Endowment: Ceremony vs. Capacity

What can the Kirtland Temple dedication teach us about power, angelic help, and joy? Dr. Anthony Sweat examines the historical and spiritual significance of Doctrine and Covenants 109-110, clarifies the difference between the endowment and its presentation, and shows how repentance and covenant keeping open the way to lasting spiritual strength.
