“We are God’s house of living stones, Built for His own habitation.” These words from stanza 3 of the well-known hymn “Built on the Rock the Church Shall Stand” are a reminder to us of who we are, and it gives us a sense of belonging. As we gather for worship, we are those stones being piled up together one more time. Whether the pile is small or huge, includes many pebbles or none at all, it is the use of the stones that is important. The stones are fashioned by the working of God for His own habitation. They—and we—can serve no greater purpose! Listen-In or Watch as Pastor Donald expands on this theme.
