What Does Fiftyloop Mean

The name started with the term “staying in the loop”, the founders of Fiftyloop decided to search the bible for a symbol or word that represented what they aimed to achieve, which was connecting Kingdom culture. They came across the structure of the tabernacle when Moses led the people of Israel out of Egypt. The tabernacle was a tent like structure that they would pack up and then set up when they made camp or departed to a new camp. The tabernacle was the temple of God, where the Holy Spirit or presence of God rested before Jesus came. On each end of the tabernacle tent there were fifty loops and fifty clasps holding the tabernacle together. Fiftyloop aims to do the same thing, which is connecting the body of Christ in the modern day. Essentially the name Fiftyloop was a perfect fit.
