20 Sep 2023 | The Best Rosh Hashanah Offering | 00:23:11 | |
On Rosh Hashanah, we simultaneously meet regret and hope with the sound of the shofar. Both are powerfully pointing us to be the people God intends us to be. | |||
26 Sep 2023 | Tying The Knot | 00:26:06 | |
It’s Shabbat Shuvah, the Shabbat of Return. One last step remains on the repentance road we’ve been walking—one last rock to confront, and then we can look to tie the knot with our Father and our King. You need to hear this message to understand! | |||
03 Oct 2023 | Sukkot - The Heart of the Matter | 00:28:47 | |
The most famous part of the Sukkot celebration has to do with the sukkah, the temporary dwelling. But there is another component of the holiday which is mentioned even before God commands us to dwell in Sukkot. It called the arba minim, the four kinds, and it has a lot to say about you, your heart, and your joy. We’ll investigate that story in this teaching. | |||
11 Oct 2023 | The Shadow of the Almighty | 00:30:34 | |
How high can the walls of your sukkah be? It’s an actual discussion we find in rabbinic literature. Our first response might be, “Who cares?!” As we close out the fall holidays, this message investigates what this seemingly trivial argument can reveal to us about ourselves. | |||
18 Oct 2023 | Hatred In Your Heart? | 00:43:29 | |
Anyone who has even the slightest connection to Israel is reeling from the recent horrific attacks. For those who are strongly connected, there’s a chance that anger and even hatred are parts of these emotions. Is that okay? Should we feel bad about our emotional response to the hatred that others have shown? How do we deal with these negative emotions in light of our mission and calling as children of God and disciples of Yeshua?

24 Oct 2023 | Living In A World Filled With Hamas | 00:41:38 | |
The Torah says that during the days of Noah, the world became corrupt and was filled with … hamas. Yes - Hamas. Our Torah portion addresses our present situation and give us answers if we look deep enough. Let's take a look at this ancient foe and see what steps we can take to overcome it together. | |||
30 Oct 2023 | Israel and the Turning Tide | 00:47:39 | |
It was inevitable that some, maybe much of the world would begin to see Israel negatively as this war has continued. It’s always this way. But the turning tide shares much in common with the antisemitism and hatred of Jewish people that we hoped had died with the Nazis. It’s imperative that the facts in this war are discussed and shared. This message intends to prepare you to be an informed advocate for Israel and the Jewish people. | |||
06 Nov 2023 | Isaac Not Ishmael | 00:39:56 | |
The expulsion of Hagar and Ishmael is a difficult read. Why do we need to know all the details of this event? Why does God allow Sarah to separate them from Abraham? What does this story have to do with Arab-Israeli relations today? This message offers some provocative answers for these questions. | |||
14 Nov 2023 | Chayei Sarah - The Power of Abraham’s Purchase | 00:30:46 | |
Israel has been “ruled” by a diverse cast of characters throughout history. Many empires have declared ownership of the land, but one people has a legal claim to it, politically and biblically. Who might you think that would be? Take a listen and share this message with others. | |||
20 Nov 2023 | Builders. Not Bystanders. | 00:48:19 | |
The Bible is book of building, giving not taking. In a society built on consumption, the idea of building a better world has seemingly lost its luster. But the stories of the Bible call us to the task. Shalom Macon intends to bring that back, to live in service to people, to be builders not bystanders. Find out what that means in this week’s teaching.

04 Dec 2023 | Joy To The World | 00:28:41 | |
What is Hanukkah? The Talmud asks the question, but today, many Christians are too. There are meaningful themes of the past associated with the Feast of Dedication, but it’s the the powerful message of hope for the future that makes the answer to that question one worth knowing.

12 Dec 2023 | Holy War | 00:47:53 | |
Hanukkah was a holy war, if by holy, we mean directed by God. There is currently a different kind of holy war being waged, and God is certainly not directing this one. It is imperative, not just for disciples of Yeshua, but for all of humanity, to be aware of this enemy and to stand united against it.

