Short, sharp, and all about priorities — The Book of Haggai finds the Israelites back from exile, dragging their feet on rebuilding the Temple. Haggai doesn't mince words: stop focusing on your paneled houses and start rebuilding the house of God. Two chapters later, he's inspired a national comeback. It's the ancient version of a motivational speech — a reminder that sacred spaces don't build themselves, and that purpose starts when procrastination ends.
