Podcast Episode Outline

Introduction

Doctrine: Covenants: “All saving ordinances of the priesthood are accompanied by covenants. A covenant is a sacred agreement between God and man. God gives the conditions for the covenant, and we agree to do what He asks us to do. God then promises us certain blessings for our obedience. The sacrament allows us to renew the covenants we have made with the Lord.”

Principle: The Sacrament: “Our Savior wants us to remember His great atoning sacrifice and keep His commandments. To help us do this, He has commanded us to meet often and partake of the sacrament.

“The sacrament is a holy priesthood ordinance that helps remind us of the Savior’s Atonement. During the sacrament, we partake of bread and water. We do this in remembrance of His flesh and His blood, which He gave as a sacrifice for us. As we partake of the sacrament, we renew sacred covenants with our Heavenly Father.”

Christlike Attribute: Obedience: “When you received the ordinances of baptism and the endowment, you covenanted that you would keep His commandments. … Obeying the commandments is an expression of love for Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ (see John 14:15).”

This is Sister Dennis’ second general conference address:
- “His Yoke Is Easy and His Burden Is Light” – October 2022 General Conference

What is the speaker inviting me to do, and how might I consider taking action?

Invitations

1: “As my two youngest children were growing, I discovered books that were entertaining and engaging but also used symbolism in their stories. As we read together in the evenings, I loved helping my children understand the symbolism the author was using to teach deeper principles, even gospel principles.”

Search for gospel principles in everything you read.
Questions:
1. Why is it important for our children to understand symbolism?
  - “I knew this was sinking in one day when my younger son was in his early teens. He had started a new book and just wanted to enjoy the story, but his mind kept trying to find the deeper meaning in everything he was reading. He was frustrated, but I was smiling inside.
    
    “Jesus taught through stories and symbols—a mustard seed to teach the power of faith, a lost sheep to teach the worth of souls, a prodigal son to teach the character of God. His parables were symbols through which He could teach deeper lessons to those who had ‘ears to hear.’ But those not seeking the deeper meaning would not understand, just as many who read those same books I read to my children never knew there were deeper meanings and so much more to get out of those stories.” -Sister Dennis
2. Are we actively studying the symbolism of the temple to better understand our work there?
3. What are the health benefits of reading with our children?
4. How do you remember the principles you encounter in the books you read?
5. What gospel principles have you encountered in non-gospel related books?
6. Where did Sister Dennis ‘discover’ these books?
  - “Elder J. Kimo Esplin: Gospel Brings Happiness, Even Amid Tragedy“: “Both Elder and Sister Esplin came from families that prized the written word, so reading has been an important part of their family culture. ‘Every night, the kids knew to put everything away, lay down on the floor, and I would sit and read for an hour,’ Elder Esplin explained. They read classics and Newbery Award-winning books, the Harry Potter series and the Chronicles of Narnia.”
7. Have I ever told you about my family’s daily practice of ‘finding Jesus Christ’?
8. What is a principle? And what are examples of gospel principles?
  - “Increase in Learning” by Elder David A. Bednar:
    - “A gospel doctrine is a truth – a truth of salvation revealed by a loving Heavenly Father. Gospel doctrines are eternal, do not change, and pertain to the eternal progression and exaltation of Heavenly Father’s sons and daughters. … Gospel doctrines answer the question of ‘why?’ … The doctrine of the Atonement explains why Jesus Christ is our mediator and advocate with the Father.”
    - “A gospel principle is a doctrinally based guideline for the righteous exercise of moral agency. Principles are subsets or components of broader gospel truths. Principles provide direction. Correct principles always are based upon and arise from doctrines, do not change, and answer the question of ‘what?’ … Many principles can grow out of and be associated with a single doctrine. … A principle is not a behavior or a specific action. Rather, principles provide basic guidelines for behavior and action. … The first two principles that flow from the doctrine of the Atonement are faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and repentance. The Atonement explains the why, and the principles focus upon the what. Thus, the principles of faith in Christ and repentance provide the necessary guidance so the Atonement can become efficacious in our lives.”
    - “Applications are the actual behaviors, action steps, practices, or procedures by which gospel doctrines and principles are enacted in our lives. Whereas doctrines and principles do not change, applications appropriately can vary according to needs and circumstances. Applications answer the question of ‘how.’ Many applications can grow out of and be associated with a single principle. … Please note the large number of behaviors and specific action steps that grow out of the principle of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ: 1) study the scriptures; 2) pay tithes and offerings; 3) attend Church meetings; 4) partake worthily of the sacrament; 5) accept and magnify Church callings.”
9. Can you articulate which principles are the most important in your life? Can your children?
  - “Principles: Life and Work” by Ray Dalio: “Principles are fundamental truths that serve as the foundations for behavior that gets you what you want out of life. They can be applied again and again in similar situations to help you achieve your goals…
    
