“When we build this sanctuary, we are not trying to create a little meditative chamber, like the kind of prayer room you might find in an airport. This is a building that should speak defiance. There is a certain peacefulness to it, certainly, but in a world full of turmoil, to speak peace is to speak defiance. This is because we are speaking peace on God’s terms, which means that rebels in arms must lay down their weapons.”
