The Living Temple: S1 Ep4

Episode 4

We desire home because it’s where the longing ends

“A temple in most cultures are… models of how the universe should work. A temple is where you dwell with God, where you live out your true humanness, which is your holiness… This concept that we’re only truly human when we are fully holy.”

We are currently living in a state longing for heaven and earth to be re-united. Like Tolkien’s words acknowledged in episode one: ‘everyone longs for Eden’. We are longing for a home, and that home we are created for is found only with our creator. 
Listen out for: 
+ Living in constant dissatisfaction 
+ Home is relational 
+ A temple is where you live with God