    “To be principled means to consistently operate with principles that can be clearly explained. Unfortunately, most people can’t do that. And it’s very rare for people to write their principles down and share them. That is a shame. I would love to know what principles guided Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs, Winston Churchill, Leonardo da Vinci, and others so I could clearly understand what they were going after and how they achieved it and could compare their different approaches. I’d like to know which principles are most important to the politicians who want me to vote for them and to all the other people whose decisions affect me. Do we have common principles that bind us together – as a family, as a community, as a nation, as friends across nations? Or do we have opposing principles that divide us? What are they? Let’s be specific. This is a time when it is especially important for us to be clear about our principles.
    
    “My hope is that reading this book will prompt you and others to discover your own principles from wherever you think is best and ideally write them down. Doing that will allow you and others to be clear about what your principles are and understand each other better. It will allow you to refine them as you encounter more experiences and to reflect on them, which will help you make better decisions and be better understood…
    
    “Whether or not your own principles are systemized/computerized is of secondary importance. The most important thing is that you develop your own principles and ideally write them down, especially if you are working with others…
    
    “I believe one of the most valuable things you can do to improve your decision making is to think through your principles for making decisions, write them out in both words and computer algorithms, back-test them if possible, and use them on a real-time basis to run in parallel with your brain’s decision making.”
10. Do you remember any of the Savior’s memorable parables that taught principles through symbolism? Have you ever written your own parable to teach something to your children?

2: “As we make covenants with God in the house of the Lord, we further deepen our relationship with Him. Everything we do in the temple points to our Father’s plan for us, at the heart of which is the Savior and His atoning sacrifice. The Lord will teach us line upon line through the symbolism of the ordinances and covenants as we open our hearts and prayerfully seek to understand the deeper meanings.”

Seek to understand the deeper meaning of temple covenants.
Questions:
1. What does it mean to ‘open our hearts’?
2. What does it mean to ‘prayerfully seek to understand the deeper meanings’?
  - “Heart of the Matter: What 100 Years of Living Have Taught Me” by President Russell M. Nelson: “When you bring your temple recommend, a contrite heart, and a seeking mind to the Lord’s house of learning, He will teach you.
    
    “Should distance, health challenges, or other constraints prohibit your temple attendance for a season, I invite you to set a regular time to rehearse in your mind the covenants you have made.
    
    “If you don’t yet love to attend the temple, go more often—not less. Let the Lord, through His Spirit, teach and inspire you there. …
    
    “If it were possible for me to sit, knee-to-knee, with every young adult member of the Church, I would plead with you to seek a companion with whom you can be sealed in the temple. …
    
    “If I could speak with each husband and wife who have still not been sealed in the temple, I would plead with you to take the necessary steps to receive that crowning, life-changing ordinance. …
    
    “If I could speak personally with each man or woman who longs for marriage but has not yet found his or her eternal companion, I would urge you to be endowed in the house of the Lord. Begin now to experience what it means to be armed with priesthood power. Seek now to understand what the temple can teach you about parting the veil, receiving revelation, and learning how to draw upon the precious privileges of the endowment.
    
