COURSE DESCRIPTION:
God wants to walk with his people, from the time that he walked with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden to the time Yeshua (Jesus) walked with his disciples. But human rebellion short-circuits that intimacy, and alternate routes mark changing relationships. To reestablish intimacy, are the Tabernacle and the Temple detours or the main road? Should we encourage building a new Temple? From the opening chapters of Genesis to the closing chapters of Revelation we will explore this central theme of the Bible.
