Summary

Don't miss an amazing Book of Abraham Workshop in September. We will hold this right when we are getting to that time period in the Come Follow Me program. We will spend three days in Lindon, Utah going over aspects of the Book of Abraham in more detail than we have ever done before. You can attend in person to take full advantage of interactions, or via Zoom. Go to https://www.patreon.com/c/enlightenedgeedu/posts to learn about this opportunity. Don't miss it!

In this episode Kerry and Dr. Andrew Skinner explore one of the most significant sections of the Doctrine and Covenants. They look at how the revelation on the priesthood was based in some specific historical happenings, and at how it begins with instructions about the temple and how the priesthood fits into temple restoration. They look at the role of priesthood in seeing God, in being renewed, and a host of other ways it affects our lives. They discuss how this applies to men and women. They outline the oath and covenant of the priesthood, and how it applies to men and women. They discuss the role of the Book of Mormon. They talk about theosis, or the process of becoming godly or Christlike.

Umphlett, and for all our generous and loyal donors. We are also very grateful for all our Patreon members.
