Attorney and author Mark A. Shields explores the deeper meaning of the weekly sacrament and its surprising connections to the temple endowment. Beginning with a simple question—why are the sacrament prayers on the bread and water different?—he examines the prayers word by word, then overlaps their lessons with Old Testament tabernacle symbolism, the Abrahamic covenant, and Jacob's staircase. The result is a devotional guide meant to help Latter-day Saints partake of the sacrament with greater understanding, reverence, and appreciation each Sabbath. Answers a question nearly every member has wondered but few can explain: why are the prayers on the bread and water different? From the author of the beloved 'Your Endowment'—now connecting the temple to the ordinance you perform every single week Turns a routine Sunday ordinance into a rich, temple-connected spiritual experience Written by a stage-four cancer survivor whose 'just keep climbing' message carries real weight “the most important thing we had done that day was partake of the sacrament”Perfect for an endowed Latter-day Saint who wants the weekly sacrament to feel less routine and more connected to their temple covenants.
