Description: In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Exodus 35–40 and Leviticus and step into the symbolism of the tabernacle, where every detail quietly teaches the story of Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice. As the tabernacle is built, the people bring offerings with willing hearts, giving their very best to create a place where heaven and earth can meet. What may seem like simple materials and measurements begins to reveal something deeper. Every curtain, every color, and every piece points to a greater reality. This is not just about building a structure. It is about preparing hearts to understand the Savior and the way back into God’s presence. Through the sacrifices and offerings in Leviticus, we see a powerful picture of Easter. Innocent lives offered, blood shed, and everything pointing forward to Jesus Christ, the true Lamb who would give His life for all. What once was repeated daily in symbol is fulfilled completely in Him. Because of His sacrifice, the way is opened, not just for one person once a year, but for all of us to come into the presence of God. This episode invites us to see beyond the details and recognize the message they have been teaching all along. Easter is not just a moment in history, it is the center of everything. Every sacrifice, every symbol, and every step of the journey points to Jesus Christ, reminding us that through Him we are made clean, made whole, and invited all the way back home.
