Luke Moon is the Executive Director of the Philos Project. In this conversation, he lays out the ministry's vision and mission to foster peace. We get a view from the ground in Israel- the Church in the land, after October 7, is divided and needs our prayers. We also discuss the need for the American Church to return to its Hebraic roots and get involved in advocating for Israel- and pray for the...

Antinomianism. Two Ways Theology. End Times Prophecy. All are possible roadblocks to presenting the good news of Messiah to Jewish people today.

BJ Bechtel is Director of Inner City Impact, a ministry bringing the gospel and discipleship to K-12 students in Chicago and Cicero, a nearby suburb. In our conversation, we discuss how the gospel's transforming power to tear down the cultural differences that naturally separate these students also provides the power to bind them together in love as the One New Man. We also touch on the gospel's p...

We discuss Ephesians 2 and how the cross tears down the dividing wall of hostility, circumcising the heart and through the resurrection recreating us into a "new man". The dividing wall of hostility is made by bricks of pride that separate us from each other. The same dividing wall of sin created the veil that separated the "Holy of Holies", the presence of God, from unholy man. The veil was torn...

We explore the Biblical dwelling places of the LORD. Starting with heaven, then the Garden, the ark cover in the tabernacle, or the "mercy seat", and the ark cover in the first temple. Then Yeshua/Jesus asks the Father to send the Spirit to dwell in our hearts. Revelation discusses God's ultimate dwelling place described with His people on earth. We discuss God's ultimate dweilling place in Yeshua...

Special guest Pastor Duke White, Jr discusses reconciliation and its impact on both the individual and the culture. Ephesians 2 informs us of the need for reconciliation through the cross and the blood of Yeshua/Jesus in this spiritual war of good versus evil. Duke discusses the effect of this personal reconciliation and the gift to work for Kingdom culture on earth as it is in heaven.

We discuss the definition of reconciliation as well as the Biblical meaning. We are being reconciled with the Father through Jesus and the cross, and to each other as the body of Christ. We are called to love one another as Jesus loves us. This requires each of us to check our pride and humble ourselves in order to reconcile with one another. The foundation of reconciliation is Yeshua's blood on t...

Bob speaks to us from 50 years of experience, from his first belief in Yeshua as Savior to his recent attendance at the Lausanne Conference on Jewish Evangelism.

We discuss the importance of unity in the body of Messiah. Pastor Fakhri tells how he came to plant a church among Arabs and was forsaken by the group that had called him.

Today, the Arab church in Richmond shares pulpi...

We discuss 1John and the meaning of "perfect love casts out fear." John 15:13-14 Jesus said: "Greater love has no man than this: that a man lay down his life for his friends. You are My friends if you do whatever I command you." When Yeshua/Jesus lay down His life for us, He demonstrated perfect love. Love that demonstrates Hebrews 2:14-15: "so that through death He might destroy him who has the p...

We discuss John 15 and John 17 from a point of view of One New Man. Yeshua/Jesus at the Last Supper (Passover Seder) when he institutes the sacrament of communion states that He is the vine and His Father is the vinedresser. Healthy branches produce much fruit! Yeshua tells us many times to abide in him. "Abide in me, and I in you." To abide in his love means to follow His commandments as He has f...

Pastor Cary Paulk, adjunct professor of Biblical Studies at Regent University, is our special guest. Lee and Cary discuss reconciliation of Christians and Jews/Israel as Paul reveals in Romans 11.

Rabbi David Wein is Rabbi at Tikvat Israel, a messianic congregation in Richmond, VA. In our conversation, Rabbi David discusses replacement theology or supersessionism, the prevalent salvation history found in churches today.

A resurrection Sunday discussion of Yeshua's victory over death; in it we discuss what the Resurrection of Yeshua means theologically, as well as its meaning for us in daily walking out our faith. The Resurrection of Yeshua stands as the Father's stamp of approval on the Son's life. The Resurrection is so vital to the Christian story that without it, there is no Christian faith, no justification,...

Leviticus is the worship manual the Lord provided for a redeemed people. In it, the Spirit tells us about God's holiness, God's presence, and his provisions for atonement. In light of these truths, Leviticus lays out the patterns of living that will allow a holy God to live in the midst of people still struggling to be God's holy nation. In a discussion about the five sacrifices, we see the perfec...

We arrive at the end of the book of Exodus and discuss the summary of the themes. The book starts in Egypt with the Israelites as slaves, and God calls Moses to set His people free, to redeem a people for Himself. We discuss the major themes, from slavery to glory. We are saved by grace and are instructed in the Law of obedience, how to live with the Holy God in our midst. "If you love Me then you...

Reflecting on our 1 year anniversary: We are a ministry of reconciliation. The Old and New Testament is one book and Yeshua, Jesus, is throughout all of it. Our God is infinitely relational and we have learned from each other's reading of the scripture. God is at work. We have studied the Torah from the point of view of Yeshua, which means salvation. God's plan for redemption through Yeshua has be...

We study and discuss the character of God as revealed to Moses in Exodus 34:6-7. First, we discuss the rebellion of the Israelites and how quickly they turned from the commandment not to make graven images. Aaron fashioned the golden calf but dismissed his personal responsibility. We talk about the "stiff necked people", unwilling to take the yoke. Moses pleads and intercedes for this people and f...
