Session 4: Disobedience and Discipline

God's call is for us to continue working on making a suitable home for him among his people, but he assures us through his power, presence, and promised peace that he will complete the work he started.

When the Lord speaks against our sinful self-interest, we are called to listen and repent, re-prioritizing his kingdom work.

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

When you are opposed for doing God’s will, don’t abandon the work, for the Lord Jesus Christ will overcome every adversary

A desperate longing for God's presence leads to a determined pursuit of God's presence, which leads to being transformed in God's presence

Only work built on Christ will last, and since the church belongs to God, she must avoid division and boasting in men, rejoicing in all she has in Christ.

Groundbreaking marks the start of something new and turning plans into reality. The laying of the foundation of Christ the Cornerstone is proof of the Lord's steadfast love to the Church, his living temple.

Worshipping in the Fearful In-Between

Our fear of real or imagined dangers can either drive us away from the Lord and to false securities or towards the Lord. Thankfully, Jesus our great high priest leads us through our fear and into God's holy presence, bringing peace in difficult times.
