Work in Progress: A Firm Foundation (Ezra 3:8-13)

from Chattanooga Valley Baptist Church · host Brian Carroll

When the foundation of the temple was laid, some shouted for joy while others wept over what was lost. Ezra 3 shows us that God’s work stirs different responses.  Some will experience grief for the past.  Others will be overwhelmed with hope for the future. These are real and valid human responses that God is very much mindful of. The question for us today is this: how will we respond when God is building something new in our lives and in our churches?”Now, let’s turn our attention to Pastor Brian for this week’s sermon, entitled “A Firm Foundation” from Ezra, chapter 3, verses 8 through 13.