18 Dec 2023 | Soul Threads: Garments of the Soul | 00:38:51 | |
Every day we put on different clothes based on what we are doing or how we are feeling. But have you ever thought about putting clothes on your soul? It may sound like an odd concept, but we actually do it every day, and sometimes we show up in the wrong outfit. Join us to find out what these "soul threads," or garments of the soul are.

25 Dec 2023 | Don't Worry. Be Happy. | 00:43:01 | |
If we look around, there are so many unhappy people in the world. It seems everyone is looking for happiness, but very few find it. This is a message for anyone who desires to live their life to the fullest. It integrates psychological insights with biblical teachings, offering a comprehensive view of achieving true, lasting happiness.

03 Jan 2024 | Bless or Seek? | 00:21:47 | |
What is higher purpose of life? Most experts argue its not status, wealth, or accumulating expensive cars, houses, shoes or watches, but rather finding peace and contentment. What is it that gives us the sense of contentment and accomplishment we seek? To Bless or Seek. That is the question. Let's explore the answer.

09 Jan 2024 | The Strength Of A Woman | 00:31:51 | |
The “Bridegroom of Blood” episode in the Book of Exodus is undoubtedly one of the most peculiar events in the Torah. Various interpretations of this incident exist within Jewish thought. This message delves into a couple of traditional perspectives behind Zipporah's actions, but also introduces a novel interpretation that portrays her as a woman of faith and courage.

15 Jan 2024 | Pharaoh's Hard Heart | 00:34:48 | |
There are incidents in the Bible that sometimes cause people to question the motives of God. Pharaoh’s hard heart presents one of those challenges and sets the stage for the argument over free will versus predestination. Is there an answer if we look at the Jewish perspective? This message explores the story behind the story and offers an explanation that shows the true nature of our God.

22 Jan 2024 | Plagues With Purpose | 00:33:05 | |
Why did God choose to bring the 10 plagues upon Egypt? Was there not a better way than the death of innocent children? Were the Egyptians treated unfairly by the God of justice? This week’s teaching explorers the purpose behind the last three devastating plagues in the story of the Exodus.

29 Jan 2024 | The Call Of Courage — The Story You May Have Never Heard | 00:31:04 | |
Jewish tradition and commentary have dug deeply into the biblical texts for millennia. From the fruit of that labor, we are sometimes privileged to see stories beneath the story. This week presents an unknown hero of the Exodus. A name and a lesson that—after this teaching—you’ll always remember.

05 Feb 2024 | From Jethro To Jesus | A Lesson of Responsibility & Delegation | 00:29:09 | |
The Torah provides a never ending source of lessons for life. In this weeks portion, Jethro teaches Moses, one of the most important leadership lesson: delegation. But when we read Jethro’s question to Moses, we discover that he’s teaching a lesson not just for Moses, but to the nation as a whole. A lesson that Yeshua would later echo for all of his disciples, and one that certainly still applies to us today.

12 Feb 2024 | From Sinai To Slavery | 00:37:20 | |
Last week’s Torah portion was the climax of the Jewish experience after the Exodus — Mt. Sinai and the giving of the Torah. This week we find ourselves following up that spiritual crescendo with the Mishpatim (“ordinances”). And to be honest, they don’t seem to start off well do they? How do religious people derive any benefit from understanding slavery laws? If these are included here, how can any of the laws in the Torah be relevant? We’ll discuss a tough topic in this week’s teaching.

26 Feb 2024 | The Holy Bat Phone | Parashat Tetzaveh | 00:31:50 | |
Parsha Tetzaveh primarily focuses on the vestments of the High Priest. However, nestled within its verses, we find a singular verse that describes a unique communication tool with God: the Urim and Thummim. This week's lesson explores its purpose and use, its tragic loss, and a form of its reappearance in the lives of Yeshua's disciples.

