Have you ever found yourself wanting more for your marriage? Are you in a difficult season in your marriage or relationship and wishing you had a few more tools to navigate the rough waters? Maybe you’re simply looking for a fresh outlook on marriage or planning ahead for your upcoming marriage. If you can answer “yes” to any of the questions, this might be a great class for you!

We will spend 8 weeks together walking through Francis Chan’s book “You and Me Forever: Marriage in Light of Eternity.” This is a powerful book with tools to help you and your spouse dig deeper in your relationship together. We will learn how focusing on God first can radically change a marriage relationship in the best ways possible!

Through God’s desire to dwell among His people, He instructed Moses to build a tabernacle following a precise pattern. We will be learning the significance of the tabernacle’s design and its intricate furnishings. After entering into the altar of sacrifice, we will proceed into the Holy Place, and then go beyond the veil into the Holy of Holies. We will clearly see how everything points toward Jesus Christ, who is the fulfillment of the new covenant. These meanings will have a powerful impact on our walk with the Lord today. We will be challenged to prepare our hearts, like the Holy of Holies, to be a dwelling place for the Most High God.

The workbook by Beth Moore is needed and can be purchased at Connections.
