This is a single teaching through the first chapter of the Book of Haggai. God calls men to serve Him and not themselves, yet the nation of Israel lost sight of this calling as they became discouraged during the rebuilding of the second temple after returning from captivity. In today's culture preaching pursuit of self, the lessons of Haggai are especially timely.

This lesson was presented on November 18, 2007 at the Oak Hill Bible Church in Austin, Texas.
