Sermons on Haggai

A group of Jews returned back to Israel after their exile in Babylon. They were to return and work on the rebuilding of the temple. But soon opposition set in and distraction came, and the rebuilding work sat idle for 15 years. Haggai the prophet comes along to speak to the people and cause them to see that their priorities have been out of line. So he speaks into their situation and gives much encouragement as well as the temple building is resumed and completed shortly after. A definite word for us today as our priorities often times need adjusting. Haggai 1:1-2:23
