Anna Joyce–Jesus cleanses the temple of all that separates us from His presence. He is seeking to restore a sense of the sacred to the temple. By driving out the merchants and challenging religious corruption, he resets the sanctity of God's house and emphasises His unwavering dedication to preserving holiness and integrity in His house of worship. 

With the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, we now have the Holy Spirit dwelling in us and we are His living temple. As His living temple, what are the things that need driving out of our lives so we can live a life of worship? What are the barriers that stop us from living a life in the Spirit?
