So what is going on with the tabernacle in the Old Testament?

And why did God take so much time describing it?

Stay with us for Renewing Your Mind, as that's what we'll consider today and tomorrow.

The Old Testament can sometimes be hard to read.

The context is very different than today.

There are descriptions and prescriptions that seem foreign to us.

And when we get to Exodus and start reading elaborate details about this tent, this tabernacle, we might be tempted to skip over these chapters.

But if we did, we would miss out on truths that the Lord gave to His people in His Word.

To close out this week, you'll hear two messages from our guest teacher's 12-part series, God in Our Midst, The Tabernacle, and Our Relationship with God.

Daniel Hyde recorded this series and wrote the companion book, and we'll send you both when you give a donation in support of Renewing Your Mind at renewingyourmind.org before midnight tomorrow.

Here's Dr. Hyde, the pastor of Oceanside United Reformed Church in Carlsbad, California.

Six principles from Daniel Hyde to help us understand and benefit from a study of the tabernacle.

Thanks for being with us on this Thursday edition of Renewing Your Mind.

I'm Nathan W. Bingham.

Our guest teacher today is Dr. Hyde, and he recorded this series to study the particulars of this first tabernacle so that we might better understand Jesus, the one who John tells us dwelt or tabernacled among us.

It also has a companion book, so the tabernacle could be the theme of an upcoming book study.

We'll send you the 12-part series on DVD, along with digital access to the messages and study guide, and a copy of the book, God in Our Midst, when you give a donation to help further the reach of Renewing Your Mind at renewingyourmind.org, or when you call us at 800-435-4343.

The tabernacle narratives have much to teach us about God, about sin, about redemption in Christ, and about how we are to live for God today.

And above all, they reveal Christ.

So take the time to work through all 12 messages or read the book when you request today's resource offer with your donation at renewingyourmind.org or when you use the link in the podcast show notes.