    “To each of those who have made temple covenants, I plead with you to keep your covenants with ever-increasing precision. I plead with you to seek—prayerfully and consistently—to understand temple covenants and ordinances. Spiritual doors will open.
    
    “Elder John A. Widtsoe said it well: ‘The endowment is so richly symbolic that only a fool would attempt to describe it; it is so packed full of revelations to those who exercise their strength to seek and see, that no human words can explain or make clear the possibilities that reside in temple service. The endowment which was given by revelation can best be understood by revelation.’ …
    
    “If you have reasonable access to a temple, I urge you to find a way to make an appointment regularly with the Lord – to be in His holy house – and keep it.”
3. Where can we go to learn more about the symbolism of the house of the Lord?
4. How have temple covenants ‘further deepen[ed] [y]our relationship with [Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ]’?
5. Is it appropriate to write down what we learn after our visits to the house of the Lord?
6. Have Church leaders shared ‘deeper meanings’ that they have come ‘to understand’ in the house of the Lord?
7. How can we better prepare our children for their first visit to the house of the Lord?
8. Why is it important for us ‘to understand the deeper meanings’ of the house of the Lord?
9. Do you believe that ‘the Savior and His atoning sacrifice’ are ‘at the heart’ of ‘everything we do in the temple’?
10. How has the Lord, through the Spirit, taught you ‘line upon line through the symbolism of the ordinances and covenants’ of the house of the Lord?

3: “In the New Testament book of Romans, we read: ‘The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. … Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ.'” (Romans 13:12,14)

When we put on the temple garment we are symbolically ‘put[ting] … on the Lord Jesus Christ’.
Questions:
1. Have you ever considered that as you ‘put on the garment of the holy priesthood each day’ you are ‘put[ting] … on the Lord Jesus Christ’?
  - “As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, those of us who have chosen to make covenants with God in the house of the Lord wear sacred ceremonial outer clothing during temple worship, symbolic of the clothing worn in ancient temple rituals. We also wear the garment of the holy priesthood, both during temple worship and in our everyday lives.
    
    “The garment of the holy priesthood is deeply symbolic and also points to the Savior. When Adam and Eve partook of the fruit and had to leave the Garden of Eden, they were given coats of skins as a covering for them. It is likely that an animal was sacrificed to make those coats of skins—symbolic of the Savior’s own sacrifice for us. Kaphar is the basic Hebrew word for atonement, and one of its meanings is ‘to cover.’ Our temple garment reminds us that the Savior and the blessings of His Atonement cover us throughout our lives. As we put on the garment of the holy priesthood each day, that beautiful symbol becomes a part of us. …
    
    “I am so grateful for the privilege of wearing the garment of the holy priesthood to remind me that the Savior and the blessings of His infinite Atonement constantly cover me throughout my mortal journey. It also reminds me that as I keep the covenants I have made with God in the house of the Lord, I have symbolically put on Christ, who Himself is an armor of light. He will protect me from evil, give me power and increased capacity, and be my light and guide through the darkness and difficulties of this world.” -Sister Dennis
2. What does ‘put[ting] … on the Lord Jesus Christ’ look like in your life?
3. Where can I learn more about ‘the garment of the holy priesthood’?
  - “Sacred Temple Clothing“: “In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, there is no special outer religious clothing in regular Sunday worship services.
    
    “However, many faithful Latter-day Saints wear a garment under their clothing that has deep religious significance. This modest underclothing comes in two pieces and is usually referred to as the ‘temple garment.’
    
    “Some people incorrectly refer to temple garments as magical or as ‘magic underwear.’ These words are not only inaccurate, but also offensive to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. There is nothing magical or mystical about temple garments, and Church members ask for the same degree of respect and sensitivity that would be afforded to any other faith by people of goodwill.
    
