As an editor who deals primarily with nonfiction, I’m often encouraging my authors to put themselves in their readers’ shoes. It’s surprising how many authors don’t think seriously about who the reader is and what the reader needs.
That’s how I feel about the Church’s temple prep class, to be frank. It does a fine job answering questions that most people don’t ask when they’re going to the temple for the first time. Questions like, “What was the role of temples in ancient times?” instead of, “What the heck is this green apron and what will I do with it in the temple?”
