In this episode, we look at God's call to Bezalel and Oholiab, the first people in Scripture explicitly said to be "filled with the Spirit." We discuss our common struggle with dividing life into "sacred" and "secular" categories, and how we often look to our careers to validate our worth. Finally, we look to Jesus, the ultimate Craftsman, who redeems our daily labor and frees us to worship God in the mundane tasks of ordinary life.

In this episode, we look at God's highly specific recipe for the tabernacle incense and His strict command that it not be used for personal perfume. We discuss our human tendency to treat worship like a consumer product, seeking what we can get out of God rather than giving Him the glory He deserves. Finally, we find deep comfort in Jesus Christ, our great High Priest, whose perfect life and intercession make our deeply flawed worship an acceptable and pleasing aroma to the Father.

In this episode, we explore the specific recipe for the holy anointing oil used in the tabernacle. We talk about our exhausting tendency to try and manufacture our own holiness and significance, and why God strictly forbade counterfeiting His sacred oil. Finally, we look at how Jesus, the true Anointed One, frees us from the burden of proving our worth and covers us with His perfect grace.
