Do you have a favorite Christmas carol? Though we don’t sing them at Christmastime, the book of Luke records songs by three special people in the narrative of Jesus’ birth. Chris opens a three-part series on these songs by discussing Mary’s famous song of worship in Luke 1 before she gave birth to Jesus. Her praise of the Lord captures the heart of the Abrahamic Covenant and God’s faithfulness to His people, inviting all Israel and even the whole world to recognize that He was keeping His promise by sending the Messiah!

God is sovereign over the entire universe. But what happens when we reject His sovereignty over our lives? Dan Price provides the answer this week as he shares insight on the foolishness of rejecting the sovereign God of heaven and Earth from his latest article in Israel My Glory magazine. Here’s the good news: Whether you’ve rejected Jesus as your Savior or you’re struggling to give Him full control of your life, you will find unequaled joy and freedom when you fully submit to Him! Find practical encouragement to help you live for the Lord on this week’s broadcast!

In Leviticus, God’s Law provided for unholy human beings—the children of Israel—to live in the midst of their holy God. When we get to the book of Ephesians, something amazing happens. Through Jesus’ death on the cross and resurrection, the division via purification laws that prevented Gentiles from worshiping God at the Temple was erased. Now, Jewish people and Gentiles who believe in Jesus are bound together by the indwelling Holy Spirit! We hope our study has made the goodness of the gospel revealed through the Temple all the more vivid and powerful in your life!

In Ephesians 2, the apostle Paul explained that Gentiles, who were once far from God and didn’t know Him, now have access to Him through Jesus, the Son of God. But does this mean the special relationship the Jewish people have with God is now gone? Part 2 of our series on the Temple structure and the gospel digs into Ephesians 2 to explain the beautiful truth that, through His death and resurrection, Christ gave Jewish and Gentile believers equal access to boldly approach His throne of grace!

The Second Temple was the heart of the Jewish people’s worship of the Lord God, purposefully designed to accentuate God’s holiness. This week we begin a three-part series on how the design of Herod’s Temple and its distinction between holy and common illuminates our understanding of Ephesians 2—particularly in relation to Gentiles being brought near to God. Journey with us as we discover what the Second Temple teaches about God, His holiness, and the Good News of the gospel!

Studying the striking imagery of Isaiah 62, we rejoice in the fact that Israel’s salvation is coming—and with this salvation comes its Redeemer too! Chris shares several major motivations for loving the Jewish people this week in the conclusion of our series on Christians combating antisemitism. We stand with God’s Chosen People not to earn favor with Him or the Jewish people, but because we seek to obey and follow Him who has already shown us His favor and grace. Let us boldly love, serve, and defend Israel and the Jewish people with every opportunity we encounter!

It’s become increasingly popular to hate Israel and the Jewish people. That’s why it’s so important that Bible-believing Christians stand boldly for them! As we continue our series on Christians combating antisemitism, we take a look at the watchmen of Isaiah 62, whom God trusted as spiritual guardians of Israel.

Jewish people around the world are targeted for persecution. Will you come to their defense? This responsibility has always been at the heart of The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry, and we rejoice when we see other Christians around the world taking it on too. Chris begins a three-part series on believers’ mandate to combat antisemitism and defend God’s Chosen People, studying the prophet’s declaration, “For Zion’s sake, I will not keep silent.” We share Isaiah’s confident hope for the future: that one day, God will completely restore Zion, and Jesus the Messiah will reign from Jerusalem!

The joyous, biblical celebration of Sukkot is upon us! As God commanded in Leviticus 23, the Jewish people today continue to make “booths,” or temporary shelters, called sukkahs during this Feast of Tabernacles to remember how the Israelites lived during their wandering in the wilderness thousands of years ago. Sukkot proclaims three wonderful truths about God: He provides, He protects, and He is present. Uncover the richness of this special scriptural holiday to ancient Israel and the lasting lessons it teaches us today!