04 Mar 2024 | The Gold In The Cow | Parashat Ki Tisa | 00:34:09 | |
This week, we delve into one of the Torah's most challenging sections: the golden calf incident. Following this event, there's a curious moment when the people “strip off their jewelry.” At first glance, this act may seem minor, but it marks a critical turning point in Israel's relationship with God. This teaching will illuminate the significance of this moment and its implications for Israel's spiritual journey.

11 Mar 2024 | The Eternal Gift of the Sabbath | Parashat Vayakhel | 00:33:26 | |
This week's parsha witnesses Israel moving past the golden calf incident and beginning anew the work on the Tabernacle. However, before the work commences, we encounter a brief reminder from HaShem to the people about the Sabbath. The traditional explanation for its placement here is compelling, but in this message, Rabbi Damian explores a deeper meaning behind the inclusion of these verses and explains just how powerful they may have been to the children of Israel.

01 Apr 2024 | Putting on the Kingdom | 00:40:32 | |
As we delve into the book of Esther, we encounter an intriguing statement describing what she wore before approaching the king unannounced. Many translations oversimplify this moment by referring to her attire as "royal robes." In this teaching, we will uncover what Esther truly wore, according to Jewish sources, and we will examine other significant biblical figures who wore similar garments and transformed the world as a result. And as disciples of Yeshua, we are called to wear similar garments.

Imposter Syndrome. Although you may not have heard of it, you've probably experienced it. No matter how qualified you may be in reality, you feel inadequate and that at some point you are going to be exposed for the fraud you "really" are.

Did Yeshua come to disrupt the religious system of Judaism and replace it with a new religion called Christianity? He seemed to always be at odds with the religious people of his day. He confronted the religous authorities. He drove the money changers from the Temple. He contrasted the “old” way of doing things with his “new” way. But if that’s the case, why did Yeshua send the leper to the priests for inspection after he healed him? If he was already healed and Yeshua was coming to replace the priesthood—as many claim—why did he send him back to the priests “for a proof to them”? Was he really as much of a renegade as we’ve made him out to be? Let’s find out in this week’s 5 Minute Torah.

22 Apr 2024 | A Passover Problem | 00:33:22 | |
A “holiday” based on remembering slavery? When you really think about it, it’s kind of strange, right? And the Torah has dozens of verses commanding Israel to remember their slavery? Shouldn’t that be something to forget?! Is this the best origin story Israel could have hoped for? There must be more, right? Let’s explore.

29 Apr 2024 | The Lies We Believe | 00:42:53 | |
What lies have we told ourselves so long that they’ve become our truth, particularly the idea that, “This is just who I am”? It’s a universal truth that God loves you just the way you are. But it’s also true that He refuses to leave you that way. And, believe it or not, this is connected to our current season of counting the Omer between Passover and Shavuot. It isn’t just about numbers. It’s about anticipation and preparing ourselves to receive the Torah anew on Shavuot. If that’s the case, shouldn’t we be a different, “more improved” version of ourselves than last year? If so, how do we accomplish this?

We live in a world that has all but forgotten holiness. Although the world says it celebrates diversity, it only means diversity that is in opposition to godliness.

28 May 2024 | The Contradiction of Religion | 00:39:41 | |
The world is undeniably beautiful, with humanity contributing to this beauty through architecture, art, cuisine, and music for millennia. Each of us possesses a God-given spark of creativity to enhance this beauty. As disciples, we are called to create a unique kind of beauty in this life. Unfortunately, many have fallen short. While generations have crafted external, physical beauty in so many forms, they have often missed the mark on the most important beauty we can create as we live in the image of our Creator. There is a way to achieve both and Rabbi Damian will tell us how.

04 Jun 2024 | Enter The Narrow Gate | 00:38:23 | |
Many of us are prone to confirmation bias in our Bible study—reading a text we've encountered hundreds of times, believing we know exactly what it means, despite the context, and thereby confirming our interpretation. The problem is that often those interpretations are just plain wrong, or at least misguided or lacking. Many of Yeshua’s words and teachings are susceptible to confirmation bias, based on the long history of Christian interpretation. This week, we look at one of them and consider the background, context, and interpretations, all with the hope of being exceptional Yeshua followers!

