The imbalance between the resources we pour into physical church buildings and the care we give to the people who worship within them.
[Consequences of Misplaced Priorities]*
- When we invest more in the building than in the people, several issues arise:
1. *Neglect of the needy*: Resources that could have gone into feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, or supporting the broken are diverted into maintaining an impressive structure.
2. *Loss of community focus*: The church becomes more about a location than a living body of believers who are meant to support and uplift one another.
3. *Spiritual stagnation*: Focusing on the external often leads to neglecting the internal, resulting in a congregation that looks good on the outside but lacks spiritual depth and genuine relationships.
