Review:

Covenant Power, by Sharla Goettl, is an LDS book about covenants with God. It isn’t just a dry treatise; but the author uses stories from the scriptures to illustrate how people establish their covenants with God. For example, Jacob's struggle with God is used to illustrate the Abrahamic covenant.  He learns that his posterity would be as innumerable as the stars in heaven. I like it when the author takes a principle, and we can see how it applies to a real person. 

I give this book 5 stars.

 

Blurb:

In Covenant Power, teacher Sharla Goettl uses captivating storytelling to bring key endowment principles to life, presented in the imagined voices of the scriptural figures who taught each principle best, such as Peter, Eve, Nephi, & Mormon. Through these stories, you'll gain an understanding of how the endowment prepares us to receive Christ’s covenant power. They also highlight connections between the scriptures and the endowment. God designed temple covenants to enable lasting success, calm deep fears, and build steady confidence.

This book teaches how each covenant you make helps you to connect with Christ’s power:

Law of Obedience: The action of seeing Christ’s power. Law of Sacrifice: Embrace the process to gain Christ’s power. Law of the Gospel: Learn how to retain Christ’s power. Law of Chastity: Discover the key to increasing in Christ’s power. Law of Consecration: An opportunity to share Christ’s power

Be inspired by the endowment through this unique reading experience—one that will testify to Christ’s firm foundation built upon covenant guarantees. Whether you are preparing for the endowment or eager to learn more, Covenant Power will empower your love and knowledge of the temple.
