Father Kaleeg Hainsworth, an Eastern Orthodox priest with a lifetime of experience in the Canadian wilderness, grounds this manifesto in the literary, philosophical, mystical and historical teachings of the spiritual masters of both East and West, outlining the human experience of the sacred in nature. The spiritual ecology described here is fully engaged with the wilderness beyond our backyards; it is an ecology which takes in nature as "red in tooth and claw" and offers a way forward in the face of accelerating climate change. This manifesto also challenges our modern self-conception as dominators or stewards of the natural world, claiming these roles emerged from western industrial history and are directly responsible for the environmental damage and alienation from nature we know today. The ecological scope of this book begins with a meditation on natural beauty as the divine that breathes through all aspects of life. We discover along the way that awe and mystery are so vital to the human experience of the natural world that without them we are doomed to treat nature as little more than a resource, a science or a playground for recreation alone. Instead, a new role emerges from these pages, one which accounts for the sacred in nature and places us in relationship to the world of which we are inextricably a part. This role is a priestly one, and Father Hainsworth outlines the significance and benefits of it in detail while also offering a vision of life in which a human being stands in the world of nature as at an altar built in the wilderness, a sacred offering in a holy place.

FRIENDS, AS WE BEGIN THIS SOUL SATISFYING, HEART thrilling study of " The Tabernacle in the Wilderness," may the Psalmist's prayer constantly be ours, "Lord, open thou mine eyes that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law." I trust that when we have finished this series you will have fallen in love, as I did many years ago, with this rich teaching - which, in the Old Testament foreshadows the CHRIST of the New Testament, and shows the way by which a sinful man may approach and have fellowship with a holy GOD.

The Tabernacle is the greatest of all the Old Testament "types" of Christ. As we look closely at its furniture, its priesthood, and its feast observances, we are afforded a glimpse of God's glory, His grace, and His love for His chosen people. The sacrifices and rituals performed in the Tabernacle in the wilderness only pointed ahead to the time that God would reconcile His people to himself. It is in this study of the Tabernacle that "tangibles become teachable." It is where Old Testament realities that could be touched become New Testament principles that must be put into practice. It is through this study of the Tabernacle that we more fully understand the principle of "the actuality of the old depicts the spirituality of the new." In this study, we get to see Jesus Christ, His purpose and process of redemption, His plan of salvation, and His role as Savior. The Tabernacle is a study of God's masterpiece of typography. To come away from a study of the Tabernacle as an expert in the Tabernacle and still not understand how to approach and worship the Creator, and having not experienced Jesus during your study will basically have been an exercise in futility. The purpose of this study is not to acquire knowledge for the sake of having more knowledge. It is not to make one a Bible scholar on the Tabernacle. Instead, the purpose of this study is to reveal Jesus throughout the Tabernacle and to enhance both one's corporate and individual worship experiences. It is my sincerest hope and prayer that this book will give you a fresh perspective of worship, a better understanding of His holiness, and a renewed respect for the presence of God.
