Just got back from our pastor's whirlwind retreat. God laid some VERY cool things on our heart in the area of Spiritual Development (i.e. Discipleship) in the future...I believe it's truly innovative (& life-changing) stuff! More details later.
Anyway, back to yesterday...we finished off our "Indiana Jones & the Tabernacle of You" series..."unearthing" how the Tabernacle teaches us about our daily relationship with Jesus, and looked at Exodus 40. Here are some thoughts:
- To review the series, we played a game & gave away Indiana Jones M&Ms. I realized that the Mars Co. (& probably George Lucas) should show us some love for the attention. :-)
- I decided to wear the Indy costume 1 more time. Cracked the whip, too. (Mmmmm...I'm ready for our fall church-wide Trunk-or-Treat).
- Here is some more "cutting-room-floor" verses so you can dive deeper:
- "The Door"
- "Traveling West"
- Israel entered east to west (Exo 27:13-16)
- God moves east to west (Matt 24:27)
- "The Veil"
- The veil was torn top to bottom (Mark 15:37-38)
- There is a "veil" on people's hearts too (2Cor 3:15-16)
- "The Pillar"
- They stayed whether it was a mo, wk, or yr (Num 9:17-23)
- It was an indication of God moving (Num 10:33-36)
- I enjoyed the series a ton, but I am READY for the next series now. (Check out this passage & this TV show.) :-)
