Listen "Jericho Road: This Old House"
Episode Synopsis
2 Samuel 7 is the most important scripture passage no one ever talks about. King David is at the top of his game, with a unified nation and new capital city, Jerusalem. Now he wants to build God a house, a Temple. In response God's prophet pulls no punches, "I don't want a house." Temples can be trouble and worse yet distracting, and in time this Temple would be both. In this episode, we will begin the contrast between worship that is nimble and pivots (the ark), worship that is fixed (the Temple), with strengths and weaknesses of both.Reflection Questions:When it comes to our religion, how do we confuse means with ends?What is the difference between "religion" and "faith?"
