First Things First
Pastor Josh Hilburn invited us to consider the Church as a temple made to create space for anyone and everyone, with Jesus as our sole foundation; a people built together by God so that we'd work passionately and tirelessly to build up others.

You can't get second things by putting them first. You get second things only by putting first things first.

Don't get too busy in the work of the Lord that you don't have time for the Lord of the work.

Reflection
How does your life create space for others to see and experience God; especially those without space (kids in the foster system, immigrants, refugees)?
Where do you have a tendency to to be a temple turned inward? If Jesus showed up in your life, what tables would He flip over?
What practical step(s) will you commit to make to be less of a consumer and more a participant in God's work in and through the Church?
