While we all may believe we have a calling of God in the Kingdom, a specific role to fulfill, it can often be hard to internalize and really believe that we do. It can also be very challenging to sift through all of the baggage we carry and get to a place where we can […]

Are you, or have you run into “new to Torah” folks who are incredibly annoying, disrespectful, and arrogant in their new-found knowledge? Did you know this is a natural phenomenon that we can study so that we better know how to navigate it? It’s called the Dunning-Kruger Effect and it’s what today’s episode is all […]

Following up on last week’s episode, we are continuing our discussion on priorities in the lives of the Patriarchs. What is it that consistently caused the younger to gain the blessing reserved for the older? What exactly is this blessing and how do we fit into this beautiful, ancient story?

In this week’s episode, we delve into this week’s Parsha and the story of Jacob and Esau. Why is this story so contentious? It’s a story of Ikar, Tafel, and what is the priority.

In this week’s episode, we are tackling the fundamental challenge of most people…identity. It is a hard and elusive roadblock to our growth and health in Messiah, and today, we consider some “new to us” ways of thinking through our God-given identity.

As the feast of Sukkot concludes and before we move on in our minds to the next Feast, we want to examine what Sukkot means and how we should carry the truths and experiences of Sukkot ahead, building our growth and maturity.

In this week’s episode we do a survey of Parsha Ki Tavo.

In this week’s episode, we take a look at Yeshua’s declaration that we are the “salt of the earth”. We have many lessons and sermons on this Scripture, but how deeply have we looked into this from a Temple perspective? “Salt of the earth” could mean a very specific thing that we’ve not seen before.

In this week’s episode, we talk about the depth and intricacies of Biblical justice.

Shalom. In this week’s episode, we are in Parsha Ekev and dealing with the question, “What does your God require of you?”

This past weekend, our Jewish brothers and sisters mourned and fasted in memory of the darkest day in Jewish history. How many of us know about it? How many of us care? What is Tisha B’Av and why should we care? All of that and more in this week’s episode.

Shalom everyone! In this episode of IBR, we are talking through the beginning of Parasha Pinchas. How is it that Pinchas gets to basically get away with wanton murder? Some new information may help us solve this perplexing question. Also, can we take from Pinchas’ lead and take matters of judgement into our own hands? […]

In today’s episode, we begin in last week’s parsha, go back to Genesis, before finally arriving in this week’s parsha, Korach. There is an interesting theme that. flows through the entirety of Scripture…that God focuses His voice on a nation’s leaders.

Parsha Shelach is packed with events, beginning with the sending of the spies. While there are many questions that surround this event, our topic today is going to focus on one phrase of the ten spies about grasshoppers. We can’t help but compare and contrast ourselves with these spies and how we see ourselves affects […]

Shavuot often doesn’t get it’s fair share of attention. How often do we celebrate it and move on to the next festival? Just because it’s a one day festival doesn’t mean it lacks importance and relevance and isn’t worthy of our complete and total attention and observance. Shavuot’s impacts should also be realized each and […]

Let’s face it, by the end of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, most of us are ready to be done and can’t wait to sink our teeth into a big, doughy pizza. But did you know that there has been a long standing tradition among some religious Jews to hold a seder at the end […]

In this week’s episode, we are continuing to expand our understanding of Passover. May the wonder and challenge that is Passover continue to shape our actions and responsibilities as we protest injustice, hopelessness, and the oppression of empire.

In this week’s episode, we spend the entire show talking about three key phrases in the beginning of this week’s parashat.

Love your enemies. Treat everyone with the same lovingkindness God has shown you. Both Scriptural commandments and very good advice, but how many find these harder to actually live out in your everyday life? In this episode, we talk about a new way to expand our understandings of these foundational, Godly qualities.

This week, we share a throw-back teaching on Parashat Emor from 2018. We often, much like the traditions we come from, focus on only a few “pet” Scriptures. These tend to be things about dietary laws, calendar, and the Name. In this teaching, we invite you to look past those Scriptures that are familiar and […]

In Parashat Kedoshim (Lev. 19), we are commanded to be holy as HaShem is holy. There are many ways to understand holiness and today we will explore an important aspect of holiness, how it is to be understood, and how we can live it out in our world.

There are many layers to the beautiful season of Passover. In these next two episodes, we will talk about the Exodus, Passover, and the giving of the Torah, as protest against the empirical ideal embodied in Egypt.

Parsha Sh’mini is a beautiful picture of the ultimate purpose of Scripture and the heart of God. In our everyday lives, we are on the constant cycle, some may say hamster wheel, of work days and weekends. We deal with the stresses of life all while longing for the rest of the weekend. In parsha […]

For so many Christians, we are obsessed with God’s call. This desire, while admirable, is often misplaced. Oddly, we spend our entire lives seeking God’s call, while never reading the book of Scripture titled, “He called”. In this week’s parsha, Vayikra, we are challenged by the first two words…”He called”.

Moses gathered the people to explain the commandments and instructions for the Tabernacle. After Moses finishes his explanation, the people leave. The first of these commandments is Shabbat. In this week’s episode, we want to discuss what happens between our weekly Shabbat. Are we working six days to bring Kingdom?
