Dan Belnap is a Professor of Ancient Scripture at Brigham Young University. One of the topics he writes on extensively is ritual worship.I wanted to speak to Dan about why we worship in rituals and with symbolic clothing, as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints rituals and symbols are central mediums for how I express and live my faith.Some highlights from this episode include Dan’s explanation of King Charles’ Coronation ceremony, the historical importance of washing and anointing prior to ordination, and the hidden meaning behind the clothes we choose to wear each day.--You can find more of Dan Belnap’s work at the following links:- https://religion.byu.edu/directory/daniel-belnap- https://rsc.byu.edu/our-rites-worship/introduction-latter-day-saints-perception-ritualFollow For All The Saints on social media for updates and inspiring content:www.instagram.com/forallthesaintspodhttps://www.facebook.com/forallthesaintspod/For All The Saints episodes are released every Monday on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVDUQg_qZIU&list=UULFFf7vzrJ2LNWmp1Kl-c6K9Qhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3j64txm9qbGVVZOM48P4HS?si=bb31d048e05141f2https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/for-all-the-saints/id1703815271If you have feedback or any suggestions for topics or guests, connect with Ben & Sean via hello@forallthesaints.org or DM on InstagramConversations to Refresh Your Faith.For All The Saints podcast was established in 2023 by Ben Hancock to express his passion and desire for more dialogue around faith, religious belief, and believers' perspectives on the topics of our day.
