The Contrite Spirit: How the Temple Helps Us Apply Christ's

The Contrite Spirit: How the Temple Helps Us Apply Christ's Atonement

A friend once asked Elder Bruce C. Hafen, If Jesus Christ is at the center of the gospel and the center of the temple, why doesn t the temple endowment teach the story of the life of Christ? What s all this about Adam and Eve? After thinking about this provocative question, Elder Hafen concluded, I have come to believe that the story of Christ s life is the story of giving His Atonement, and the story of Adam and Eve is the story of receiving His Atonement and their story is our story. In The Contrite Spirit, Elder and Sister Hafen use the lens of the temple to share their insights about receiving the Atonement of Jesus Christ, shedding further light on the central doctrine of the gospel while deepening our understanding of temple ordinances. As we further explore the Atonement based on the covenants of the temple, we will better understand how the Atonement applies to us.
