Philip Hodson preaches about the deep yearnings of God's heart to dwell among His people, emphasizing the intimate communion He desires with us. From the creation of man in His image to the establishment of the New Covenant, God's longing to dwell among us is evident throughout the Bible. The essence of New Covenant life is the access to the Father through Jesus, allowing us to be a dwelling place of God in the Spirit. The vital reality of God's presence in our midst is the defining mark of believers and the church, leading to a transformative and powerful life.
