Episode notes
Spring Festivals To Fall Fulfillment
- The spring festivals point to Jesus' first coming while the fall festivals look forward to his return and final dwelling.
- Sukkot functions as the culminating celebration that images permanent fellowship with God.
Begin With One Small Holiday
- Start small: pick one spring and one fall biblical holiday and try them before adding more.
- Celebrate in simple ways first and expand as the family embraces the rhythm.
Hit The Easy Button On Building
- Use your porch or deck as a sukkah so building a full structure doesn't intimidate you.
- Keep weekdays low-key and host simple dinners in the evenings to make Sukkot manageable.
