The Spiritual Exercises

Kay’s podcast on Paul being false is long and hope from one out of context scripture to the next. I love Kay. I think she makes a lot of great points. And Christianity does not have a righteous or correct argument because they do not understand Kay’s main issue. Does Paul teach against God’s laws? If you say yes, you’ve just made Paul a false teacher. Kay says yes. Christianity says yes. But does...

Let’s talk more about how Western Christianity makes agreement with the doctrines of demons. And what about Paul? Is he a false prophet? I could and may do an entire podcast on this. Blessings my friends! This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit rachela.substack.com

This is part 2 of my series on covenant relationship and where Christianity may be enacting adulterous behaviors toward our Messiah. Yeah, I know. Sounds judgmental. But what if it’s true? If we love the Lord with all of our heart, then we need to stop leaning on our own understanding and let the Bible define relationship for us. Especially relationship with God. This discussion about wisdom will...

Why does food sacrificed to idols come up so much in the Bible? Why is food so prevalent throughout Yeshua’s teachings? Why does the Bible teach that food is part of ceremony and covenant and yet, in most Churches, we only get a small/skewed discussion about this with something called, "Communion”? We are missing something. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other sub...

In this podcast I deal with common issues around Bible verses in the NT that seem to claim that God no longer cares if we obey some of His commands. After many conversations with Christians, these are the most commonly used verses to argue against God’s Feast Days, Sabbath days and Food laws. I hope this will be helpful for those of you who come across these discussions and that you will be able t...

It is mind-blowing how consistent God is and how He leaves beautiful markers for us on our journey through the Bible to teach us concepts that sometimes give us trouble when we are ignoring His symbolism. The colors used in the Tabernacle, in Creation, and in Yeshua’s teachings tell us exactly what He requires for His covenant people. I could have done SOOOO much more with this, but it was getting...

This is, by no means, a complete teaching. This is for the beginner and even then, it could have gone a very long time. Why do the actual holidays of Yeshua matter? How do we observe them today? Where do we see them in Scripture? Why they are different than what Christianity’s traditions teach. If you are looking to observe the commanded Holidays found in the Bible this year, (and observed by our...

Once you see it, you cannot unsee it. I love my brethren in Christianity. Dearly. And think they do massive amounts of good (even when the institutions seem to be destroying entities led by wolves). But there is an aspect to Christianity that continues to astound me: Christianity teaches that Yeshua got rid of Himself at the cross. It teaches that David, Solomon, Jeremiah, Isaiah, Daniel, they all...

Christianity has obliterated the understanding the Bible gives of the story of Jews and Israel and our identity as Believers. And yes, this affects questions about the land, about the purpose of the land, the constant fighting over the land. There is the land of Israel, the physical lineage of Israel, and the family of God that is Israel. No wonder there is confusion. And yes, the land of Israel p...

Hello! I wanted to do a quick peak into chiastic structure, numbers, and some of the deeper meanings reflected in the numbers given in the Bible. How they relate to our bodies, how they share the gospel in stories that seem like they are about something else and more. Thank you for being here, listening and supporting. Know you are created in the Image of God and LIVE IT! Blessings, Rachel This is...

The reasons you're hearing that Christmas is not Biblical. An education for the curious, the open, and those who want to better understand the argument. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit rachela.substack.com

With prophetic messes discouraging Believers and political entanglements distracting them, it’s time we hammer out our identity and history to buffer against the winds of news and social media. This one understanding will change you forever… it will also change your understanding of Scripture and prophecy. Christians seem to think the term, “Christian” is enough to establish identity. They think t...

I have a handful of folks around who are questioning the status of Jesus as God and as one with God. While I can see that The Father has roles that make Yeshua subservient, I don’t have an issue with that. My role as mother is preceded by my role as human and woman. I serve these roles in the many other roles I take on. Cook, maid, jokester, friend… The roles described in the triune nature of G-d...