Are rabbis always making up new rules? Do they uphold the Traditions of Men over the Word of God? Do they "Add to the Word of God?” You’ve probably heard this kind of criticism when you’ve introduced people to a Messianic Jewish perspective on the Scriptures. How have you handled it? If you’ve been looking for an easy way to address questions like these, stick around for this week’s 5 Minute Torah.

12 Aug 2024 | The Power of Tears - Finding a Meaningful Connection to Tisha B'Av | 00:39:55 | |
It's understandable why people don't "get into" Tisha B'Av, the saddest day on the Jewish calendar: It's all about sadness. And no one "wants" to be sad. So, how do we—and even more importantly, SHOULD WE—connect with this day that strips us of our joy and peace and goes completely against our nature? And does it do any good, anyway? Please join us as we discuss The Power of Tears.

16 Aug 2024 | 5 Minute Torah - Va'etchanan - Eating (Kosher?) Elephants | 00:07:30 | |
Have you ever been given a seemingly impossible task, whether by your job or by your family? It's so overwhelming that you just want to throw your hands up in the air and walk away.

19 Aug 2024 | Part 5 — Repaving The Romans Road: Original Sin | 00:40:27 | |
Ready to challenge everything you thought you knew about Romans? This week, we dive headfirst into Chapter 1, where Paul is often seen as presenting the universal condemnation of humanity and explaining our “original sin” nature. But what if there's more to the story? We'll unravel a different perspective that not only challenges this traditional view but also reveals the true foundation Paul is laying for the powerful messages that follow.

23 Aug 2024 | 5 Minute Torah - Eikev - The Making of a New Man | 00:10:35 | |
How does God judge all people equally or does He have different expectations for Israel versus the nations? By what criteria does He judge us and what standard does He hold us to? Are Gentiles obligated to the Torah the same as Jews? Paul talks about “One New Man,” but does that look like a Jew, a Gentile, or what—Frankenstein's Monster?

26 Aug 2024 | Part 6 — Repaving The Romans Road: The So-Called Jew | 00:47:58 | |
The traditional interpretation of Romans suggests that in Chapter 2, Paul shifts his focus to the sinfulness of the Jewish people. However, when we consider the rhetorical structure and flow of the letter, a very different and significant intention emerges behind Paul's words. In this teaching, we’ll uncover the true identity of the so-called Jew and what Paul is really addressing.

30 Aug 2024 | 5 Minute Torah - Re'eh - Rise of the False Prophets (Signs & Wonders) | 00:09:10 | |
Are there still True Prophets today? Today, there are people all around the world who claim to be prophets of God. They display signs & wonders, miraculous healings or physical manifestations that defy human reasoning. They speak prophetic utterances that come to pass just as they were spoken. How could these be anything other than men and women of God? Aren’t these signs of a true prophet? How do we know the difference between a True Prophet and a False Prophet?

02 Sep 2024 | Part 7 — Repaving The Romans Road: Works of the Law | 00:45:53 | |
In Romans chapter 3, Paul continues his dialogue with a critical conversational partner, introducing the term ‘works of the law.’ But can we trust the traditional interpretation that Paul is condemning the Torah as legalistic works for salvation? Or is Paul addressing his Roman audience, teaching them what they need to understand about the law? Find out in this week’s message.

