About this episode
We live in an age that is deeply confused about worship, and because it is confused about worship, it is therefore confused about everything else. Worship is the central activity of man, and when we get it wrong, the rot works its way out into every corner of our lives and culture. One of the central confusions of our time is the belief that worship is primarily about self-expression, about displaying the contents of our own hearts, about what makes us feel authentic. We have turned the sanctuary into a selfie station. But true worship, biblical worship, is never about us. It is about approaching a holy God on His terms, not our own. And His terms require a radical reorientation of our lives away from ourselves and toward Him. The details of the tabernacle's construction, which can seem so tedious to the modern reader, are in fact a profound lesson in the grammar of true worship.
