Description

What does it truly mean to rebuild the Temple of God?


The prophet Ezekiel’s vision of God’s glory departing the Temple before the Babylonian siege reminds us that a magnificent structure is meaningless without the divine presence. Today, the closure and decay of churches in many regions is not simply a financial issue, but a sign of waning faith among the people.


When faith is routine, inward-looking, or merely nominal, generosity fades. But when hearts encounter the living Christ within a vibrant community, faith is rekindled and with it comes the zeal and generosity to sustain God’s Church.


Reflection Question: How is Christ inviting me to encounter Him more deeply so that my zeal for His Church may be renewed?
