The Bountiful Utah Temple is one of a series of detailed pencil drawings and paintings created by the artist Chad S. Hawkins. In 1989, at the age of seventeen, Chad started this unique temple series becoming the original LDS artist to involve hidden spiritual images in his artwork.

In this temple picture, Chad has sketched an image of the Savior, Jesus Christ, standing in the rock in the midst of a multitude of Nephites round about the temple, which is in the land Bountiful. Christ was placed in the rock because he is the rock of our salvation. The crowning event recorded in the Book of Mormon is the personal ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ among the Nephites soon after his resurrection  (Book of Mormon Introduction). And now it came to pass that there were a great multitude gathered together, of the people of Nephi, round about the temple which was in the land Bountiful . . . and behold, they saw a Man descending out of heaven; and he was clothed in a white robe and he came down and stood in the midst of them; . . . And it came to pass that he stretched forth his hand and spake unto the people, saying: Behold, I am Jesus Christ, whom the prophets testified shall come into the world (3 Ne. 11:1, 8, 9 10).