    “Temple garments are worn by adult members of the Church who have made sacred promises in the temple to keep God’s commandments and live the gospel of Jesus Christ.”
4. How does ‘put[ting] on the garment of the holy priesthood each day’ help us ‘cast off the works of darkness’?
5. What does ‘put[ting] on the armour of light’ mean to you?
6. We have been commanded to ‘look unto [Jesus Christ] in every thought (Doctrine and Covenants 6:36) – how does the ‘garment of the holy priesthood’ help you do that?
7. How can we more effectively explain to others why we wear the ‘garment of the holy priesthood’ and what it symbolizes?
8. If we want others to respect our decision to wear the ‘garment of the holy priesthood’, do we show respect to others who wear or don’t wear religious clothing of their own?
  - “There is deep and beautiful symbolic meaning in the garment of the holy priesthood and its relationship to Christ. I believe that my willingness to wear the holy garment becomes my symbol to Him. It is my own personal sign to God, not a sign to others. …
    
    “As I keep my covenants and obligations with God, including wearing the garment of the holy priesthood, my very life can become a personal symbol of my love and deep gratitude for my Savior, Jesus Christ, and my desire to have Him with me always.” -Sister Dennis
  - Footnote 39: “We should not seek to judge others’ use of the temple garment.”
  - “His Yoke Is Easy and His Burden Is Light“, Sister J. Anette Dennis, October 2022 General Conference: “The story is told of a man named Jack who had a beloved bird-hunting dog named Cassie. Jack was so proud of Cassie and often bragged about what a skilled dog she was. To prove this, Jack invited some friends to watch Cassie perform. After arriving at the hunting club, Jack let Cassie out to run around while he went inside to check in.
    
    “When it was time to begin, Jack was anxious to show off Cassie’s amazing skills. However, Cassie was acting strangely. She wouldn’t obey any of Jack’s commands as she usually did so willingly. All she wanted to do was remain by his side.
    
    “Jack was frustrated and embarrassed and angry with Cassie; soon he suggested they leave. Cassie wouldn’t even jump into the back of the truck, so Jack impatiently picked her up and shoved her in the kennel. He fumed as those with him made fun of his dog’s behavior all the way home. Jack couldn’t understand why Cassie was misbehaving. She had been trained well, and her whole desire in the past had been to please and serve him.
    
    “After arriving home, Jack began examining Cassie for injuries, burrs, or ticks, as he usually did. As he put his hand on her chest, he felt something wet and found his hand covered with blood. To his shame and horror, he found that Cassie had a long, wide gash right to her chest bone. He found another on her right front leg, also to the bone.
    
    “Jack took Cassie into his arms and began to cry. His shame at how he had misjudged and treated her was overwhelming. Cassie had been acting uncharacteristically earlier in the day because she was hurt. Her behavior had been influenced by her pain, her suffering, and her wounds. It had nothing to do with a lack of desire to obey Jack or a lack of love for him.
    
    “I heard this story years ago and have never forgotten it. How many wounded individuals do we have among us? How often do we judge others based on their outward appearance and actions, or lack of action, when, if we fully understood, we would instead react with compassion and a desire to help instead of adding to their burdens with our judgment?
    
    “I have been guilty of this many times in my life, but the Lord has patiently taught me through personal experiences and as I have listened to the life experiences of many others. I have come to more fully appreciate the example of our dear Savior as He spent so much of His time ministering to others with love.”
9. What blessings have you received for ‘put[ting] on the garment of the holy priesthood each day’?
10. Is it really that important to ‘put on the garment of the holy priesthood each day’?

4: “If you have not yet done so, I invite you to choose a deeper relationship with God by making covenants with Him in the house of the Lord. Study the talks of our prophet (including the beautiful teachings in the footnotes of his talks, which most conference talks have). He has spoken repeatedly about covenants for years and especially since becoming President of the Church. Learn from his teachings about the beautiful blessings and increased power and capacity that can be yours through making and keeping covenants with God.”

