There's no doubt that Paul can be difficulty to understand. In this week's message Jonathan unpacks his arguments about circumcision, gentiles and the Torah.

Jonathan begins a journey through the difficult passages of Galatians to show how they actually uphold the idea of Torah Observance, not as a means of salvation, but as a tool of sanctification. This series will focus on several of the difficult passages and how we can understand them in the historical and literary context of the book.

One of the biggest challenges that we can face every day is our own ego. Our ego can cause us to see ourselves as more important than we really are. While it's good to be confident, being full of ourselves can make it difficult to treat others how HaShem commands us to.

Often in our zeal for faith we use the tools given to us to beat those around us into submission. Jonathan discusses how Messianics often turn into Torah Terrorists to fellow believers and how Yeshua expects us to act.

Riley compares the perspective of Pharaoh and Moses and how they each looked at the Israelite slaves. These perspectives can often mirror our own, for good or bad. Pulling from specific examples in the first chapters of Exodus, Riley encourages us to look at others in the light of who they could be in Elohim, and not where they were or are.

Jonathan continues a look at the mission and purpose of the body of Messiah. This week we focus on Prayer, Study and Testimony and three tools available to help us accomplish what we were called for.

There's no denying that Hanukkah has been painted as the "Jewish Christmas." Most people are unaware of the bold history and powerful message of Hanukkah, however. What revelations can we find once we begin to look at this holiday? More importantly what can those revelations show us and how can we apply them today?

Many of us understand what the Gospel is, but when we try to put it into words we sometimes seem to come up short. We know that we have an active role in sharing that, but as the ekklesia, what does that look like? Let's open up our Scriptures and search these things out together!

Join us this week as Jonathan looks to 1 Corinthians 12:27 to answer the question of who or what the body of Messiah Yeshua is. From there we go to the first chapter of Mark to begin searching out what the Messiah's mission was and to discover where these citations originated from in the Tanakh.

This week, we begin to examine the concept of how Elohim can dwell among us. While it is true that He is the Exalted One who dwells in the Heavens, is that where He chooses to remain? There is no standing temple for Him to reside in, so where do we find Him? More importantly, how can we recognize His presence?

Using the Sword of the Spirit from Ephesians 6 as a starting point, Jonathan moves to 2 Timothy 2-3 to discover what it takes for believers to correctly handle the word of Elohim.
