After rescuing Israel from slavery, God gives detailed instructions for building the tabernacle—a sacred place where his presence would dwell among his people. From the garden of Eden, to the tabernacle, and ultimately to Jesus, the story of the Bible reveals something remarkable: God desires to live in relationship with us. He doesn't stay distant—he draws near. In this message, we explore how Jesus is the true tabernacle—the place where God meets with his people—and what it means to intentionally make space for his presence in our lives today. In a world where our schedules, attention, and hearts easily become crowded, we're confronted with a simple but powerful question: Are we making space for Jesus? Join us as we open God's Word and discover what it looks like to center our lives around the presence of God.","meta_description":"Have you ever noticed how much space God takes up in the book of Exodus?
