Join me as I speak with Barbara Morgan Gardner, author of The Priesthood Power of Women and Associate Professor of Religion at Brigham Young University, as she  clarifies several questions surrounding the priesthood power of women and how women can use the priesthood power in the temple, at church, and in their homes.   Barbara also explains the ecclesiastical structure of the church, and how the hierarchal priesthood structure differs from the patriarchal structure of the temple. She explains how the priesthood isn’t something we are, but that it is something God authorizes us to use for the benefit of others and the additional power and blessings we receive as endowed covenant keeping members. So many clarifying insights!
