I am often asked where I find my inspiration for sermons - this is one place. I believe God speaks to me daily and this is a place where you can look over my shoulder as I write some notes to myself as we journey towards Sunday . . .

Day 41 a note from God: Exodus 36-38
So Bezalel, Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the LORD has given skill and ability to know how to carry out all the work of constructing the sanctuary are to do the work just as the LORD has commanded.
Exodus 36:1 NIV
Every person who God had given skill to carried out the work.
I like that thought. Especially when you consider that everyone has some type of talent or skill.
That means as the church was being built there was a place for everyone to participate (by design) from the beginning. In the wilderness, God was working to include everyone!
I have a friend who has taken this a step a further. He has helped start a church called Bezalel. This church helps reach out to those artistic type people that are often left out of today's more traditional churches.
Considering the church was designed to be inclusive, who might you reach out to that might have been left behind?