10 Mar 2021 | The Jewish Jesus - Part 4: His Jewish Message | 00:46:09 | |
Last week we considered the background of Jesus teaching by looking at the Jewish root from which it sprung. This message discusses some specific examples — Sabbath, dietary laws, and even the message of the Gospel itself — to show how Jesus’ words stayed connected with the word of God spoken in Torah. And maybe more importantly, to show that he never set out to change what God has previously said, only to return his people to it. | |||
17 Mar 2021 | The Jewish Jesus - Part 5: Lord of the Sabbath | 00:40:39 | |
Did Jesus have the authority to change the Sabbath? The answer seems obvious, right? Ever heard it said that Jesus was a rebel, intent on tearing down traditions of men, and at war with the Jewish leaders of his time? Maybe you’ve also noticed that one of the main topics where Jesus seemed to come to blows with the Jewish leadership of his day was the Sabbath? He’d had enough of bondage and legalism that the common people were being put under and he was going to turn over some tables and fix the problem. And why not? After all, he’s Lord of the Sabbath. But this answer has serious implications that you might not have heard about. This message will make sure you do. | |||
24 Mar 2021 | The Jewish Jesus - Part 6: WWJD | 00:41:58 | |
WWJD? We’ve spent the last 5 weeks understanding what He would do—No, even better, what He did. That question has been answered. It’s in the Gospels. There’s a more important question—once we know what Jesus did, what are we going to do? The series' conclusion offers some insights and encouragement for our journey together in Messiah. | |||
30 Mar 2021 | Post-Pandemic Passover Peace | 00:30:55 | |
We’ve been through a lot over the last year. 2020’s Passover celebration was really anything but celebratory. That was then, this is now. Passover starts this Saturday night and after basically missing the holiday last year, what can we do in 2021 to make it the most meaningful seder we’ve had? Can a year of COVID help us be more grateful? It’s possible! | |||
06 Apr 2021 | A Meal For The Messiah | 00:25:23 | |
Yeshua’s disciples are looking forward to sharing a meal with him. It’s called the Wedding Feast of the Lamb and it’s going to be a doozy of a celebration. But what can we do until then? Shouldn’t we be living with excitement and expectation in the present? Of course, but how? Judaism has an answer and it’s a beautiful celebration connected to Passover, centered on Messiah, and filled with hope for redemption. | |||
14 Apr 2021 | The Death And Resurrection Of Time | 00:34:54 | |
Father Time has been murdered and you have 24 hours to find the killer. But little do you know that once the villain is apprehended, his victim will be miraculously resurrected from the dead. No, this isn't a murder mystery or an escape room. It's a lesson of missed opportunities and misplaced priorities. It's about a special time between Passover and Pentecost that contains blessings that many people miss out on. Can time die? Can it be resurrected? Join Darren Huckey as he explores this mystery and helps us learn a valuable lesson about Counting the Omer. | |||
21 Apr 2021 | Evidence Of The Spirit | 00:35:42 | |
The spring holidays of God’s calendar are in full swing and the Festival of Weeks is fast approaching. Most people know the holiday as Pentecost, celebrating the giving of the Holy Spirit. It’s a day of great significance in the community of Yeshua’s disciples. But there’s something missing. A Torah understanding will help us find it. This series will take us into a more meaningful celebration of God’s appointed time, Shavuot, and a more powerful experience with the Holy Spirit. | |||
30 Apr 2021 | Evidence Of The Spirit - Part 2: The Pentecostal Primer | 00:32:48 | |
One-fourth of the world’s Christian community is connected to some version of Pentecostalism. That means they have had, and still have, a LOT of influence on how the Holy Spirit has been understood. Is this good? Where did Pentecostalism derive their understanding? Has it affected our own? We should find out! | |||
04 May 2021 | Evidence Of The Spirit - Part 3: Modern Manifestations | 00:37:47 | |
In this continuing look at the Spirit of God, we discuss three reasons for the strong desire to “have” the Holy Spirit: excitement, energy, and experience. We also begin to explore the spiritual gifts in our modern times. | |||
12 May 2021 | Evidence Of The Spirit - Part 4: The Gifts | 00:47:47 | |
