Encircled in the Arms of His Love
The purpose of the Book of Mormon is the same as the purpose of the temple, to guide us into the arms of our Savior. The Book of Mormon repeatedly promises that if we are true and faithful, we will be “clasped in the arms of Jesus,” “encircled eternally in the arms of his love.” In this podcast series, we study the Book of Mormon through the lens of the temple to see more deeply into the power of this cherished promise.
