What does it actually mean for your life that God dwells in you?

In The Living Temple, author and teacher Aaron Gordon takes readers on a transformative journey from the dusty courtyards of Jerusalem to the interior life of the contemporary believer. Beginning with the dramatic scene of Jesus cleansing the Temple in John 2, this twelve-week Bible study follows a theological thread that winds through the letters of Paul, the cries of the Psalms, and the prophetic visions of Revelation.

The claim at the heart of this study is staggering: The same God who filled the Tabernacle with His glory and caused the priests to tremble in Solomon's Temple now takes up residence in the bodies of ordinary believers. Through careful exposition and searching reflection, Gordon explores the implications of this truth for our physical lives, our thought lives, and our daily habits.

The Living Temple is not a study designed to produce guilt, but one designed to produce clarity. It is an invitation to meet the God who "does not glance through the doorway and move on," but who enters, looks, and cares with a ferocity that ultimately feels like the most thorough mercy you have ever received.
