The Temple: Where Heaven Meets Earth (Hard Cover Book) by Truman G. Madsen
Item #9781590389263
"For decades, whatever else I have studied or written," writes Truman G. Madsen, " I have been motivated to explore vital temple purposes, preoccupied with their origins and applications. Much that I have learned in this quest is in and between the lines of these chapters."

In this insightful and informative book, Brother Madsen teaches us how we can gain access to the light and truth offered in the temple. He discusses the relationship of the temple to the Atonement, Joseph Smith's contribution to our understanding of temples, and how the scriptures and the temple illuminate each other.

The messages in The Temple: Where Heaven Meets Earth attest to Brother Madsen's great love of temples and include some of his best-known works on the temple, including "House of Glory" and "Joseph Smith and the Kirtland Temple," as well as several other chapters that have never been published before.

Presented in his characteristic style, Brother Madsen's profound insights and doctrinal commentary are punctuated with fascinating stories from Church history, as well as his personal experiences with the temple. He bears firm witness of the enduring truths of the temple and reminds us that we truly can draw closer to God by our faithful worship there. In doing so, we can enjoy a taste of heaven here on earth.
