Israel’s detractors want to make us think that Israel was founded on stolen Arab land. However, a quick look at the facts presents a different picture. In light of the current war with Hamas, we are rerunning this important episode in which Susan talks about the issue of land and the changes in the number of people living on the land to equip you to better articulate a response to this false accus...

Israel is at war, and many people have questions. There is also much disinformation being published on social media and taught in some universities. Today’s episode will equip you with a better understanding of the issues so you can give a response to friends and family. We also tell you what you can do in partnership with the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem. 🔔 Subscribe to receive a Sh...

This week I share a couple of observations from our year-long series through the Torah. First is God’s great understanding of the frailty of man and how He graciously gave us disciplines to keep us on the right path. The children of Israel would suffer when they went astray—but God is great, and His plan of redemption would move forward no matter what. The Bible tells the most amazing story from w...

The beautiful book of Deuteronomy, and the Torah, come to an end this week on a rather depressing note. But we know the rest of the story—what Moses and Joshua died not knowing. We admire their courage and faithfulness to God. We can also rejoice that the children of Israel are back in their homeland today and will realize all of God’s promises to their forefathers. So we rejoice over the Torah an...

The Feast of Tabernacles is the one feast in which the children of Israel were commanded to rejoice for a whole week! It is also the feast that is prophesied to be celebrated by all the nations during the Messianic era. There is much symbolism found in the activities during the Feast of Tabernacles and is full of reasons for celebration. 🔔 Subscribe to receive a Shabbat Shalom blessing each week!...

Yom Kippur is translated the “Day of Covering” but was also known as the Day of Judgment, because it was the day on which the High Priest stood before the Lord on behalf of the nation of Israel and made a sacrifice for the atonement of their sins. The New Testament uses this powerful concept to describe Jesus’ role and sacrificial death that did not just “cover” sin for another year but removed it...

This week the Jewish people will celebrate Yom Teruah—the day of the blowing of trumpets. The description of this day is a little vague, but deep meaning is found in the use of trumpets for calling the people to attention and announcing the start of something. Traditionally, this day begins a 10-day period of repentance leading up to Yom Kippur. But it hints at the day described in 1 Thessalonians...

The Jewish people have returned to their ancient homeland and are working hard to uncover hidden artifacts from the biblical time period. I will share about one exciting find that confirms a story we just read in Deuteronomy. The Bible itself is full of hidden gems of wisdom, and if we just care enough to spend time in its pages and dig a little deeper, we will be blessed. Moses told the people th...

God certainly promised tremendous blessings to be upon His people when they walked in obedience to Him. He also promised great hardship if they were to enter into this agreement with Him and then renege on it by disobeying its terms. This was the privilege and price of being His treasured people. But at the end of the day, it was their choice: blessing or curse. 🔔 Subscribe to receive a Shabbat S...

The commandments God gave to the children of Israel were not just about how to worship Him but how to live life—how to engage with the people and world around them. The laws covered religious and civil life, agriculture, business, family relationships—and on and on. As a result, Judaism believes obedience to these laws helps to make the world a better place. . 🔔 Subscribe to receive a Shabbat Sha...

The book of Deuteronomy reads like an ancient suzerain treaty between a king and his subjects, and most of it is a listing of the stipulations of the agreement—God’s commandments. Included was the establishment of a judicial system to help ensure justice for His people. It also included restitution because God knew His children would not be perfectly obedient—but He did require their love and alle...

Throughout Deuteronomy Moses continues to command the children of Israel to obey the terms of their covenant with God, and in return, they would be blessed. The choice is theirs’s whether to live such a way as to enjoy blessing or to live under a curse. But their obedience was not about simple legalistic ritual—it was about clinging to their God with a heart of love. 🔔 Subscribe to receive a Shab...

The children of Israel had a special calling and relationship with God—not because they were any more special than other people but because of God’s promises to their forefathers. They had been chosen long before, and their forefathers had entered a covenant with God. If they would live in obedience to the commandments—the terms of their covenant—they would be blessed. You and I can walk in those...

Moses is preparing a new generation of Israelites to enter their promised land, and he emphasizes to them the importance of the commandments they have received from God—they are wisdom and the key to a long life enjoying the promises of God. His children should honor and cherish His words, and their obedience to those commandments should be an expression of their love for Him. 🔔 Subscribe to rece...
