Welcome! This is our third episode of the fireside discussions on the temple, facilitated by Goolge+ Hangouts on Air. We’re glad you could join us. Tonight’s discussion is about the first chapter in Andrew Skinner’s book Temple Worship. You can watch the recording below. Or view the machine transcription here. You can also download an MP3 audio version here.

Panelists include Bryce Haymond, Gary Anderson, Gerald Smith, and William Hamblin.