Study what President Nelson has taught about temple covenants.
Questions:
1. In addition to President Nelson’s general conference addresses, what other resources are available to help us understand what President Nelson has taught about covenants?
  - “First Chapters of ‘Teachings of President Russell M. Nelson’ Manual Released“: “Chapter 8 relates President Nelson’s experiences learning the importance of the Abrahamic Covenant in his life. He explained he was not ‘raised in a gospel-centered home’ but was baptized at age 16 along with his siblings. ‘As I matured and began to understand the magnificence of Heavenly Father’s plan,’ he recalled, ‘I often said to myself, ‘I don’t want one more Christmas present! I just want to be sealed to my parents.’ That longed-for event did not happen until my parents were past 80, and then it did happen. I cannot fully express the joy that I felt that day, and each day I feel that joy of their sealing and my being sealed to them.'”
    - ‘Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Russell M. Nelson’ – Chapter 8: The Abrahamic Covenant‘
  - “Accessing God’s Power through Covenants“, Sister J. Anette Dennis, 2024 Worldwide Relief Society Devotional: “As our prophet has taught, when we enter a covenant relationship with God, our relationship with Him becomes much closer than before our covenant and He will never abandon that relationship. He will never tire in His efforts to help us, and we will never exhaust His patience with us. We are joyfully bound together through an everlasting covenant that we have chosen to enter into with Him.
    
    “This knowledge should give us great peace and assurance as we go through the difficulties and heartaches of this life. God’s priesthood power will amplify our spiritual gifts and talents, it will give us strength beyond our own to carry the heavy burdens of mortality, and it will give us the peace and power we need as we face the physical, emotional, and spiritual earthquakes of our lives.
    
    “This power that flows from our covenants can bless our lives in so many different ways because it is God’s power! Mothers can draw on His power for added capacity and energy to meet their daily challenges and more clearly hear the Lord’s direction to help and guide their children. Those who have lost a loved one through death or divorce can call on His power to feel comforted and carried. God’s power can also give hope to those who have trouble seeing any light in their lives because of the very difficult life circumstances they face.”
2. How does ‘making covenants with [God] in the house of the Lord help us to have a ‘deeper relationship with God’?
3. How can we remember what we ‘learn from [President Nelson’s] teachings about the beautiful blessings and increased power and capacity that can be [ours] through making and keeping covenants with God’?
  - 5/1/2024: To start a serious study of President Nelson’s words, focus on the one Liahona article and the five General Conference addresses that are listed in footnote 43. Then create a study guide which focuses on ‘[learning] from his teachings about the beautiful blessings and increased power and capacity that can be yours through making and keeping covenants with God.’ Share your findings with a friend.
  - Footnote 43:
    - ‘The Everlasting Covenant‘ (October 2022 Liahona)
    - ‘Spiritual Treasures‘ (October 2019 General Conference)
    - ‘Let God Prevail‘ (October 2020 General Conference)
    - ‘The Temple and Your Spiritual Foundation‘ (October 2021 General Conference)
    - ‘Overcome the World and Find Rest‘ (October 2022 General Conference)
    - ‘A Plea to My Sisters‘ (October 2015 General Conference)
4. What ‘beautiful teachings’ were in the footnotes of President Nelson’s most recent general conference address?
5. Can’t I be happy without ‘choos[ing] a deeper relationship with God by making covenants with Him in the house of the Lord’?
6. In your life, when have you had to rely the most on your ‘relationship with God’?
7. What ‘beautiful blessings and increased power and capacity’ came to latter-day saint pioneers as they ‘[made] and [kept] covenants with God’?
8. What could you accomplish in your mortal life if you had ‘increased power and capacity’?
9. Can you think of scriptural accounts that share the importance of ‘making and keeping covenants with God’?
10. If someone asked you to explain the Abrahamic Covenant, could you do it?