How do we use the gifts of the Spirit? They are so very important and they get a lot of recognition, supposed use, and … abuse. In Evidence of the Spirit, Part 4: The Gifts, we examine what the Holy Spirit is NOT. More than simply being critical, this is a heart-warming, personal approach to the work of the Holy Spirit. | |||
20 May 2021 | Evidence Of The Spirit - Part 5 | 00:40:17 | |
This is really what it all comes down to: What do we do with the Spirit we have received? All the talk of theology, history, and practice is useful in identifying how we’ve gotten to the current point of many people’s understanding of that answer. There are some problems with it as discussed. But what should the body of believers look like when the Spirit is functioning as intended. What does the fruit of the Spirit mean for us today? | |||
27 May 2021 | Israel Matters | 00:42:22 | |
Is Israel really the aggressor in the Middle East conflict? Is Israel really an apartheid state? Do Palestinians have any rights in Israel? Are Jews pulling the strings behind the economic rise and fall of nations the world over? Let's have some honest answers to these questions, rather than the uninformed social media bantering that has made its mark on millions of impressionable minds. Let's discover the truth about Israel and why Israel matters in God's economy. | |||
03 Jun 2021 | Got Milk - Part 12: Laying On Of Hands | 00:31:26 | |
The Fourth elementary principle is about the "laying on of hands." Simple, right? That’s how people get healed … Maybe there’s more to discuss? | |||
09 Jun 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven - Part 1: The Confusion | 00:37:45 | |
Where do we go when we die? This is THE question for so many people through the ages. It’s the question on the lips of the evangelist to the lost soul, “If you died today, do you know where you would end up?” And by most accounts, there are two answers—Heaven or Hell. This challenging, and likely controversial, series will evaluate and question what you think you know about life after death, heaven and hell, and eternal destiny. | |||
16 Jun 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 2: Progressive Revelation | 00:29:52 | |
Greek Philosopher, A.N. Whitehead once said, “The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato.” What if that’s true even in Judeo-Christian thought about heaven and hell? Could God actually speak through a 4th-century philosopher? We’ll see … | |||
24 Jun 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 3: Rabbis & Resurrection | 00:26:13 | |
As we’ve learned, progressive revelation contributed to the understanding of the soul in Second Temple Judaism. This way of thinking heavily influenced the period and its religious thinkers in another profoundly important area: the resurrection of the dead. | |||
01 Jul 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 4: Sheol, A Place for the "Dead" | 00:38:30 | |
When you begin to dig into it, the concept of the New Testament “hell” becomes quite confusing. To understand it, we need to investigate an earlier understanding of death and the hereafter as described in Jewish thought from the Tanach. | |||
05 Jul 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 5: Paradise & Punishment | 00:39:23 | |
Hades, Sheol, Tartarus, Hell, Gehenna … it’s all very confusing. How do we know what’s up? Well, we need to go down to figure out what’s up! This message takes a look at a prominent perspective in 2nd Temple Judaism on what awaits the soul after death. | |||
13 Jul 2021 | Confessions Of An Addict | 00:42:03 | |
Believe it or not, most people are addicted to something. It may not be drugs or alcohol. It could be television, Facebook, Snapchat, or a smartphone. What makes us addicted to these things and how can we turn those cravings into something positive? How can recognizing and confronting those addictions help us become better disciples of Yeshua? | |||
20 Jul 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 6: The Bosom of Abraham | 00:43:37 | |
The story of The Rich Man and Lazarus in Abraham’s Bosom has often been identified as the definitive picture of the afterlife according to Yeshua. From the idea of the “harrowing of hell” to the basis for belief in eternal conscious torment, so many post-mortem perspectives have been hatched here. Is this Yeshua’s final word on final destiny? We’ll see! | |||
28 Jul 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 7: If I Were A Rich Man | 00:36:47 | |
Continuing in our examination of Yeshua's parable of Lazarus And The Rich Man, we see a lot of overlap with the literature of greater Judaism and we learn several lessons that are a little unexpected. As we look deeply into this parable we’ll see that Yeshua's message was more about life before death than life after death. Come learn these important lessons with us. | |||
