I’ve Never Understood The Temple Like This - Latter-day Saint, Don Bradley | E0047

Have you ever wondered how the early Saints understood the temple? Or what the Kirtland Temple dedication can teach us about Christ today? In this conversation, Don Bradley walks through some simple but powerful connections between the temple, scripture, and the Savior. He also shares openly about his time away from the Church, his involvement in the "ex-Mormon" community, and the experiences that led him back to faith. This episode isn’t dramatic or sensational — it’s just thoughtful, clear, and centered on Christ. I’m grateful for Don’s honesty and the insights he brought to this discussion. 00:00 Trailer 01:00 Introduction – Finding Jesus in the Temple 06:45 The Kirtland Temple 13:30 Elijah, Passover, and the Kirtland Temple 18:45 Easter, Palm Sunday, and Jesus’ Appearance 27:00 Jesus the Passover Lamb 31:30 Kirtland Temple Dedication and the Mount of Transfiguration 38:40 Three Witnesses and Peter, James, and John 41:15 Kirtland Dedicatory Prayer 47:00 Taking Jesus’ Name: The Temple Garment 57:30 Temple Text in Ether 3 1:06:50 Taking Jesus’ Name Upon the Church 1:14:40 Don Bradley’s Faith Journey 1:26:30 Restoring Temple Covenants 1:34:09 Message to the Lost 1:39:20 It’s All About Jesus Christ
