Why Planning Matters: Lessons from David, Solomon, and the Temple

Feb 1, 2026  •  Ben Hays, Kirby Follis

Welcome to another episode of the Sermon Conversations podcast! This week, the teaching pastors of City Rise gather to discuss the theology and history behind our upcoming sermon focus from 1 Chronicles 28:9–19.


As we continue our "Pathways" series, we explore the "Pathway of Planning." Using the transition of leadership from King David to his son Solomon, we discuss what it looks like to move a future vision into a present reality through God-honoring plans. Whether we are renovating a 100-year-old church or building a life of faith, the blueprint remains the same: it must be built on a personal relationship with God.