Tough truths that we are all having to come to grips with as we watch our worlds crumble around us. How can this be happening? What is happening? What does the Bible have to say about these systems? What are we supposed to do? This is just a small primer on this topic to whet your whistle and get you started on your own journey. -Symbolism -Religious systems -History -Heresy This education has bee...

***(The beginning of this podcast is fraut with a few technical issues. We fix that fairly quickly and get into a seamless session for ya. Patience appreciated)*** Today I talk with Amber Alcoser, President of Messianic Lighthouse Aglow in Golden, CO. For the past year I’ve been thinking about the baptism of the Holy Spirit, how it is described in Scripture and how little I’ve seen it in modern Ch...

Are you ready for a work of the Holy Spirit in your life? I know I’ve been ready and been feeling a call to dig into what the Spirit is doing in the Church. I’m finding extraordinary synergy among the people of G-d regarding how Adonai is approaching relationship with His Church. How to we get to that place of healing, wholeness, submission and change? Love you my friends. Let’s start this discuss...

I’m offering here what I’ve discovered so far as it pertains to the prophetic or at least, alarming, news of the day. I find most Believers have no idea what the Jews are doing with the red heifers, they don’t understand the relationship between Judah and Israel and the Church. And all of this to our detriment. We have need of understanding but Pastors and teachers seem to have gone missing or are...

Welcome back friends! I have felt ready to put together another podcast for you based on some new, exciting discoveries. There is no doubt in my mind we are entering times prophesied in Scripture as information pours out from the Heavens and is shared so quickly across the globe. In the mess and the mix of all the discussions and news, entertainment, social media and AI chatbots, I hope my message...

Anna Grissom. I met her through a friend in her senior year of high school. I remember her shy demeanor and sweet smile as we discussed doing some vocal lessons. She would come to my house to improve her voice and as I got to speaking with her, I learned she was a treasure trove of talent. An amazing dancer, great student, musician and graphic designer. The last of which caught my ear as I was loo...

Bless the Lord Oh My soul! Let all that is within me bless His Holy name! May peace and wholeness and blessing and a shedding of all the worldly burdens be your testimony in 2024. I’ve been so grateful for the opportunity to share with you to this date. Thank you for listening. In love, Rachel This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus...

I’m thrilled to bring you an interview from a mature Believer in the Lord and a servant-heart in His Kingdom. This discussion delves into the works of the Holy Spirit as well as the position of women in the Church (you know I want to continue that discussion often). Amber brings a mature and wise view to how the Spirit is working and how we can stop being afraid of what the Lord may be doing and w...

Welcome to my sister, y’all! We are a no nonsense kind of family when it comes to honest discussions and you may catch some of that as Jess and I delve into a difficult and sometimes divisive topic. Jess Lahitou has a wonderful column (She is a fabulous writer) with Fanfare Magazine called, Motherhood on Camera. Check it out here: Motherhood On Camera Jess is a legit writer and a master of the Eng...

Why is this time of year so hard on people? * holiday stressors * loneliness * less sunlight * changes in schedule * sugar everywhere * rise in illness * a thousand other things… For whatever reason, this time of year can be a strain on people. For many, the internal battle for meaning and purpose rears its ugly head most powerfully around the memories and sentimentalities of Christmas. This year,...

My book, Jesus Was Not A Modern Day Christian, is available on Amazon if you are interested in reading it. Many of you have asked for an audiobook version and here, in my own way, I’m attempting to fulfill that request. Eschatological Disaster As we look at major shifting in the Middle East, I’ve been surprised that, in my lifetime, eschatology, good eschatology, really matters. All of a sudden, p...

I hope you enjoy the second half of the chapter on worship from my book, Jesus Was Not A Modern Day Christian. This book was a labor of love, in every sense, love is at the core of our obedience to G-d. To understand how to love G-d and others, the way Scripture defines, is the treasure and journey that we all pursue. We often just head in the wrong direction and let our pride trip us up. I tie to...
