  • The Baby Boomers’ Messianic Movement
    Apr 30 2021
    The modern Messianic movement is a first-generation movement: birthed in the 1960s and ’70s. But that first generation of pioneers are ageing, however, and a new generation — our generation of Millennials — must rise up to take up the mantle. As the Millennial generation takes the torch, we recognize challenges in Messianic movement the Boomers have left to us: fundamentalism, rigidity, majoring on minors, a lack of critical thinking, failing to deal with issues relevant to today’s generation, an inability to plan for the future. In this episode, John and I discuss these challenges and propose reasonable paths forward to help modern Messianics navigate these difficulties.

  • The Messianic Passover
    Mar 25 2021
    John & Judah discuss Passover as a defining moment in God’s redemptive story. The Passover event ripples throughout history: The Torah is shaped by it. “You are not to oppress the foreigner, for you were once foreigners in the land of Egypt.” It shapes The 10 commandments. “I am the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.” Passover themes of redemption and Exodus show up throughout the Bible. “The days are quickly coming,” declares Adonai, “when it will no longer be said. ‘As Adonai lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.’ Rather, ‘As Adonai lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north and from all the lands where He had banished them.’ So I will bring them back into their land that I gave to their fathers.” Passover plays a crucial role in the Gospels, as Yeshua’s crucifixion takes place during Passover week. The Gospel of John records Yeshua as the Passover lamb whose sacrifice atones for the sin of humanity. Suffice to say, Passover may be the transformative, seminal event of the entire Bible, an event eclipsed by no other barring perhaps the resurrection itself. In this podcast, John and Judah dig into the themes of Passover. We discuss how Passover contains additional meaning for Messianic believers, as Messiah himself imbued the feast with new meaning and symbolism. We also discuss how Messianics ought to handle the delicate subject of Easter and how it relates to Passover. Enjoy, friends! And חג פסח שמח! Happy Passover, friends! I sincerely hope you’ll remember the work of the Lord in ages past on Passover, both in the Exodus and the Messiah.

  • Don’t Share That! Avoiding Messianic Misinformation in the Age of YouTube
    Mar 5 2021
    Judah and John discuss the pervasive problem of misinformation in the Messianic movement. Whether it’s laypeople sharing misleading videos from non-credible sources, or Messianic and Hebrew Roots teachers putting out sensational, misleading, or outright false teachings, the Messianic movement is struggling with misinformation in the information age. This leads to the secular world discrediting individuals – subverting their witness – and even discrediting the Messianic movement and our message about the Messiah. How can laypeople and non-experts in the Messianic movement know what’s real and what’s fake, what’s Biblical and what’s opinion? We discuss how to be better, wiser, discerning disciples in the age of YouTube.

Renewed my faith in the faith!

This is the discussion I have been hoping to have with others in the Messianic Jewish faith. To me, the word, “Jewish,” is as essential to its message as, “Messianic.” Yet, it is, to a great extent, missing in the community I know. Politically, there needs to be room for different opinions in the faith. None of us can pronounce the name of the father, yet we all strive to do his will and grow closer to him. People will always draw different conclusions about secular matters, and disagree on some spiritual points. Yet, we can still share a strong faith. Like genetic diversity, a diversity of thoughts and opinions can only enrich a true faith, in my opinion. We share the same religious beliefs, yet there can be many paths to the same destination. This podcast is illuminating, and gives me hope for the future! I was inspired by the respect paid to the Jewish intellectual tradition, a treasure trove of knowledge and wisdom for the people. I have been studying neurobiology, and the more I science I learn, the more I see our creator in the findings. I’m just a social worker trying to understand things like addiction, and the seat of conscience and spirituality, in the human brain. Yet, I have heard more qualified medical professionals and natural scientists say the same thing…that the more they learn, the less skeptical of the notion of spirit they have become. I was blown away by their openness to matters such as the extraterrestrial question and the vastness of the universe, as well. I was starting to drift away from the faith, because I felt like I was announcing myself as a flat-earther wherever I go. Mention of Messianic Judaism raises a lot of eyebrows, in my field. I have never cared about being different, yet I do care about alienating ethnic and Orthodox Jews, in our religion and in the world, in general. What I have heard here leads me to believe we are truly growing as a movement. I am left feeling restored, validated, fired up, and hopeful. This is a timely response to concerns about the accessibility of our faith to the Jewish people, today’s youth. The intellectual tradition is not at odds with the faith, and is a source of great vitality within it.
