Following God Life Principles for Worship from the Tabernacle

by Wayne Barber, Eddie Rasnake, Richard Shepherd

Overview

The ancient Tabernacle comes to life, and your worship of God will be changed for forever.

“If you long to understand how God dynamically works in the lives of people like you and me, ‘Following God’ will be food for your soul.” —JOHN MACARTHUR, Pastor-Teacher, Grace Community Church
 
The ancient Tabernacle comes to life, and your worship of God will be changed forever.
 
What can a 3,000 year-old piece of history teach me about worship?
 
What is the right way to worship God? Throughout history, God has chosen to provide a way for man to worship Him, and for nearly five hundred years, the Tabernacle was that way.
 
Through the detailed study of the Tabernacle, you will learn that there is a right way and yet many wrong ways to worship our Creator. The purpose of this study is to invite readers to worship God in God’s way through the “Object Lesson: of the Tabernacle, Jesus Christ.
In the very first lesson of this book, you will observe that centuries before the Tabernacle was constructed, God taught His people about worship. You’ll discover that the earthly Tabernacle and all its components hold a spiritual significance and was actually a model of the “true Tabernacle” in Heaven, where Jesus Christ is eternally worshiped as King of kings and Lord of lords.
While this interactive book can lead an individual in growing in knowing and walking with God, we are also including a Leader’s Guide for Small Group interaction. The Leader’s Guide walks through each Lesson seeking to help guide discussion and application to one’s daily walk Following God. Individually or with others, one’s walk Following God can be enriched and encouraged.
