Today we look at Mircea Eliade’s "The Sacred and the Profane" with Mike Day and Dave Butler, tracing how ancient myths, omphalos stones, and “hierophanies” quietly sit underneath modern Latter-day Saint temple worship. We talk about why the temple can feel like the only solid center in a life that’s spinning apart, and how God uses sacred space to remake us as new creations. If the kingdom of heaven is within us, what does it actually mean to become a sacred place instead of just visit one? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GIVEAWAY RULES!!
