Resources for Sermon Challenge from 9/21/25

Hey friends,

Below you will find the videos Pastor Cory referred to as part of the reading through Haggai challenge.

As a reminder, here was the complete challenge from this past Sunday's message: CHALLENGE:

• Continue praying: 

“Sovereign Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”

Then, look for the opportunity He will provide for you to be His hand of healing, and boldly step out in the confidence of His Spirit to witness to your community.

• Read ahead:  Acts chapters 5-9.

Additional reading and study:

In relation to this message and Heart for His House, read Haggai 2:10-19. If we as His people don’t humble ourselves and turn from our apathy, then no matter what we build - even though it be His house - without boldness and a heart for Christ, even building His temple will be in vain.

“You can keep coming to church because it makes you feel good, or you can start sharing the Gospel as the church because it’s changing you.”

The book of Haggai helps establish some of the key points for the next message on Sunday.

Pay attention to Haggai 2:10-19, which is covered at 3 minutes and 5 seconds into the video.

Take note at the 3:33 mark in the Bible Recap video.
