Why Didn't They Build That Temple?
Scripture References: Haggai 1:1-14

A message from the series “Toolbox for Evangelism.” Nearly a third of Jesus’ teachings consisted of stories, or parables. These seemingly innocent tales were not just given for entertainment though — they were designed to penetrate the heart in a way a series of commands couldn’t. They forced the listener to meditate on the teachings and make the change from the inside out. As such, they were exceedingly effective.
Can we use parables today? Of course! Maybe not in the same way as Jesus, but using illustrations can still be effective if handled properly.

CloseThe remnant that returned from captivity had absolutely no excuse to not build the Temple. But whereas we often chastise them for their lack of priorities, the truth of their situation is a lot more complicated - and relatable.
