The tent speaks of separation—a life that is no longer rooted in this world.In this episode, we connect these Old Testament pictures to New Testament truth, including what it means to worship the Father “in spirit and in truth” (John 4), and how believers today are called to live as strangers and pilgrims.This is not about perfection—but direction.A life turned toward God… And a life not settled here.📖 Scriptures Referenced Genesis 12:7–8 John 4:23–24 Matthew 6:21 Romans 12:1–2 1 Peter 2:11 2 Timothy 4:10 🎙️ About This SeriesThis podcast series walks through the life of Abraham, tracing what it means to be called by God and to walk by faith—step by step.Submit questions and comments to www.ThoughtsofChrist.com