04 Aug 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 8: The Final Judgment | 00:40:58 | |
Matthew 25, John 5, and 1 Corinthians 15 all talk about the final judgment and what it will be like. But there are debates over how these passages should be interpreted. What will the Final Judgment be like and how should we understand Yeshua's and Paul's teachings on the subject? Only through looking at these passages and others with brutal honesty can we hope to truly understand anything about this difficult topic. | |||
11 Aug 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 9: The Formation of Hell | 00:40:05 | |
Thus far we’ve considered some of the early formations of the belief in the afterlife from a Jewish perspective. But these beliefs and theological attitudes began to change at some point in the early history of the believing community of disciples. One of our main developments centered on the fate of the wicked. This week continues our look at these emerging ideas and how they contributed to the formation of hell as it is known today. | |||
16 Aug 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 10: Burn In Hell | 00:50:51 | |
What happens after judgment? Particularly to the wicked? History offers a broad set of answers to this question, falling mainly within three theological camps. We’ll investigate a couple of them in this teaching. | |||
24 Aug 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 11: Salvation For All? | 00:36:20 | |
Eternal fire that burns, conditional immortality of the soul, oh my! We’re hitting the heavy stuff but there’s more to consider. Does God make a way for all to be saved? Meet the universalists. | |||
31 Aug 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 12: Judged By Their Deeds | 00:51:20 | |
The Great White Throne. Judgment in Revelation makes it clear that deeds have something to do with our last moments before our final destiny is announced. Judgment of the wicked makes sense but why would believers be there? This message explores the full significance of deeds for the righteous, the wicked, and the controversial “in-betweeners” with a final look at eternal judgment. | |||
10 Sep 2021 | Is Our Hope In Heaven? - Part 13: Choose Life | 00:31:18 | |
Choose Life is the conclusion of our series on the afterlife. Rabbi Damian wraps up this series by focusing on what matters most: how we live this life. Join us for this valuable conclusion to this challenging series and be encouraged to do what's important. | |||
14 Sep 2021 | Shabbat Shuvah - Say What You Need To Say | 00:22:40 | |
The Sabbath before Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) is called "Shabbat Shuvah," or the Sabbath of Return. It is a day that beckons us to consider the condition of our hearts before we enter the most holy day of the year. The Haftarah (reading from the Prophets) for this Shabbat says, "Take with you words and return to the LORD; say to him…" (Hosea 14:2). What does this mean? What are we supposed to say? What do you need to say? Don't miss your opportunity. | |||
03 Oct 2021 | Sukkot - Nailing Down Your Joy | 00:26:38 | |
Sukkot—The Feast of Tabernacles—is the "Season Of Our Joy." And it's only a few days away. But sometimes, joy can be difficult to muster, especially in a world that's falling apart around us. Join Rabbi Damian as he helps us "nail down" our joy in preparation for this Sukkot season. | |||
03 Oct 2021 | Christmas In September | 00:36:24 | |
It’s Christmas time again! Wait… What?! It’s not December 25th! Well, what is "Christmas?" It’s the traditional "celebration" of the birth of Jesus, right? Could it be that this celebration, the birth of Messiah, should be happening now? It’s possible… Join us and let’s explore! | |||
03 Oct 2021 | It's Hard To Be Humble: Seeing Greatness In Creation | 00:26:00 | |
The Midrash tells of a primordial clash between the two great luminaries—the sun and moon—over who would be greatest. It happened on the 4th day of creation. Later, we read the story of the disciples of Yeshua jockeying for position too, “Who is greatest in the kingdom?” The desire for greatness is inside all of us. And that’s a good thing if we know what greatness looks like. The moon has a message for us this week! | |||

18 Oct 2021 | Go To You - What Is Your Calling? | 00:30:40 | |
Who are you? What's your name? Simple questions on the surface until we see them through the lens of Abram's first test of faith in this week's Torah portion, Lech Lecha. There's another person inside of you that you really need to get to know. I'll make the initial introduction in this message! |
