When we come into God’s presence, we expect something huge. Spectacular. Extraordinary. But what if this expectation says more about us than it does about God? What if God is primarily concerned with our ordinary lives?
People come from all over the world to visit Savannah. But they don’t come for the spectacular- the Civic Center, the hotels, or anything else. No, they come to see the squares- rows of “tithing blocks” full of houses, and “trust blocks,” full of churches, businesses, and public meeting places where people have lived out ordinary lives for centuries now. This is why the squares of Savannah and the cross of Christ are linked together in the logo of Christ the King… because its God working in ordinary places that is extraordinary. Sermon below!
