greater joy and meaning in the house of the Lord.
