Part 1 - ELUL: Inspection
We’re beginning a new series for the month of Elul.
I know, I know… Soul-accounting, digging into the places we’d rather leave hidden. Many of us would rather avoid inspection. It’s uncomfortable. It raises memories, regrets, and wounds. Yet God invites us into these forty days not to shame us, but to heal us.
Are you excited to dig deep, to actually hold the magnifying glass up to our own hearts?
This week’s message will challenge us to go beyond repeating the cycle year after year, and instead climb higher. It begins with the inspection.
Join us as we start this journey of Elul together.

Baseless Hatred, Part 6
What if the Church’s most persistent bias isn’t loud hatred—but a quiet story-shape that sidelines Israel? This series conclusion will show why Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation, tells a different story than the one many assume is right. If Israel seems like just the prologue in your faith, this will properly reframe that. Watch to rediscover the Bible’s true plan and reconnect with the true story of God’s faithfulness.

Baseless Hatred, Part 5
Why Didn’t the Jews Just Believe in Jesus? It’s a question people still ask today. But what if the answer has less to do with blindness… and more to do with BETRAYAL? This week, we peel back the layers of history to uncover what was really happening in the early centuries of the Church and why the message of Jesus became, for many Jews, a message of erasure rather than inclusion. The story of Roman emperors and church councils lead to a devastating shift as the “Good News” was framed in a way that made it impossible to receive? Part 5 of Baseless Hatred: The Roots of Christian Antisemitism illustrates historically why the church and synagogue would be at odds for millennia to come.

Baseless Hatred, Part 4
"THESE SCRIPTURES ARE NOT YOURS, BUT OURS" -Justin Martyr
What if the theology you’ve inherited isn’t rooted in Scripture at all, but in a 2nd-century backlash against Judaism? Meet the architects of supersessionism—Justin Martyr, Melito of Sardis, Tertullian—who forged the idea that “true Israel” isn’t an ethnic lineage but a faith community. In this episode, we're diving deep into a fascinating yet troubling period of history when Christian leaders developed creative new interpretations to claim they were the "True Israel," while the Jewish people were... well, you'll have to tune in to find out. Don't miss this critical piece of the story.

Don’t know where to start?
This series will introduce you to Jesus in His Jewish context.
The Jewish Jesus
It sounds so simple and obvious: The Jewish Jesus. But this essential truth has been lost to nearly all of his followers. Why has the Jewishness of Jesus been downplayed or even denied throughout a large part of history? Why is this one simple fact critical to our relationship with him?
