About this listen
Dave Rich examines Peter's metaphor of the church as living stones in 1 Peter 2:5. This imagery portrays believers as components of a spiritual house, functioning as a holy priesthood. Rich explains how the church, as living stones, offers acceptable sacrifices to God through Jesus Christ. He outlines seven types of spiritual sacrifices: self-dedication, love, giving, praise, service, gospel proclamation, and prayer. The metaphor represents God's presence on earth and the church's role in fulfilling His purpose. By depicting the church as living stones, Peter emphasizes the active participation of believers in God's plan through sanctification and service.
