Despite the personal heartache and social challenges that came with practicing plural marriage, figures like Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and many faithful women and men sought to live this principle with devotion, humility, and integrity.Dr. Wilson and Dr. Johnson also delve into the eternal perspectives behind the doctrine of eternal marriage, exploring how the Saints in Nauvoo viewed family, sealing, and covenant relationships as essential parts of God’s plan of salvation.Though plural marriage was a defining test of faith for the early Church, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints do not practice this principle today. This episode invites viewers to look at this sensitive topic with empathy, understanding, and appreciation for the faith and courage of those who lived it.*Donate to Scripture Central:https://form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/give/scripture-central/donations*Sign up for our email list:https://forms.aweber.com/form/87/2078810487.htm*Download our free scripture study tool, the ScripturePlus app: https://www.scriptureplus.org/ ____________________________________________*The opinions expressed may represent the views of the individual creators or guests alone, and do not necessarily represent official positions of Scripture Central or of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.*This channel may make use of copyrighted material, the use of which has not always been specifically authorized by the copyright owner.

This episode explores the meaning and evolution of temple ordinances, focusing on how Joseph Smith&rsquo;s Nauvoo revelations redefined heaven as a network of eternal relationships created through sacred ceremonies. Historian Jonathan Stapley explains that ordinances like baptism for the dead, washings, anointings, and sealings were designed to bind humanity together&mdash;transforming individuals into &ldquo;kings and queens, priests and priestesses&rdquo; within the structure of heaven. The discussion traces how these temple practices developed over time and emphasizes that Latter-day Saint worship centers on building Zion through communal, relational, and covenantal connection.

Faithful Anyway - [ Sit Down with Sky ]

What if God’s standards aren’t meant to oppress us—but to set us free?In this episode of Faithful Anyway, we explore why the Family Proclamation can feel restrictive or outdated to some—and why, in reality, it’s a message of divine protection and love. Through President Dallin H. Oaks’s personal story, insights from Stephen Jones' upbringing, and a surprising discovery from an old Improvement Era book, we uncover how God’s standards invite us to become more like Him. Not to shame us, but to lift us higher.We talk about what it means to hold the standard high without losing compassion, and how we can live gospel ideals joyfully, even when life doesn’t fit the perfect picture. Together, we ask: are God’s commandments really limiting, or are they how He helps us become free?Made possible by Scripture Central.For more resources, visit www.scripturecentral.org00:00 Intro – President Oaks and the Family Proclamation00:41 Why this doctrine feels controversial today01:35 When ideals feel out of reach02:08 “Oppressive” or “outdated”?

No Procreation in Eden

This episode focuses on Doctrine and Covenants Section 128, where Joseph Smith teaches the theology of baptism for the dead and the sealing power that connects the living and the dead. Scott Woodward and Casey Griffiths explain how Joseph&rsquo;s 1842 letter outlines the &ldquo;welding link&rdquo; uniting generations through temple ordinances, recordkeeping, and priesthood authority&mdash;forming the foundation of Latter-day Saint temple work.
