Exodus 25-40
Headed Home
God With Us
August 21, 2022 • Steve Gregg • Exodus 40:16–38
How does Exodus end? After the people repent and follow the Lord's instructions in building the tabernacle, we see the Glory of God dwelling among the people in the cloud over tabernacle by day and fire by night, pointing us to the fact that God seeks to be with us, his people, and that believers are blessed by the presence of God in the Holy Spirit.
Intercession and Renewal
August 14, 2022 • Steve Gregg • Exodus 32—34
Do we see ourselves in the people of these chapters of Exodus? We must, as followers of Christ, see the greivous nature of our rebellion and sin against God. But we must also see the love and graciousness of the LORD, who relents from his wrath due to the intercession of Moses, which shadows the work of Christ on the cross and right now in heaven.
Idolatry
July 24, 2022 • Michael Roop
What is happening while Moses is up on the mountain with the LORD? Meanwhile, the people have decided to take matters into their own hands by forming their own idea of who God is and then worshipping it. The first step for us is to identify ourselves with the people and to seek out Jesus as he truly is with humble hearts, knowing that we too have our own idols just like those people, and that only Jesus is worthy of our worship.
Sabbath
July 17, 2022 • Michael Roop
How does God conclude his encounter with Moses on the mountain? The goodness and importance of the Sabbath is seen in the punishment for breaking the law and in the giving of this practice of rest to humanity, forcing us to acknowledge weekly that we are unable to earn righteousness through our own efforts.
Sacred Service
June 26, 2022 • Eric Olson • Exodus 28—29
How is our faith encouraged by learning of the priestly garments and their detailed and beautiful workmanship? Listen as Pastor Eric takes us through the role and garments of the priests, and how Jesus is our eternal High Priest, calling us to himself as a royal priesthood and a chosen people.
Sacred Furniture
June 19, 2022 • Michael Roop • Exodus 25:23–40
How is furniture supposed to help us worship and live lives worthy of our calling? Join along and see how we learn that the furniture of the tabernacle is the stage on which the story of the Exodus is retold to Israel, and how we can apply that to our lives around 3000 years later.
Sacred Spaces
June 12, 2022 • Michael Roop • Exodus 25:10–22
What can we learn from these (some would say slightly dry) passages regarding the construction of the Tabernacle? Join with us as we begin to finish the last section of Exodus, learning how God must be at the center and how precious His presence was to Israel, and is now to us.
