╫ A New Kingdom Has Arrived - The Acts Series (Chapter 1-2) [PODCAST]

I'm excited to announce the Acts Series! In this coming series, we will be going through the entire Book of Acts! My hope is that you'll realize the same thing I did when I first studied this book seriously: When I looked at my own life, and the lives of other believers around me, something was clearly missing. The wonders, the salvations, the generosity of Acts was as from another world. A Kingdom has come upon the Earth and a nation of priests arose to continue Yeshua's mission. Instead of simply staring into heaven, they were restoring the garden upon Earth as Yeshua called them to. Join me in this series, coming soon! Realize what has felt missing!

More fighting, arguments, and mean words are exchanged than anywhere else. In fact, we often can't imagine some of these things uttered in the "real world."

╫ VENGEANCE IS MINE: The Great Error of Jacob's Sons - Torah Portion: Vayishlach [PODCAST]

There are few things as devastating as a betrayal, an attack on the innocent, or a slanderous lie.

Episode Notes

There are few things as devastating as a betrayal, an attack on the innocent, or a slanderous lie. Perhaps that is why our first desire is to often take revenge on the perpetrators. Jacob’s sons avenged their sister Dinah’s rape, but were they in the right? How are we to react when we, or someone we love, is wronged?

Torah Portion: Vayishlach / He sent / וַיִּשְׁלַח
