[3821.42 --> 3824.26] to worry about what kind of animals were in our house.
[3824.82 --> 3826.98] Me and my brother and my dad, we would watch sports.
[3826.98 --> 3828.14] We would play sports.
[3828.22 --> 3829.54] We were into fantasy sports.
[3829.62 --> 3830.30] I loved all of it.
[3831.14 --> 3832.36] And then I met Nikki.
[3833.16 --> 3834.00] She loves animals.
[3834.24 --> 3836.72] She grew up with cats and dogs in her house all her life.
[3836.94 --> 3839.06] She wasn't as into sports as I was, though.
[3839.74 --> 3842.48] She said soccer was dumb when we first met.
[3843.92 --> 3845.02] That was almost the end.
[3846.82 --> 3848.36] Now, in fairness, she was into gymnastics,
[3848.58 --> 3849.46] and she played basketball,
[3849.46 --> 3851.44] so it's not like sports weren't a part of her life,
[3851.44 --> 3853.88] but to watch them or, heaven forbid,
[3853.98 --> 3855.48] be a part of fantasy sports,
[3855.48 --> 3856.70] that never really crossed her mind.
[3857.30 --> 3859.14] We've been married now for 12 years.
[3859.38 --> 3862.32] We've just welcomed our second dog into our family
[3862.32 --> 3863.56] a couple months ago.
[3863.64 --> 3864.38] His name's Oslo.
[3864.64 --> 3866.00] We have a cat, too, named Nala.
[3866.68 --> 3868.00] I love our pets, to be honest with you.
[3868.08 --> 3868.96] Sounds weird, but it's true.
[3869.00 --> 3869.20] I do.
[3869.26 --> 3869.96] I love my pets.
[3870.24 --> 3871.88] Maybe not as much as Nikki does, but I do.
[3872.00 --> 3873.18] I love our dog, our cat.
[3873.22 --> 3873.80] We have frogs.
[3874.68 --> 3875.56] I love my pets.
[3875.84 --> 3877.14] Nikki's come around on soccer, too.
[3877.44 --> 3880.02] She's even played on a few soccer teams with me over the years.
[3880.02 --> 3883.32] She also just stepped back from playing 10 years of fantasy hockey,
[3883.72 --> 3886.10] fairly successful manager in our dynasty hockey pool.
[3887.46 --> 3893.38] It turns out you start to love what your loved ones love.
[3894.88 --> 3895.72] Think about it.
[3895.72 --> 3899.00] We've all been influenced by our parents or our caregivers in this regard.
[3899.26 --> 3900.58] We've inherited their hobbies.
[3900.80 --> 3902.74] We often follow their passions.
[3903.14 --> 3905.06] We love the things our friends love, too.
[3905.38 --> 3908.40] You watch Survivor together on Wednesday night.
[3908.40 --> 3910.70] You listen to the same music, perhaps.
[3911.16 --> 3913.58] Some of you even share clothes with your friends.
[3914.64 --> 3917.88] What our loved ones love, we learn to love.
[3917.94 --> 3919.46] It's part of being in relationship.
[3920.10 --> 3921.52] So think about your own life for a moment.
[3921.62 --> 3929.20] What is something you love now that is a direct result of someone you love loving that thing first?
[3930.28 --> 3932.00] So just hold on to that for a second.
[3932.08 --> 3932.94] It's going to come in handy later.
[3932.94 --> 3938.98] For now, though, grab your Bibles, open them up, pull out your phones or whatever devices your Bible's on.
[3939.24 --> 3942.96] We're going to look at the second chapter of 1 Peter today.
[3943.08 --> 3949.30] We're continuing our series on 1 Peter, and we're going to look at the second chapter right now.
[3949.34 --> 3952.02] We're going to read verses 4 through 10.
[3952.02 --> 3955.72] So grab those Bibles, open them up, and read with me there.
[3956.62 --> 3958.54] 1 Peter 2, 4 to 10 says this.
[3959.88 --> 3966.46] As you come to him, the living stone, rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him,
[3967.16 --> 3973.46] you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood,
[3973.88 --> 3978.64] offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
[3978.64 --> 3980.66] For in Scripture it says,
[3980.66 --> 3985.18] See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone,
[3985.42 --> 3988.18] and the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame.
[3989.14 --> 3991.20] Now to you who believe, this stone is precious.
[3992.14 --> 3997.74] But to those who don't believe, the stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,
[3998.14 --> 4002.16] and a stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall.
[4002.40 --> 4008.32] They stumble because they disobey the message, which is also what they were destined for.
[4008.64 --> 4018.82] But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession,
[4019.48 --> 4024.94] that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into this wonderful light.
[4026.26 --> 4029.56] Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God.
[4029.56 --> 4034.76] Once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
[4035.56 --> 4037.18] The word of the Lord.
[4040.12 --> 4046.76] We are the church chosen by God to declare the gospel.
[4048.28 --> 4050.58] We are the church.
[4050.78 --> 4053.34] There's a lot of imagery in this text today, isn't there?
[4053.34 --> 4055.22] Peter, he loves his analogies.
[4055.34 --> 4059.16] And often, like today's text, he uses analogies that are layered.
[4059.72 --> 4062.50] So in verses 4 and 5 of our text today, for example,
[4062.62 --> 4065.84] Jesus is both the cornerstone on which the temple is built,
[4065.98 --> 4068.04] but also the builder who builds the temple.
[4068.58 --> 4072.70] And we, the readers, the people of God, we are both the temple which he is building,
[4072.96 --> 4076.38] but also the priests who operate in the temple.
[4077.72 --> 4078.54] It can be tricky.
[4078.62 --> 4079.42] It can be confusing.
[4079.42 --> 4083.88] So in light of this, let's break down some of this imagery, lay it all out, see how it works,
[4084.04 --> 4087.28] and then we'll move on with some of these analogies.
[4088.92 --> 4091.20] First, Jesus is called the living stone.
[4091.30 --> 4092.52] This is a mixed metaphor.
[4092.80 --> 4097.76] Stones, of course, they're solid, they're steadfast, they're unchanging, they're supportive.
[4098.62 --> 4101.00] Jesus, though, is the living stone.
[4102.28 --> 4104.74] He's stable, he's steadfast, he's foundational,
[4105.16 --> 4108.56] but he's also alive and he's active.
[4109.42 --> 4114.04] He's not immobile and stationary, he's involved and he's engaged.
[4115.26 --> 4118.76] Temple imagery dominates verses 4 and 5 of our text.
[4118.84 --> 4122.08] The temple was this super large and impressive building,
[4122.16 --> 4125.52] a place where God dwelt with his people.
[4125.88 --> 4131.50] It's where priests offered sacrifices to atone for the sins of the Israelite community.
[4131.50 --> 4137.10] The temple helped the Israelite people identify as God's people.
[4138.34 --> 4140.82] So for your notes' sake, here's a breakdown of this.
[4140.92 --> 4142.26] Jesus is the living stone.
[4142.52 --> 4144.24] He's active and he's steadfast.
[4144.34 --> 4146.80] He's the cornerstone on which his church is founded.
