Matthew Hoffmann runs Empyr Coffee, which white-labels coffee for brands such as The Chosen. Hoffmann is passionate about doing business with fellow believers, rather than amoral big box stores. It’s the idea of living out the Hebrew word: fargun. He’ll talk about an upcoming Hebrew-run app called United City that may help do just that.

Dawn Milberger has survived some of the most horrific acts you can imagine. In this episode, she tells her story (one that includes attempted abortion, sexual assault, marital infidelity and finding Torah) and shares the one powerful phrase that’s unlocked her ability to forgive when forgiveness feels impossible.

Dawn was born with and lives successfully with a rare form of muscular dystrophy along with Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome. Regardless of her health challenges, Dawn has been speaking publicly about her adoption & abortion survival for 40 years. Throughout her journey, Dawn's been blessed to be on numerous boards, counseling panels for pregnancy centers, fundraisers of all sizes for various ministries, clubs, and pro-life groups. She's hosted Ladies Forgiveness Brunches teaching and giving application forgiveness of difficult issues to the wounded. She joined forces with the Justice Foundation in 2015 on the Heartbeat Bill banning abortions after 6 weeks giving numerous interviews and testimonies worldwide. She was sought out to submit her testimony for the very first De-fund Planned Parenthood Hearing and the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. She's been featured on Bread of Life Radio, Life News, Epoch Times, among many others. In Spring of 2019 she gladly accepted a position as member of the Board of Directors for the Abortion Survivors Network.

Dawn and her husband of 24 years live in the beautiful hill country of Texas with their three dogs. Dawn enjoys reading her Bible, gardening, decorating, cooking and canning all the bounty from their gardens.

Nathan Lawrence unpacks the spiritual truths he’s learned growing up as a shepherd and in his long career as a professional arborist. He discusses the value of physical labor, why time in nature is critical to our relationships with Yah and why the New Testament can be trusted.

Christy Jordan knows Larry the Cucumber. It's true. She also started and eventually sold a viral food blog called Southern Plate, released several cookbooks and became an editor at Southern Living Magazine.

David Stelzer, CEO and Founder of Azure Standard, talks all about how he found the wisdom of Torah through farming and how he and his family built Azure—the largest independent natural, non-GMO and organic food distributor in the country. They also only sell biblically clean food! 

In this interview, Lex Meyer walks us through practical Torah basics, from how tzitzits can be worn to the general rules of Shabbat to what the feasts mean and how they point to Yeshua. We discuss traditions of all sorts and Lex shares how he decides which to adopt and which to reject. He also talks about how some Hebrew Roots "teachers" with no grounding or mentors are teaching heresy and leading people astray.

Constance Smith of Cosmopolitan Cornbread is passionate about living a simpler, slower, faith-filled life in the mountains of Arkansas. Her blog and YouTube channel are filled with homesteading guidance, from scratch (biblically clean) recipes and inspiration to get back to the basics.

In this interview, Jim Staley talks about the “pressure cooker” that was his 55-months in a Federal Prison and the ways in which he emerged a new man. He describes the literal deletion of his Passion for Truth “1.0” teachings, the prophecies that shaped the course of his life and ministry, what God is revealing to the mainstream Christian church right now and the new church model “Passion for Truth 2.0” has adopted since his return.

Jim Staley has been married to his bride Cheryl since 1996 and together they have six beautiful daughters, all on fire for the Lord. He is the director and founder of Passion for Truth Ministries, and his teachings have reached millions of people worldwide, opening their eyes to what he calls the Christian Roots of our faith.
