Some of us may have this view that God only dwells in church building (refer back to Tamara's comment from yesterday's blog). But that's not biblical given that the church is really not a building, but rather the people of God. One of my favorite portions of Scripture comes from Acts 17:24 - 28a, which says:
"The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else. From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact place where they should live. God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. 'For in him we live and move and have our being.'"
