In this sermon, we begin a new series on “Dwelling” by exploring the often-overlooked biblical Festival of Booths, or Tabernacles. While Christians commonly emphasize Passover as fulfilled in Easter and Pentecost as the giving of the Holy Spirit, this third festival invites us to remember God’s presence and provision in the wilderness.

Through stories of humble homes, tents, temporary shelters, and seasons of both plenty and need, the message challenges us to reconsider what truly matters. Even when life feels abundant, God calls His people to remember where they came from, loosen their grip on temporary comforts, and recognize that this world is not our final home.

Drawing from Leviticus 23 and 2 Corinthians 5, this sermon connects Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles to salvation, sanctification, and God’s abiding presence. It invites us to live with gratitude, simplicity, and hope as we journey toward our heavenly dwelling with God.
