We trace Paul’s claim in 1 Corinthians 3 that God chooses to dwell in a people, not just impressive structures, and we face the warning that breaking unity is a serious attack on God’s temple. We return to the gospel as the only foundation, then ask what it looks like to build faithfully with God while trusting him for growth and outcomes.
• God’s presence as something shared between us, not sequestered in a special place
• The warning against destroying God’s temple by jealousy, quarreling, and factionalism
• The gospel of Jesus as saving and sustaining wisdom, always and only
• What “the flesh” means as our default mode apart from God’s Spirit
• Church as a garden to be tended, not a machine to be managed
• Building on the foundation of Christ with work that endures the fire
• Grace and effort through Dallas Willard’s line about earning versus effort
• The wisdom of the cross as the end of boasting in people
• “All things are yours” as comfort for life, death, present stress, and future uncertainty
