House of God?

I was at the “dedication” of a large new facility for a local church this past weekend.

Part of the service – the official “dedication” part – involved the members of the church staff reciting various promises on the stage, each one followed by the audience repeating something about “dedicating this house of God”.

All I could think of was the words of Stephen in Acts 7.

God does not live in houses made by men.

Guess I’m still cynical.