5: “If you have the desire to deepen your relationship with your Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ by making sacred covenants in the house of the Lord, I invite you to speak with your bishop or branch president and let him know of your desires. He will help you know how to prepare to receive and honor those covenants.”

Involve your bishop or branch president in your effort to receive and honor temple covenants.
Questions:
1. What are the age requirements for ‘making sacred covenants in the house of the Lord’?
  - “The General Handbook states that it is not required to have a mission call or be engaged to be married to make temple covenants. A person must be at least 18 years old, no longer be attending high school or the equivalent, and be a member of the Church for at least one year. There are also standards of personal holiness required.” -Sister Dennis
2. Where can we find resources that will teach us ‘how to prepare to receive and honor [temple] covenants’?
3. What sacred covenants do we make in the house of the Lord, and where can I learn more about these sacred covenants?
  - “About the Temple Endowment“: “During the endowment ordinance, you will be invited to make certain covenants with God. These covenants are:
    
    “Law of Obedience, which includes striving to keep God’s commandments.
    “Law of Sacrifice, which means doing all we can to support the Lord’s work and repenting with a broken heart and contrite spirit.
    “Law of the Gospel, which is the higher law that He taught while He was on the earth.
    “Law of Chastity, which means that we have sexual relations only with the person to whom we are legally and lawfully wedded according to God’s law.
    “Law of Consecration, which means dedicating our time, talents, and everything with which the Lord has blessed us to building up Jesus Christ’s Church on the earth.
    
    “All covenants with God are intended to be binding. When you keep your covenants and repent of your imperfections, your relationship with Him is strengthened and He will bless you more fully. Your relationship with the Savior also becomes closer and more meaningful. Covenant keepers gain greater access to the power of God and to lasting love, peace, comfort, and joy. God promises that those who keep their covenants will have the opportunity to return to live with Him forever.”
  - “Stronger and Closer Connection to God Through Multiple Covenants“, March 5, 2024, BYU Devotional, Elder Dale G. Renlund: “During the sealing, a woman makes a covenant with her husband and a man makes a covenant with his wife. The tasks of mortality become joint. Husband and wife both enter into an order of the priesthood that neither could enter singly and that is necessary to enter the highest degree of the celestial kingdom. They serve each other and their children and thereby serve God. As a man and a woman are sealed, they covenant with God to keep all the commandments related to marriage in the new and everlasting covenant.
    
    “The elements of the endowment and the sealing align with and reinforce all three aspects of the baptismal covenant. Each aspect of the baptismal covenant and the covenants of the endowment and sealing overlap and mutually reinforce each other.
    
    “We are not forced or compelled in any way to stay in a covenantal relationship with God even after we choose to make these covenants. When we make a covenantal bond with God, we share a covenant with Him. We experience and participate together in the covenant. This is also true for a woman and a man when they are sealed; they make a covenant with each other. I believe it is misleading to think that one is bound to the other for eternity; they are not enslaved, coerced, shackled, or under compulsion. Rather, they share and experience the covenant together. Agency continues to be an overriding component of eternal marriage. No one will be forced to live in a marriage they do not choose or accept, even after the temple sealing.”
4. How does ‘making sacred covenants in the house of the Lord’ ‘deepen [our] relationship with [our] Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ’?
5. If you are a bishop or branch president, do you know which members of your ward are ready to ‘mak[e] sacred covenants in the house of the Lord’? What tools are available to make us aware of these members?
6. What does ‘honor[ing] [temple] covenants’ look like in your life?
7. How might ‘deepen[ing] [our] relationship with [our] Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ’ assist us in helping others ‘to prepare to receive and honor [temple] covenants’?
8. Is our weekly partaking of the Sacrament connected to the sacred covenants we make in the house of the Lord?
9. In temple recommend interviews, how can Church leaders inspire members of the Church to ‘honor [temple] covenants’?
10. How can we consistently ‘desire to deepen [our] relationship with [our] Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ’ throughout our lives? Is there anything besides covenants that will help us deepen that relationship?
