Sermon Title: Temple Builders: helping the next generation construct the future of the church

Summary: Each generation has a part to play in the building of God’s Temple. However, the hand-off of this responsibility can become a tricky thing. Israel’s king David illustrates the attitude and partnership that is necessary in both beginning and finishing the great work of temple building. For them it was completing the monumental structure that housed the name of God. For us, it is contributing to the health and growth of the Church of Jesus Christ, the dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit (Eph. 2:22).
