As King David said in Psalms 51, “I was bought forth in iniquity and in sin my mother conceived me.” If true, how can we as sinners ever come clean before the Lord? This Sabbath, I will be concluding our series on the Book of Ephesians by covering chapters 5:1-6:11. Amazingly, this text correlates…
Many times, people want to define themselves by what they do. Though is this a Biblical model? Are we merely an expression of a scripted label or is there something more profound? Over the next few weeks, I would like to step away up from trying to explain Torah’s sacrificial system and instead, approach…
Over the last few Sabbaths, a number of people have asked “how to keep” the soon coming Passover and Feast of Unleavened.

Throughout Torah, we can read about the personal strains within the anointed priesthood of Aaron. Those struggles included being swayed by Israel to build a golden calf and losing his two sons due to their disrespect towards YHWH. Like us, his battles were real. In his example, we can see that no matter…
Shalom and many blessings , Please consider our invitation for you to join the Robert Villa discussion February 20-21. It is meant to be a weekend of insightful understanding. One thing I have appreciated over the years regarding Hebrew Roots, is that we have all been willing to study and ask questions. This event…

As you meet in homes this week, I want to challenge you to look at B’shalech in a different light. Typically, B’shalech is about the miracle of Pharoah letting go of Yah’s people, but let’s turn it around this week and ask the question, “What happens when we let go of what was and into…
