This week the war, already long-escalated, took another quantum leap toward finality. And there was more show trial, more nomination posturing and lies, and more revelation of utter corruption in any unconstitutional agency with three or more letters.

And yet, suggests Mark Call, there was an address by the president, that – during any other period of US history – would have been above-the-fold banner headlines in every news outlet on earth: the US has been riddled with election fraud. And it’s been covered up and lied about.

Co-host David Justice suggests that there was little if anything ‘new’ in the speech; we’ve — if we’ve been paying attention — knew almost all of that years ago.

And yet, somehow, there’s plenty of importance to ‘disagree’ about. Is it too late?

“Do Governments ALWAYS Lie?”

Or is it just the safe way to bet?

After all, even King David lied about at least one thing – his complicity in the murder of Uriah the Hittite, to cover up adultery. But maybe there is a bit of truth on occasion — after all, the “80/20 Rule” suggests it’s often THE most effective way to get the populace to swallow the propaganda, even though the “Big Lie” is usually in-play as well.

Today host Mark Call looks at the evidence, but more importantly – the Implications. And they are literally “life and death,” and getting more so by the day.

Have you maintained a faithful, straight walk in Torah? Or have you gotten “off the path” a little or a lot? Do you sense a call to return to the path, to Yahweh? As Rabbi Steve Berkson concludes this teaching series, he begins with Joel 2:12, where we see Elohim giving His people instruction on how to return to Him. As Rabbi Berkson points out, Yahweh expects those returning to Him to be serious about repairing the breach in the relationship.

• What is tearing your garments? Why does Elohim want a tearing of the heart instead?

• What does Elohim do to get your attention so that you return to the path?

In Jeremiah 32:37-42, Yahweh says that as much as He brought evil to His people for their turning away from Him, He will bring just as much good to those who return.

• When Elohim says, “I shall give them one heart…”, is He just going to hand out new hearts to everybody?

• Ephesians chapter 2 talks to us about the opportunity given to us to become what?

Moving to Isaiah 1:16-20, Rabbi Berkson points out that with a holistic understanding of Scripture, it’s not possible to get the message that Elohim just gives us everything. He also points out that the Scriptures can be used by many to draw erroneous conclusions.

• What is a ‘holistic’ approach to the Scriptures?

• How could someone prove from Scripture that their chicken was the Messiah?

• What is evil? How does Yahweh define evil?

• When Elohim says, “Come let us reason together…” (Isaiah 1:18), does that mean Yahweh wants your input?

In Isaiah chapter 58, Rabbi Steve clarifies that to truly be in covenant with our Creator, two things must work together.

• Is this chapter only referring to Yom Kippur?

• Doesn’t Elohim always respond to fasting and afflicting ourselves?

• What are the two things it takes to please Elohim?

• How does Rabbi Berkson interpret ‘speaking your own words’?

Verse-by-verse and step-by-step, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us on a journey of discovery as we learn how to covenant with our Creator and Father, which, from time to time, requires us to turn around and return (Shuva) to His Word so that we can have a sure entrance into His Kingdom.

Parsha ‘Matot’ (Numbers 30:2 through chapter 32) is one of those that Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship thinks, because of the “not-politically-correct” and thus too often utterly neglected chapter 30, deserves much more attention that it gets, particularly for reasons he tries to make clear.

The Erev Shabbat reading is certainly an introduction:

The Sabbath day midrash begins by making clear, at least in part, why Mark is not a fan of combining Numbers chapter 30 into a double-portion. BUT, at least there are certainly consistent threads that link them, and demonstrate WHY honoring our word is so vital.

The ‘rest of the story’ is why civilization collapses without it. And we’re there.

And Numbers chapter 30 is at the heart of most of it.

Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship worship services and teachings are broadcast live every Sabbath, via Paltalk. (www.paltalk.com has both the link, and the app.) The “room name” is “Walking Torah with Shabbat Shalom Mesa,” and can be found via the paltalk search, then bookmarked.

Erev Shabbat services begin at 7:00 PM Mountain Time Friday evenings (9 PM Eastern, 8 PM Central)

Live Sabbath teachings begin shortly after 11 AM Mountain time on Sabbath day (Saturday).

Host Mark Call takes a look back at some of the major news stories of the week ending 11 July, 2026.

Some of them may even sound familiar; but this time probably really IS different.

[And – the audio issue is fixed.]

Daniel Chp 11

An “existential threat” is something that is deadly — whether to individuals, or entire societies. Or even the whole world.

Some of them, like nuclear war, or a solar CME ‘extinction event,’ we may not be able to do anything about.

But there are others that we CAN understand, and even avoid. The important related question is, “do we have the knowledge – and will – to DO it?”

“What I learned from FYING…or,
