My Turn on Earth recounts the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints' Plan of Salvation. Barbara and her four friends are living in Heaven (the pre-existence). While there, they re-enact the War in Heaven and the shouts for joy of the spirits that are going to be born. They treat mortality as a treasure hunt with returning again to live with Heavenly Father and Mother as the greatest prize to be won. In the end, Barbara returns to Heaven, having learned the necessary lessons.
