Endowed with Power

How Temple Symbols Guide Us to Christ's Atonement

By: C. Robert Line

Narrated by: Dallin Bradford

Prepare not only to go to the temple but to be in it as well.

Temples are filled with ancient symbols that point directly to the Atonement. These symbols are all around - in scriptures, cultural motifs, and architectural details.

C. Robert Line, doctor in sociology of religion, offers help to those wanting to make sense of certain aspects of the temple and the endowment. By showing how these symbols all point back to Christ’s Atonement, he aims to enrich and enliven the worship experience that church members can and should expect when they attend the house of the Lord.

Learn to recognize the true meanings of temple symbols, such as the circle in the square motif, the tree of life, and sacred temple clothing, and allow their meanings to bring you closer to Christ.

Excellent resource

Dr. Line does an excellent job balancing both simple and nuanced concepts to better the reader’s understanding of both temple ordinances and their contexts. I read Endowed with Power as a convert seeking to better my understanding and breadth of knowledge of our Lord’s house before receiving my endowment there. I feel prepared as one can be!

Narration was well done. Definitely would recommend this book to anyone with a cursory interest.

Inspiring

this has been one of the most enlightening books on the temple I have ever read.

Enlightening!

Opened my heart to understanding principles I’d never considered. Expanded my vision of the Hope that is found in Jesus Christ.
