Cleaning the House, Pt 1
So it’s time to clean the house…. No, not just because it is spring— which it is—but because Pesach, or Passover, is fast approaching. The day of Passover is immediately followed by the Feast of Unleavened Bread, a time rich in significance for us in Messiah. So, yes, we concentrate on the spiritual significance of the search for and removal of “leaven” from our homes.…
Rejoicing in the Word Made Flesh
Last week our Shabbat School lesson was about the Feast of Sukkot. This coming Shabbat we will learn all about Sh’mini Atzeret and Simchat Torah.
Faces of the Kingdom: David
Few names in Scripture carry as much weight as David’s — the shepherd boy turned giant-slayer, a fugitive turned king, and the ancestor through whom Messiah Himself would come. He’s one of the most well-known figures in the Bible, remembered for his courage, his worship, and his covenant with God. However, the story that arguably shaped his legacy most…
Faces of the Kingdom: Jeremiah
Today we meet a prophet who was broken, rejected, and battered by the very people he was sent to serve, and yet he never stopped speaking. He was a man whose life reads less like a triumphant hero’s journey and more like a preview of the suffering Messiah who would come centuries after him…What does it look like to be chosen for something costly before you ever had…
Celebrating the LORD’s Feasts
Last Shabbat we learned all about how the LORD showed the Philistines that He was the One True G-d after they had taken the Ark of the Covenant. Next shabbat we start some special Shabbat School Lessons for the Holy Days because next Shabbat is Rosh Hashanah.
Meeting the One True G-d
This week in Shabbat school we learned about how the Israelites made a big mistake and the Ark of the Covenant was captured by the Philistines. Next week we will see how ADONAI showed the Philistines that He was the one True G-d
Faces of the Kingdom: Deborah
What does it look like to hold real power, and yet deny all the credit and give it to the One who truly deserves it all?… Deborah was a prophetess, a judge, and the military voice of an entire nation, and yet, in the very moment she’s handed the plan for victory, the first thing out of her mouth is a warning that none of the glory will belong to the man…
Losing the Ark
This last week in Shabbat School we talked about how Samuel as a young boy learned to listen to the voice of Adonai and how we can also. Next week we learn about when the Philistines captured the Ark of the Covenant.
Hearing from the LORD
Last week in Shabbat School we learned that we can be faithful servants to ADONAI or unfaithful servants. We have to make a choice. This coming week we learn about Samuel hearing from ADONAI.
Faces of the Kingdom: Isaac
A famine has settled over the land, the kind that would send most men running for the safety of Egypt, but Isaac chooses to stay. Adonai tells him not to go down to Egypt, but to remain in the land, and so he does… Have you ever heard a promise from God that felt impossible, and had no idea how long you’d be waiting, or what you were even supposed to do while you…
Choosing to Obey
Last Shabbat we learned from the story of Hannah and Samuel about the importance of keeping your promises. This coming week we are going to learn about making choices between serving ADONAI and living however we please
