Throughout history, God's covenant people have always participated in ritual worship to remind themselves of God's love and to enable them to walk a pure, holy, and godly path. One of the ancient practices that the Lord restored through Joseph Smith is the building of temples and administering the accompanying ordinances and covenants are necessary for salvation, many- including those who attend the temple regularly- struggle to understand the practice of temple worship.

In this book, Dr. Jennifer Lane draws on scripture and the history of ancient and modern temples, as well as her own experiences, to answer questions that might keep someone from feeling joy in relation to the temple and to share how, in the temple, we can find redemption through Christ. Some of the topics she covers include why we need temples, the requirement of temple recommends, and the importance of covenants and worshipping through ritual. The book also explores the relationship between Freemasonry practices and modern-day temple rituals, the significance of the temple garments, and why the administration of ordinances has changed over time.
