Episode notes
You Are The New Temple
- Revelation reframes the temple: God's presence now dwells in people, not buildings.
- Mark Sayers urges Christians to see themselves as living pillars sustaining God's presence.
Platform Versus Pillar
- Contemporary culture prizes platforms that elevate the individual above others.
- Sayers contrasts this platform mindset with Scripture's pillar metaphor calling for mutual support.
Experience Economy Empties Meaning
- Modern life is 'disenchanted' and pushes people to manufacture constant experiences.
- Sayers links this pressure to seeking feelings instead of deeper, sustained meaning.
