It’s not that we should never listen to other people or take advice from the internet. God comes to us in many and varied forms. But nurturing our relationship with God, particularly when it comes to how we order the household of our inner lives, is important. It’s what grounds us so that our joy and hope are not snatched away by headlines or trends or other tools that empires may use.
With all the stonework going on around here, and all these biblical stones, maybe the stones are up to something—inviting us to lift our eyes from the construction around us and consider what our own stones might reveal about God at work here at Christ Church. Because if God is building something with us, if God is making a home, then we ought to get curious about what kind of home God has in mind.
